The reviews said the search function was incredibly slow, but I didn't realize that meant waiting 15 minutes and still not a single song showing up. I assumed other bad reviews must have been user error. But this is literally a $10 brick of an app. It performs zero functional actions from what I can see. Downloaded an alternative. Definitely want a refund. Show more

Very disappointed! $40 & I can't even use it! Beware!

great no setting up just works

This remote for Fidelia doesn't work running 10.10.5 and IOS 9.0.2. Useless, attempting to get a refund.

I love Fidelia, it's the cheapest of the Audiophile music players, but the remote is lacking in major features. I would love to be able to have more control from my phone; shuffle, repeat, access the equalizer settings, would be great additions. Also, this app is really buggy, many times failing to connect unless I restart either the app on my phone or my computer. All in all, if it actually worked, I would give this a 4 stars, until much needed features were added. Show more

I have used Fidelia for a couple of years. As a music player, I like it very much. I decided to try the remote app although I thought that the price was too high given the fact that I've already spent a lot of money buying the music player. This is a very basic remote. It only allows you to control playback and volume. There is no access to any EQ functions. The player software must be running on your Mac in order to use the remote. The app gives you access to your music library and playlists. You can sort the library by song artist or album as well as search the library. In that respect it is more user-friendly than the player itself. In summary, this is a useful app, but it is too expensive given the price of the music player software and it's advanced add-ins. The other minus is that you can't access all the functions of the player software. Show more

It is a fine interface but really needs to add an ability to create a playlist on the fly and/or at least cue a next up song. It would make the remote so much more useful. Show more

Good remote. Too expensive, should be about $2.99 at most. An easier way to switch between computers would be nice.

While the host application still has some strange GUI quirks, the remote app is simply fabulous. Design is clear and simple, yet elegant. On a tech side, it took the app under three seconds to find a computer running Fidelia and required no configuring. The library loaded also in a matter of seconds. Getting Fidelia streaming 24bit / 192 kHz stereo via Airfoil to an AirPort Express took zero effort. I am am not sure what is the nature of a problem described in Adrian Reynolds' review as he never specified what kind of WiFi network he is running. Most likely, library loading speed is a function of network bandwidth... Show more

I wish the Mac app could browse by artist and album. Was fast and functional for me. Now if they'd only publish the wire protocol, so I can make a "now playing" script for my IRC client. Show more

I wish I could say this app was working well for me, but it isn't. It connects to my mac quickly, but: 1.) It loads up my fidelia library extremely slowly, if ever. As in, right now it's 64% done after 15 minutes. I think it's actually loaded the full library twice in maybe 40 attempts. 2.) Sometimes, the app actually manages to disconnect AND disable my wifi while trying to load the library! I have to manually go into the Settings to turn the wifi back on and try to get this app to work again. 3.) The slider doesn't really keep up with the song being played. It just kinda jumps to the general area that the song is in. It almost never shows the net track playing. I have noted that if I don't try to load the library, it can do the basic functions correctly...but the library is something of a critical component. So basically, it fails dramatically at doing the most important thing it's sold as being able to do. I'll try removing and reinstalling the app as a last-ditch effort...but I don't know what to say. It's baffling how bad this is compared to the excellent Fidelia music player itself. Here's hoping a future update or reinstall will fix these problems. Guess I shouldn't have jumped in without more than 2 reviews. Show more

This is a fantastic app for those of us who DJ and sometimes get away from the computer. It's incredibly fast to connect and there is little to no lag with button presses. Show more

After getting a number of different remotes and music playback programs, Fidelia is clearly the best. This remote is responsive, stylish and well designed. The other remote programs I use have occasional difficulty connecting to my MacBook Pro over my home network. The Fidelia remote connects every time. The only improvement I would want is a search function to the navigation. This is a great remote!! Show more
