5/5Great app for Apple Music hi-res audio
Very well implemented functionality to control one Apple device that’s wired to a DAC/amp from another for listening to true hi-res audio. This app replicates Apple Music on two or more devices on the same network, so that while one is hard-wired to an external DAC, it can be fully controlled from a second device. Pay for it once (greatly preferred to a subscription!), install it on two or more devices; set one as your source, and another as a mirrored remote, and what you see on one, the other is actually playing. I have my iPad connected to a DAC/amp through a USB-optical audio adapter, and can control it from across the room from my iPhone. It works flawlessly, doing anything you can do in the Apple Music app without ever leaving the couch once the iPad is plugged in. I’d give it 10 stars if I could. Great job!

5/5Finally Apple Music Works
I have a deep appreciation for the developer of Lysonic. What they did Apple was unable to do. Not only do I now have a working remote for Apple Music but the music sounds better! The interface is very similar to Apple Music so there is very little learning curve. Lysonic works from my iPhone, iPad and MacBook. Same music plays so it is seamless going from one interface to the other. There are still bugs to work out, some lag, some tracks that will not play but this is a small sacrifice. Apple’s Remote was tragic and getting worse with every system update. So glad to have Lysonic.

5/5Unique app. Excellent support.
The developer is the most friendly customer support I have ever come across. He also keeps the app frequently updated and adds new features to the extent that Apple allows it. The app is now relatively stable, with understandable amount of bugs and quirks here and there, but once you get it going, it works rather well. Overall, highly recommended for it's unique features and excellent support.

5/5Perfect for Audiophiles using Apple Music as their platform
Downloaded this app as I was looking for a way to control my iPhone/iPad connected to my hifi setup. This worked flawlessly and is a perfect substitute to SpotifyConnect. It works just like SpotifyConnect but with Apple Music. You will need to install it on two devices (the playing device and remote control device). Fairly easy to setup.

5/5A must have for any audiophile
I’m thrilled to have discovered this app. Finally, I can remotely control Apple Music playing on my hifi-connected iPad using my iPhone. The iPad is connected to an external DAC via USB, and stream hires lossless music to my stereo. Without this app, there’s no way to control the iPad without getting up from my sofa and interacting on the iPad directly. Now that’s no longer necessary!

          "body": "Very well implemented functionality to control one Apple device that’s wired to a DAC/amp from another for listening to true hi-res audio. This app replicates Apple Music on two or more devices on the same network, so that while one is hard-wired to an external DAC, it can be fully controlled from a second device. Pay for it once (greatly preferred to a subscription!), install it on two or more devices; set one as your source, and another as a mirrored remote, and what you see on one, the other is actually playing. I have my iPad connected to a DAC/amp through a USB-optical audio adapter, and can control it from across the room from my iPhone. It works flawlessly, doing anything you can do in the Apple Music app without ever leaving the couch once the iPad is plugged in. I’d give it 10 stars if I could. Great job!",

          "body": "I have a deep appreciation for the developer of Lysonic. What they did Apple was unable to do. Not only do I now have a working remote for Apple Music but the music sounds better! The interface is very similar to Apple Music so there is very little learning curve. Lysonic works from my iPhone, iPad and MacBook. Same music plays so it is seamless going from one interface to the other. There are still bugs to work out, some lag, some tracks that will not play but this is a small sacrifice. Apple’s Remote was tragic and getting worse with every system update. So glad to have Lysonic.",

Overall, highly recommended for it's unique features and excellent support.",

Includes an option to black out iOS screens entirely (an alternative to sleep). New/Updated Settings - Restore your previous session, including queue and volume setting. - Refreshed Rate and Review flow. - Library Sync options: limit to Wi-Fi only, and reset the local cache. - History view is persistent, keeping the last 50 entries. - Clearer descriptions throughout. Views - Refreshed layout for albums and playlists on iPad. - Recently Played on the Home view updates live as songs play. Playlists - Track sorting for library playlists, on all platforms. - \"NEW\" tags in Playlists stay for the day rather than disappearing after a single view. Playback - Smoother queue animations: the list scrolls up as a new song starts, and animates cleanly when a song is removed. - The queue view stays in place when you delete a song instead of resetting to the top. - The queue context menu now includes Favorite, Suggest Less, View Lyrics in Shazam, and the other options available elsewhere in the app. - Station playback is more stable: the Next button no longer restarts the current song or skips multiple tracks, the queue stays accurate, and the upcoming station song appears within seconds. - Multi-device sync is more reliable, with cleaner reconnects on launch. Specific to Mac - Create playlists, add to playlists (with multi-playlist selection) and add to Library. - Smart playlists appear in the playlist tab. - Media keys are supported. - The close button minimises the window instead of quitting. - Sharing logs and crash reports works correctly. Also in This Release - Context menus expanded and reorganised for consistency across the app. - Translations updated across all supported languages. - \"Date Added\" filter for Library songs works correctly. - Crash fixes, bug fixes and other UI improvements also included across all platforms."
