The Grace Digital Controller app works with the new Grace Digital Mondo+. (The Controller app does not work with the previous Mondo, or other legacy Grace Digital radios). The Grace Controller manages the features of the Mondo+ including changing stations, volume change, setting alarms, as well as grouping of radios for a multi-room audio synchronized music system.

Was good then it just fell apart
This app was good, doing everything you needed to do with the exception of adding presets (which someone already commented about). Sometime around the global lockdown or the latest ver. if iOS, it just feel as part! The thing I miss the most is being able to put the radio info standby, or return to the Home Screen quickly instead of hitting the back button; things you could do in the earlier ver. of the app.. The volume slider is too low on the screen and will bring you to the app switcher almost every time. I with the developers would update this to squash these and the other ugs that have developed in the app. On the other hand, the fact that it runs at all, and especially since Grace seems to be sucking wind, is amazing in itself.
Volume issues
Volumn control has issues. Volumn becomes the loudest setting without touching the app, phone, remote, or radio. Apparently there’s an issue with Chromecast which I absolutely hate and now can’t delete.
Useless volume control, rest clumsy to use
Developers: please tweak the volume interface
It is TOO close to < (play/pause) > controls, and to bottom of screen. And whatever needs doing so phone doesn’t think I’m swiping the whole screen right/left. It’s impossible to move volume slider. Because screen either swipes or play controls are activated instead.
Rest of software feels clumsy but usable. I am neutral about exactly how to redesign it, but indeed feels like much room for improvement.
Does not find device
Works sporadically. I bought a new Grace Link and this app worked once and has since been unable to find the device. When it worked (once) its functionality was minimal. You could not set Presets or Favorites from within the app, only on the radio itself. The legacy app for the legacy Grace radios was much better. Disappointed.
iOS version not working
This used to be quite functional, duplicating what the Mondo+ can do, but lately, when I try open the app, the screen flashes, and I get back to the Home Screen. Pretty frustrating. There appears to be a glitch. Hope it gets repaired soon.
The app is darn good
I don’t understand the low ratings. I had the Pre-legacy Mondo, and the app there was terrible. To rate this app like that app is absurd. I’m happy with what it does. The app helps make using the Mondo Elite a pleasure. There are 100 presets and bluetooth, so there’s a lot the app has to accomplish. It doesn’t do everything perfectly, but it’s quite useful. And it’s working with, and makes even better, a really top-notch radio. The only nit so far is that the sleep button only gives me ten minutes, and I cannot increase the time before the radio shuts down. But that’s in large part, the radio’s shortcoming (a glitch perhaps in my software/hardware) that the app does not solve. I’m hoping a future update of radio or app might address this.
Horrendous
This app is terrible. Constantly crashes and the previous model Is light years better. Only 10 presets, as previous reviewer said it crashes when adjusting alarm volume, and many other dysfunctional issues. Would never buy another product from this manufacturer. No stars
Whoever designs this should be replaced.
How this company survives is beyond me. The radio, the remote, the app and instructions appear to be designed and written by nerds who have never shown the devices or the manual to anyone who’s not a nerd. Everything is nearly impossible for their mother or for me to figure out and make work. My suggestion; next time you make it write something show it to your mother and don’t release it until she can make it work.
Amazing radio! Clunky app.
I absolutely love my Grace Digital Mondo+ radios - we have several, in various rooms - and I wish the app were as wonderful as the hardware is. Things are better than they used to be, but it’s still not super intuitive and could use a UI overhaul.
The old app for the older radios was much better
Open the app and tap the radio and it turns it on. Touch the white power circle and it turns off. Touch preset and it shows your presets and touch a preset and it plays it.
What it does NOT do is allow you to write a new preset or overwrite a preset. You must do that directly on the radio. The old app let you do that.
But you can set up to 100 presets on the radio and they will show up on the app.
