HEOS

I wish Heos GUI is same as Tidal, Airplay,Spotify.

Volume control not working. Please fix!!

It’s July 2024 and they finally implemented Deezer Hi-Fi but the interface still looks and feels like it was made in the 90’s. It looks like an app that was made by developers without help from a user experience professional, as the interface lacks in features and functionality. I hope Deezer becomes able to stream directly to my Hi-Fi Denon Receiver (like Spotify does) in the future, so I won’t have to use this app to listen to music on my sound system anymore.

This works relatively well and has really simplified my home music system. Instead of wiring speakers all over the place I can use the denon wireless. The speakers work with airplay and Alexa too which is a plus. The music services on Heos are exactly what I need. The app has changed a lot and I’m still getting used it but it’s really easy to use once set up. My biggest issue with Heos is that the music via my wired speakers and Denon AV receiver is not in sync with the wireless speakers. I’ll have to play around with settings to fix.

The UI is old and outdated. It is not super user friendly either. There is an issue with using the volume buttons on my phone when the sound setting on my phone is set to “change with the buttons.” Also, I want to be able to search by audio resolution or make it more apparent when selecting music to listen to. Good luck

It’s so awful. Done everything to connect the amp. Seems like the alps are connected to the internet but the app can’t seems to connect to the amp. I have 5 gig WiFi 6, there should not be any issues with connection. Also the amps are wired connections and not WiFi.

Why does my HEOS act on its own? I have the Marantz ND8006 and I’m using HEOS to stream from music on my IPhone 14 Pro Max. It will be doing just fine then, switch to another song right in the middle of a song that’s playing; then, sometimes it will not play the next song as instructed. There are times it seems to have a mind of its own. When it’s working right, it’s great, but more often, it’s just doing what it pleases. I’m using the WiFi connection vs the Ethernet connection. It’s just very frustrating. There hasn’t been any updating the app in a while which means someone thinks it’s perfect. Pls do some work on this app. Someone had a great idea it just needs some fine tuning.

Developers, this app has the potential to be great, but a few shortcomings set it back. 1. Nobody wants to mess with constantly rearranging rooms/devices/speakers. Please allow us to create virtual groups (rooms) to combine same devices/speakers in multiple configurations. For example an upstairs group, a downstairs group and a whole house group in addition to being able to stream to dividual devices. Please make this happen. 2. If I group devices together, I don’t want them to get ungrouped without my input, ever. Please don’t make me “rebuild” my room every time after using Airplay or every time after I watch TV with Denon 550 soundbar that’s also paired to a few Heos Links. Please!!! I could ask for a lot more but this would be a fantastic start!

Perfect for use with the N12 HIfi system
