It almost never connects. And when it does it doesn’t do anything. The remote doesn’t work settings don’t work. Can’t control anything. It’s garbage. Doesn’t work at all. -- Aberns, 2025-06-01 ### ****- "Almost perfect" The problem with the app is thatnit gets lost in its own steps via Bluetooth. If the Bluetooth comms can be rectified, it would be a lot better. My receiver's menu is layers and levels deep. This makes it a lot easier to navigate. I spent 2 days using the receiver's menu, and an hour using the app to tweak the unit. If it stays stable, you can tweak the unit and then drive to remote control it. Only limited to your Bluetooth range. Would have been 5 stars had the app been a little more responsive. Could use a reset receiver function to start over. I'm good with it -- More Toast, 2025-04-02 ### **--- "App" Absolutely garbage. Unstable and hard to connect. Would be nice if it worked. -- Blah blah !!!!, 2025-03-03 ### *---- "Terrible" If you can get it to connect that’s a big if btw. If you get lucky and establish connection it will never actually load anything for you to tune this app is a huge failure and whom ever is in charge of the integrity of the app in its entirety should be on his way to the unemployment office today. A 3 year old could of done a better job 💯😑 -- Topher2199, 2024-12-03 ### **--- "Opens Up Automatically" There’s a setting to disable the Auto-Open when you connect via Bluetooth, but it actually does nothing. Super annoying when I turn my car on, try to use my phone for something only to have it automatically open the app and take me out of anything I was doing. Genuinely kills the app for me. Please fix. -- Midnispskssnnyname, 2024-09-13 ### *---- "Repeatedly disconnecting" This is a very poorly engineered app. A huge embarrassment for purportedly a quality electronics company like Kenwood. Using an IPhone 12 running ios17.5.1 the app repeatedly disconnects and won’t stay connected in the background so if you try doing anything else on your phone you lose connection to the kenwood digital receiver!! Glitchy and only limited controls for SiriusXM. Also no Att or mute button on face of radio so Only way to access Att/mute without a steering wheel control is the disconnected app! Annoying at best and no way to win over customers!! Kenwood needs to get serious about decent app engineering and updates!! -- Audience will leave, 2024-06-01 ### **--- "Needs improvement" The app has to be shutdown and reopened if you leave the Kenwood remote app, or switch between apps. For example- I use Spotify and when I switch between the two apps, the kenwood app loses connection. -- OG-ChiefJosh, 2024-03-21 ### *---- "Dose not work" Don’t waist you data or time not worth it it half way works just connect ur radio to blue tooth and don’t worry about a app -- amazon1236, 2023-11-19 ### ****- "Works on iPhone 15 2023 but WIRED ONLY" App works fine on KMM BT728HD but deck must be set up to accept the 'Remote App' for iOS or Android and it will show 'R.APP' in the display when it works. Does crash sometimes but made setting up time alignment mich easier -- Kieran Christophe, 2023-10-25 ### *---- "Trash" I’ve had my receiver for 2 years and this app has been this uncared for and problematic since. Seeing the reviews it looks like it goes back 6 years so if anyone wants to figure out how to get the app so we can actually make a good app that’d be amazing. -- Chief141728, 2023-09-26 [View all KENWOOD Remote reviews and detailed analytics on AppTail](https://app.apptail.io/signup?utm_campaign=ai-crawl&utm_content=reviews) ## KENWOOD Remote Store Rankings | Chart | Country | Category | Rank | |-------|---------|----------|------| | Top Free | Pakistan | Music | #125 | | Top Free | Ecuador | Music | #244 | ## KENWOOD Remote Discovered Keywords -
