## AV Receiver Remote Reviews in United States

### *---- "Junk"
Nothing works
-- tabarsi00, 2023-07-19

### *---- "Not Working"
The app is dead already. Not working with STR DN1040. Why it’s still available in appstore ?!
-- Mostafiz_Riyan, 2023-07-16

### ***-- "Needs background support"
Great app if you own their receivers. Does need a fresh look for iOS 7. Also needs to work while in a call. I believe it used to back on iOS 6 Please update app to support multitasking. Background App Refresh. I don&#039;t care what anyone says. Pull up your switcher and close it when you are done. This is a must. I do not want to wait to reconnect every time I leave the app for something. Put a time out for 30 minutes or make an option for us to enable or disable this requested feature. And possibly a time out option we can specify. I am on a iPhone 4s IOS 5.1 and have no problems other then the request for background/multitasking support. So like Nike says... Do it! Then this will get five stars. Otherwise this is dated for IOS 3 with no multitasking feature supported in IOS update it already. Get with the times. Using with AV STR-DN2010

Update: 11/06/2022 iPhone 14 Pro Max
Above requests too. 
Would love to see it updated to support larger screens. Also, a VPN Support. 
Haven’t seen an update for 4 years. Yikes!
-- Nokto, 2022-11-06

### *---- "Junk!"
Won’t support my STR DN1050 which is barely 2 years old. Come to find Sony decided not to support my receiver at all! 
Advice: Don’t buy any Sony receiver ever as they will most likely not support it in just a couple years.

BAD MOVE Sony!!!!!!
-- Jebdean1, 2017-11-05

### *---- "Awful"
Could not get it to work. Judging from the comments here it looks like Sony is not doing any more development on this app.
-- jeff-d, 2017-03-04

### *---- "IOS Compatibility Update Needed"
I am a Sony Home Entertainment products fan. Would love to use this with my Sony products. Received Apple dialog box informing me that this application should be updated to be more compatible with new iOS and devices. Thank you!
-- IslandWino, 2017-01-07

### *---- "Remote app"
Won&#039;t connect with new Apple OS update. Sony needs to update the app. Terrible customer support.
-- Depair, 2016-03-25

### *---- "STR-DN1060/STR-DN860 support"
This app does not support my Sony Device.
-- StellarTEK, 2016-01-10

### ***-- "Used to work hashtag emoji"
Not sure if it was upgrading to a new iPhone 6 Plus or the recent iOS 9 update but I am no longer able to connect. I&#039;ve reinstalled the app but to no avail... STR-DA5600ES; the system is on the network (I can stream groove salad over shout cast) but this app can&#039;t find it...
-- ToyDoctor, 2015-12-21

### *---- "Won&#039;t connect!"
What good is it if it won&#039;t connect????
