Please Read STR-DA5600ES

Connection problem with STR-DA5600ES. I have 2 iPhones. 1 is on ios 4.2.1. I never have a connect issue on this phone. The other on ios 5.0.1. and this one will rarely pick up the amp. It seems to be an issue with the app not being compatible with the new iOS. Please listen to the consumers and update the compatibility issue. We buy Sony because of its versatility and quality. Don't let a free app taint our opinions of why we buy Sony products.

Bought this app. I have tried for 3 days to connect the STR_DA3600ES, it has failed to detect it. Its just the demo that is running. Anyone with a suggestion out there or do I wait for an update?...have discovered that unless the STR DA3600EE is a US version, the app wont work (I have a UK version of STR DA3600ES, so the app doesnt work)

OK when it actually connects

The app works ok when it actually connects, but it doesn't do so consistently. I have a 4600ES and it connects sometimes. This app is really slow and there is pretty much no customizing the horrible interface. And don't bother trying to contact customer support because they won't answer any questions about it and will just waste an hour of your time. The app would be great if they would read these reviews and update it since its been so long since it was released.

Could You please update Your apps so they will work with ALL Sony AV NETWORK receivers- US and Eu?That really can´t be so difficult for You, You already have those apps so please add other/ older models as well, please!!I can´t understand why models like the 6400es or 5500es are not supported, what´s the problem, they were really very expensive, and now no support??By the way I 100% won´t buy a new Sony AV receiver just to use this or similar app. There are many other receivers out there with much better support...
