Serato Remote Mini for Negative User Reviews

Coolish app, Needs ImprovementsThe lib section needs a play/stop feature, it would also be nice for the effects section to have an x/y control feature. All in all it's an alright app, would recommend it until it gets some updates tho, especially not for $5.Version: 1.0.1

Still missing essential featuresNeeds play & pause buttons. Also needs volume slider to be useful. Basically useless...Version: 1.3

We need an updateThis launched 4 years ago with very few features. The idea is super cool but there are some basic functions that cannot be done using this app. Praying Serato redoes this bc it could come in handy with the correct capabilities. As of right now not worth the download. Please please please revisit and update!! ~DJ Quelle.Version: 1.3

Remote appNeeds play and pause bottom to make app useful. I can only play 10 sec of a song having to hold a button on my phone running for my mixer..Version: 1.3

It's ok could be betterSo I just got serato Dj and seen it had a remote app so I got it just wish I would have read about it before I paid for it the only thing I do not like is you have to hold down the button for it to play they need to make a play button for it then I will give 5 stars.Version: 1.0.1

Play button and next track button?Purchased this app but was disappointed that I couldn’t switch tracks or press play on the iPhone version of the app..Version: 1.3

CrapDoesn't work; like all other Serato products.Version: 1.0.1

No PLAY/PAUSE work aroundPretty upset by the inclusion of so many useless features and the lack of the necessities. not needed: fx tab, duplicated 1st cue on Lib and Pad tabs missing: play/pause, track names they could have at least made the Lib 1st cue a latch for play/pause from 1st cue. i’m working a wedding where i want the music to start in reception as we’re leaving the ceremony room. my work around is to set up a 1 bar loop before the first track and hot play. so it is looping silence during the whole ceremony. then when we start to leave the ceremony i use this app to turn the loop off which lets the playlist continue in Autoplay mode. this is worth $5 to me. i doubt it’s work the embarrassment and damage to reputation it’s done to Serato to have released it unfinished and not put the warning in the description but have so many users have to do it. i would not have ever thought that a DJ remote didn’t have Play/Pause. i feel foolish. Serato made me feel foolish. it’s not good business to make your clients feel foolish for trusting you..Version: 1.3

Does not work with scratch live!!Still doesn't work with scratch live??.Version: 1.0.1

NO START AND STOP!!!!!!I bought this for one reason. So I can remotely play tracks if I'm get stuck away from my desk. The need for a stop/start button is crucial. Why would you not put one in? Like, it couldn't be that hard..Version: 1.0.1

Don’t work for pc.This thing don’t work for PC, not sure about mac. Gonna be requesting my money back, i don’t have the patience to be writing emails..Version: 1.3

Serato RemoteDon’t buy this. Trust me 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻.Version: 1.3

Rubbish rubbish rubbishRubbish and pointless.Version: 1.0.1

Needs a Play button!As a supplement to the board, it's ok, but the app doesn't add any extra functionality that isn't already far easier to access & use on my Pioneer DDJ-SX board (with no risk of wireless latency). If you have a bare-bones board, the app might be useful. What I NEED is a Play button. I DJ a lot of weddings, awards dinners, and other events. A Play button would enable me to start music at times when I have to be away from my board (such as during the Toasts when I'm running around with the mic.) Why they chose to put a Queue button instead of a Play button is a mystery; Queueing a song is completely worthless if you can't also hit Play! This single addition would change my rating to a 5 star..Version: 1.0.1

What the hell Serato.The title of the app says"Remote" so where is the stop/start button?. Holding down that queue button don't do Jack for me. I'm not trying to mix with this,, just want to start a queued up song away from the rig. Get on this please..Version: 1.3

It says it’s not working for my version...the latest version of serato DJ pro 👍🏾 Send me my money back. Thank you..Version: 1.3

DisappointedI could be completely missing something so correct me if I'm wrong, but why can't you start and stop music....it's a function on the iPad, why not iPhone. Really disappointed that 'play and pause' function is missing and the app isn't universal. Felling really ripped off!.Version: 1.0.1

Completely uselessIt does absolutely nothing as a remote. Doesn't play/pause. Doesn't cue. Doesn't let's u see what song is playing. Doesn't let u select a song. Doesn't let u control the volume. It does nothing that u would want to do with a remote. Serato, get ur act together..Version: 1.0.1

Doesn’t even workWon’t even connect to Serato avoid it does not work.Version: 1.3

Waste of timeGarbage was wanting it so I could play music when away from the DJ booth really is a waste of an app.Version: 1.3

Dissappointing!!There are some fake reviews saying the issues have been resolved. oct 2016 - still cannot stop playing of a track or start playing. All you can do is drag the song to the deck. The biggest disadvantage I am song is, it doesn't show the track name. Then how do you choose which one to play? If you are standing next to the laptop or controller why should I use a remote? The only practical purpose I have seen is, if you are alone and have to go to rest room, you can watch the last track is running and drag the next one or auto play didn't stop etc. Please please add the track name and show the cue names. This need to be a two way remote. Please refund if you can. Thanks!.Version: 1.0.1

