Airplay, chromecast, if I streamed to these devices, the music cannot stop. Have to reboot HomePod etc

Although that I had put songs in the same folder, they still can’t appear as one album. Another big issue is, some Chinese file names are not displayed correctly, and you can’t rename them in the app. Please add rename function. I tried to correct through album info, no use. Show more

Every time I go to use this app - it does not work properly.

So i love this app. I love what it does. I hate that it’s so cluttered with unnecessary and inconsistent behaviors. ESPECIALLY on the carplay app. In carplay, i should be able to navigate easily to songs, albums, artists, playlists etc but i can’t do any of that. It’s extremely difficult to use in the car and dangerous as it encourages you to use it on your phone instead. The pins are where this app shines. However, it still needs basic functions. I would love to talk to the devs to give my opinions on what they should do to improve ds audio because it could be the reason people buy Synology’s Nas for their lossless and other such music collection to avoid streaming services Show more

Hi could you please add a button ‘delete the song from nas’ Thank you

It would be nice if you could change the default window the app boots into. Also, I'd like if there were the option to keep yourself logged in while the app isn't playing but is still open in the background. Other than those things, the app works quite well. Show more

simple and elegant app, but seems to have some bugs in how metadata/artwork is handled.

I have a Synology NAS ds3018xs on which I installed Audio Station, a Synology product. I have 600 GB of music on it, all FLAC, ALAC, MP3s. I’ve used DS Audio for months to access the music and sometimes use DS File to maintain the library. DS Audio has worked without a hitch. Love it. I run it on my phone out and about and am able to stream CD quality lossless to a B1 Audioengine BT device which can pass lossless through its optical out to my Bifrost DAC at home. From the NAS I can also play directly out the USB 3.0 port on the back of the NAS directly to my Bifrost DAC. I also have roon, plex, Tidal, and others. DS Audio is straight forward and simple and my preferred way to play music. It took me a bit to learn the app and a bit to get the NAS up just the way I wanted it. I don’t have any faults to report. There is a good user community, accurate documentation, and years of usage if you get stuck. Show more

The app is great, but I am seeing some things that could use some improving or changes. Currently I do not see an option to create playlists. You should also be able to edit and add tracks to playlists. I also would like a way to scroll through my library by song rather than just artist/album. Show more

1) Runs into myriad problems trying to set this up with Amazon Alexa. 2) Struggles to log in outside of home network. By “struggles” I mean almost NEVER logs in. Constantly logs you out too so you can be utterly screwed. 3) can’t scrub through some songs, despite other apps (iTunes, VLC, etc) not having the same problem with those same audio files. Want to go back 5 seconds in your song? Want to skip to your favorite part? Sorry, you have to listen from the beginning. Conclusion: Just get Spotify or Apple Music. This garbage isn’t worth it. This is the single most frustrating app I’ve ever used. Show more

Yes you can play signs from your synology NAS with this app but that’s all. If your looking for an app that adds a lot of nice features this isn’t it. I can’t do basic things other music apps can do. The number one thing I wanted from this app was siriKit, the ability to say “ hey Siri, play xyz” and this app doesn’t have support for that. Show more

Wheres the dark mode at?

Really hard to use for CarPlay without having auto-login. I want to use DS audio to get to music on my server that’s not on my phone. You have to pick up phone and go through login to get to your library. You have auto-login (“Remember Me” setting) for “DS file” and “DS cam” apps, please do same for this one! Show more

For anyone out there who was holding off on iOS 14 because of the bugs in DS Audio, I’m happy to report that Synology’s latest update has fixed both. The app is usable again! Show more

App is crashing on iOS 14.2 The app can be open but when I tap on login the app crash. Can’t login. Thank you

Used it all the time, now that I upgraded to IOS 14 albums are missing from my phone and a large majority of albums contain maybe 2 songs while the others are missing. They are all still properly on the NAS and I resync’d my personal folders so it’s not that. Everything was working great until the update. Show more

When I used this app in CarPlay and come back the next morning, it shows that it’s logging in. I can log in on the phone, and the CarPlay display still shows logging in. If I start another music app, it can’t take the place of the ds audio app on the display. It’s like it crashed and won’t release. Show more

It’s a great app. I have been using it for years and for years, you only had to sign in once a day. Now, for some reason, it logs you off when you stop using it, even for a minute. Hoping this can be fixed. Show more

The description says it needs “Audio Station” installed for all features to work. In fact, it requires this for any features to work! It caches 2GB by default, so be sure to fix that. It’s surprisingly slow to list my tracks. Viewing the same music library from iTunes on my Mac is far faster, on the same network. I guess it uses different fields for classifying music than iTunes, because the views are pretty different, too. The transcoding options are not clear, and the help is not helpful. But it works. It does play my music. Show more

This app is absolutely fantastic in the fact I can use it to stream my music to all my devices but one issue that I have found is that I can not scrub the song forward or backward while it is playing. I’m not quite sure why that is but It’s frustrating. Effectively what happens is when I try to scrub through a playing song the scrub bar will just jump back to It’s current position & not update to the new location within the song. I really hope that this reaches the developers since as I see that this app hasn’t been updated for over a year which is a tad concerning. Show more
