Pioneer Remote App

What seems like a good idea is ultimately super super glitchy and more trouble than what it’s worth because you constantly have to unplug and replug in or factory Reset your receiver . would say steer clear of this app until they can get it working right.

Solid app. Using on iOS devices. No complaints since 2019. Keeping the app updated makes it always perfect! Thank you!

Pioneer has more audio options than Yamaha.

Used this for 7 years for my lx-the 301. Worked better than icontrol. I tried this a few weeks ago and it would not work so must have had an update. All in all i’ve been pleased. Hope a new update fixes the problem i have now.

Will not connect, return your device if you still can.

Pioneer and Onkyo should be embarrassed by this all but useless remote app. I just upgraded my A/V receiver to the Elite VSX LX505 from my old VSX 1123, and I'm seriously considering returning the new unit just because the new Pioneer remote app is all but useless garbage. They need to learn from the designers of the iControlAV5 app. That app has SO much more functionality and the interface is beautiful compared to the new app's. It's like they designed it as barely an afterthought. Seriously Pioneer, why saddle such a beautiful, capable receiver with such a terrible remote app? You should be humiliated and embarrassed by it.

Why give up such well-developed technology. I can’t even find a balance control let alone the depth that the control app had. Going to make getting a optimum listening experience much harder. S EXTREMELY disappointing.

Tried to use Dirac live on my pioneer and got an error message (DU102) each time. Downloaded the Mac OS app and had no issues.

I tried to run through Dirac calibration using this pp and found the desktop version much easier to use. When using this app, the screen times out while I’m repositioning the microphone, forcing me to reinitialize setup for every mic position. Fortunately it does save the measurements, I just have to unplug and re-plug the microphone after each step. What’s worse, the app version appears to default to a flat frequency response instead of the excellent default Dirac curve based on actual research. Some features of the receiver aren’t exposed in the app at all, such as speaker “size” and crossover settings. I can’t even figure out how to change receiver inputs, which is pretty basic functionality.

Pioneer PLEASE fix this. Having to set the stupid equalizer everytime you start the receiver up again is stupid!!! Until you fix this….you get 1 star
