HiQnet Motion Control

It works… eventually. I want to throw all my equipment off the roof every time I have to update a control panel though, as it seems to only update when it wants to.

I am an integrator who regularly installs amp and speaker systems in people’s houses. This app does NOT work. It’s not even aspect ratio’d for current iPhone screens. Shame on Harmon for charging so much money for a terrible app. I just thought maybe it would give me some simple control during the install process. Nope. Couldn’t get it to connect to the amp. Crashed like 50 times. Just simply won’t work.

I decided to give it a shot despite the low ratings. I'm running an iPad on iOS 9.4.3 and I was able to get it to work. Make sure you're on the same network, and in Audio Architect make sure you're on the "Run Venue" option while online. As someone else mentioned, locking the panel settings seemed to help. It is very responsive while walking on the floor. No delay at all. Extremely useful for managing audio in a large facility and being able to hear the changes you're making while making them.

This review is written on 2/5/2021. I’m using iOS 14.4, and the app works exactly as it did 5 years ago. There was a point where I couldn’t get the phone to show up in Discovered devices. I logged on with tech support, and he couldn’t get it to pop up, either. Moments later, it just suddenly showed up in NetSetter, and has worked perfectly for several days. I’m certified with nearly all manufacturers of DSPs, and this app is by far the most powerful. Combined with truly beautiful wall remotes, there’s never been a time I couldn’t create highly functional A/V system control. Kudos to BSS Audio.

But it’s a pain to get there. The secret seems to be selecting “Lock App Settings” from the panel selection page in Audio Architect. That finally made the example panels go away and my panels appear. Controls worked but did look different. For example the output meters were all red rather than graduated.

The app works great. It took a little while to find the iPad control file on the network, but after it found it, the app has been working as expected.

The app simply doesn’t work with iOS12.

It doesn’t work I give it one star because There was not a negative five star I could give it.

App is not working with latest ios. And even when it worked, the titles of the areas did not appear on the main screen. One had to guess which area it would be in order to control the volumes...

If.... You can get the app to connect to your network (which is not as easy as it should be) the app works --o.k., but if you disconnect from the network, and reconnect later- all is lost. The example panels do not disable, and the subscription rate adjustment kicks you off the app. The panel design in audio architect gives you scroll bars on the iPhone panels when it's suppose to be a fixed screen size. If your image overlaps the panel edge, then the scroll bar appears. Overall- fairly disappointed with the quality for the 10 dollar price of the app. Until the bugs are fixed. I would not recommend the purchase of this app.
