OPPO Sonica

Worlds biggest mistake buying this. Picked up a used device on eBay not realizing it was 100% dependent upon the app. The app just shuts down every time I try to launch it. I just bought a $1000 paper weight. If I had someone from Oppo in front of me right now I’d disembowel them.

App keep crashing on iPhone XS but work fine on 11 Pro max with same iOS versions 14.7.1

iOS 13 deemed the app inoperable. While this device is no longer produced, the developers could’ve at least pushed out a final stable build that would work for future OS updates to come. This is not the case. Shows that the company doesn’t care for the satisfaction of its long standing customers, but instead just the revenue they produce from their current product line up. For reference, when I tried reaching out they replied “thank you for bringing up your concern”. Have not received any further correspondence since.

The app keeps crashing with in seconds of launching on iOS 14.5 both on iPhone and iPad, rendering the app and my Sonica Dac completely useless!!

Well, what a bummer. I bought a stereo pair of speakers that I use heavily, based on my years of great experiences with many Oppo products. Unfortunately, they decided to get out of the hardware business shortly thereafter. But they still supported the app for a while, so it was not a total loss. Until now. After iOS 13 came out, the app crashed right after startup. Which renders the stereo pair totally inoperable. I can play through one speaker without using the app, but strangely I only get one channel of audio. So basically I have two very expensive bricks. Update. So a year later they released a new version, claiming it fixes the iOS 13 problem. Do not believe it. The app still crashes on startup. Two expensive speakers are still bricks.

After the latest update of the application on ios 13 it crushes when try use the function "remote control". So you did not fix ios 13 issues but created the issue. Please fix it asap!

Thanks for keeping the app alive. I use it often to stream Tidal directly to Sonica and, of course, as a remote control. It’s not perfect (none are) and I like the album art and layout better than on the Tidal app.

Oppo finally issued update to fix issues with ios 13. However, it seems no one at oppo even tried to use it on ios 13 device. When the screen of ios device goes off and you switch it back on, Sonica app restarts and if you were deep in some albums or tracks, you are just thrown to the home screen and have to start from the beginning. Awful update. I suggest to stay away from Oppo products. Whether it is audio or smartphones, such support just shows how company stands behind their products. Shame on you Oppo team.

Oppo advises that the app no longer supports IOS 13 meaning my Sonica can’t connect to my WiFi. One star for Bluetooth at least still working.

Nothing to add. Hope Oppo can fix though I know the product is no longer produced.
