Ratings and Reviews
Disappointing UX
After reading so much about Roon, I’ve decided to give it a shot. While the server installation was a breeze, I am totally disappointed by the Remote app.
I can’t really understand how something so popular can look so outdated, like it’s been stuck in 2012 or something. The design language is inconsistent, functionality is all over the place and quite convoluted. The hamburger menu is still a thing - even if all modern iOS apps use a left side swipe as a “back” gesture, Roon Remote insists on opening the menu.
While I like Roon’s functionality overall, I don’t think it brings enough over the default bluOS experience to warrant adoption.
Inconsistent performance
For the money paid, it’s not acceptable that the app crashes constantly both on iPhone 11 Pro / iPad Pro - with all the updates installed.
Also with Wifi performance is inconsistent; In the beginning it’s stuttering but after first seconds, plays without any issues.
I think Roon should do a better job if it wants to keep its customer base.
Freezing and crashes
Dissapointment
