So disappointing. Some basic functions work OK but require 2-3 times more effort than needed. The entire UI looks dated and misformatted on either Android or iOS. However, there is consistency as this Sony app is neck and neck with the Denon app I was using for 5+ years. Literally the best receiver and favorite I have owned in past 20 years gets bruised by a frustrating minimum effort to allow marketing it has an "app".

Absolutely useless app. Will not work, ever. Constantly says i need to set up my Sony AV unit. Lol it's already set up. By the way, Sony and Google Home do NOT work together at all. In the app, in order to set up the stereo it's asking me to connect through Google Home. It's impossible, because Sony isn't authorized to Work with Google. There is nothing "Sony" in the Google Home Works With list. Can't stream with the app unless you use Google.

Terrible user experience and setup. Remember when we (consumers) used apps instead of apps using us? I thought Bluetooth was created for ease of use. Sony has managed to take great hardware and convert it into the BetaMax of today that constantly forgets my device and connections. My Flagship Sony car stereo cannot connect to my phone without this miserable app installed. My experience has been horrible and I suggests buyers consider all options before installing and downloading this headache.
