Pros and cons of Sony | Music Center app for iPhone and iPad

Sony | Music Center app good for

I have the HTNT5 sound bar and this works just like it should. I have had no issues with connection or lag. The app is pretty straight forward and easy to use with my sound bar. It allows me to switch between inputs with ease and even allows me to play music from my phone over wifi while giving a display with the song information on the tv.
I love being able to control my stereo from my phone. Way to go Sony.
Paired with a Sony SRS-X7 it is a pleasure to work with. One of its many features relies on the settings of the Equalizer Audio Service. You can adjust the output sound to your ear preferences. A great feature would be the ability to add the building of favorite lists such as another Sony Audio app does. It would then be complete. Keep the fine work.
The app works great, only have a few suggestions that would make the app better. 1. A direct link or contact within the app to send suggestions. I cant find one so am using review section here. 2. Ability to move/delete/reorder tiles. I dont use USB or Deezer give the user option to delete or hide tiles. Keep up the good work.
I bought a new sony deck (car stereo) to replace another aging sony aftermarket unit. I was first thinking of getting a double DIN but decided against it thinking that my existing CDXGT400 would be a direct plug and play fit for the Sony harness/pigtail (I could interchange my CDXM8800, CDXGT400 and CDX630UI without changing the harness so I was expecting to be able to do so with the MEXN4100BT). Nope ! Sony made the female plug 25% smaller. It looked exactly the same but was reduced in size. I was now stuck with a single-line LCD and was having a bit of difficulting adjusting to the interface. I was just about ready to pack everything and return the unit until I paired my iphone ! Songpal Bluetooth and WiFi Audio Control was downloaded and I was so pleasantly surprised with the interfeace it provided. Everything was clear, displayed pictures, song titles, adjustment of all the decks setting including illumination, eq, sound position. I went from having a good unit with a horrible interface to an good unit with an excellent app control. This app is pure genius ! It is simple but it gives you full control of all the nuances of your deck with a much more user and touch friendly design. If youve used an app on any smart phone - this is as good as it gets in terms of 3rd party control. So far so good. I will try and update my review if I encounter any issues.
Works great but it would be awesome to have the option of upgrading the sound system version.

Some bad moments

Sony have dropped support for my new 1050 without providing any option for retaining version 5.1. Please understand that we have apps set to auto update so we don't get a chance. Very poor show that a brand new amp has no support.
I only bought the SRS:X2 to use on songpal but it is not supported. Is Sony fixing it?
На iPhone 5s не соединяется, Sony shake-66d)) iOS 9.3.1
This could be a real quality app, but its not. The information collecting & privacy policy is more important to Sony & affiliates than the quality of the app itself. CONS: Cant turn on the player from my phone, but can turn it off. What? App directs you to iTunes to start play of music, so have to come back to songpal to set preferences. Every time you leave & come back to the app, it refreshes & reloads the app, every time. Did I mention every time? Interface is very clumsy. Difficult to pair with Bluetooth. Especially, when turning the player off with the app. PROS: none... ...well, it is deletable.
It forces me to have to give it a star to post this. I love the Stereo, but this app just ************! This app blows, every time you walk away from your car/head unit you have to authorize it again and again and again and again, oh did I mention and Again! In the head unit when playing an MP3 it only says music. Once in a while I can get it to show a song title. It so annoying to have to authorize it every time. Plz fix this dang app. It has such potential, but in the state that its in its just annoying to have to use it. I want to recommend the Stereo to my friends, but refuse to because theyll have to use this App and Ill never hear the end of it.
After the update, cannot even get it to work, it pairs to the bluetooth, but wont work in the app zero stars