Channel 2 not working!!App is ok but only for channel 1 when selecting channel 2 no sounds happen for example selecting Fx like flanger or echo no sound is activated even when "on" is selected only channel 1 on the app works for the app which is disappointing for this app , only 2 star is rated but I hope this glitch or error can be updated. I'm using an iPhone 6plus on serato scratch live version2.5.0.Version: 1.0.1

Serato remoteNeeds a refund on this.Version: 1.3

Not worth it.I mean to me $7 isn’t a big deal, but i would’ve rather pay $1.99 for this. Very limited options, and it all relies on your hardware anyway. I was expecting to be able to use this from a distance so I don’t need to be beside my setup the whole time but that’s not the case. To load songs, you need to use your computer screen view so you can see what you’re actually selecting. The app layout looks nice, but that’s really all I can give it..Version: 1.3

Not worth for what you paidSerato should add a master volume for both decks and a play pause button..Version: 1.3

You can’t press play?!.....REALLY?!?This needs to be made very apparent in the description - paying for a remote and then not being able to press play on a DJ app is laughable. No good at at party if you can’t start the music. Assuming the remote is there if you’re not in arms reach of your laptop, otherwise what’s the point!.Version: 1.3

Needs workDoesn't work could you guys sort this out - doesn't link with serato Scratch Live keeps saying not detected. Thanks for now I'll give 2* - if this changes I shall edit my rating 👍👍.Version: 1.0.1

No use to meBought this under the impression I could "add cue points and set up loops" on the go, but it seems it has to be connected to laptop AND ssl hardware to do anything. Please serato add feature to prepare mp3s just on your smartphone/device and this would be great for preparing tunes whilst travelling..Version: 1.0.1

Love the IPhone App but…....Really disappointed I don’t get access to the iPad version. I paid good money for the app thinking I would be able to use app on iPhone and iPad.Version: 1.3

Wasted MoneySame complaint as everyone else’s. Why no start/stop? Out of all the complaints about the lack of this feature I would like to at least see a response from Serato as to why. Please send my money back.Version: 1.3

Update needed!If you have a loop going and I try to access other functions the app will drop the loop. Also effects not responding to channel assigned. App almost useless at the moment..Version: 1.0.1

Where’s the play??I want this app so i can leave the decks and deal with stuff off to the side. Where’s the play/pause button??? Hardly a decent remote without one, good app but just missing a very vital feature.Version: 1.3

UPDATE THIS PLEASENeeds start/stop button - the one thing I purchased it for..Version: 1.3

Doesn’t work..don’t have much to say. Just doesn’t work.Version: 1.3

RubbishThought I could actually see library on the phone. Can't. Also works while connected by USB but as soon as I disconnect fails to connect on wifi. Pretty basic and poor "remote". Hoped to have basic control away from decks but not good for that..Version: 1.0.1

PointlessI was excited to be able to start and stop my DJ station from outside the venue. This app does not accomplish this or anything else. You can’t view your library or crates or anything. I see zero value.Version: 1.3

Zero Usability WiFiThought I could search tracks, load at distance, play-stop, do my animations at gig without being stuck behind the controller. NONE of those options exist, I want a refund !!!.Version: 1.3

SeratoA simple play and pause button for each channel would be nice for when your away from the decks and need to cue in the next track, this app has so much potential but a complete waste of £4.99 😡🤬.Version: 1.3

Very disappointedI wish I could get my money back and I just might look in to it. I thought the whole point of this app was to be portable, maybe avoid dragging my full Ns6 Dj mixer and stand to a friends house and just bring my laptop and a small speaker and have a portable mixer. So I ask what's the point of switching to use my iPhone or iPad while I have a Full mixer with track wheel and touch pads at my fingertips??? This is a useless gadget, very disappointed...Version: 1.0.1

WowCmon after spending my hard earned money!!! Why u cant see what you’re playing easy fix! Play button please! Really no pause how is this Remote? And we are very limited sooooo can i have my money back? Or improve it.Version: 1.3

Great start, but no play button?The layout and functionality of the mini remote are great but for the life of me I CANNOT figure out why they'd choose a CUE button over a PLAY button? Effects and hot cues are really fun to play with, but they're kind of useless if the track isn't PLAYING. I know this isn't supposed to replace a full on controller and no professional DJ would ever want it to, but having a PLAY button would make this amazingly useful companion for any DJ that actually does this for a living, like myself. Think long bathroom/bar breaks. How wonderful would it be no that you have the freedom to roam more than three minutes without the music stopping. Serato, PLEASE add a play button to the mini remote. We would all be grateful..Version: 1.0.1

Smh!!!I spent $4.99 for this?? Smh!! Why is there no play and pause button?? That makes 0 sense.. Also what good is it to be able to go up and down in the crates if you can’t seen what your doing when your away from the rig.. I really wish I would of seen the comments before I spent the money on it.. I would be a lot happier if it just had them two features over all the effects and loops and all that. All is app needs is the Q points a start and stop/pause button and to see your tracks and crates. But it’s been over like 3 years so I don’t see you all doing anything about it.. smh..Version: 1.3

Serato remoteThis is a complete rip-off! Do yourself a favor and totally ignore this . I got it goin ( no instructions ) finally. And was excited to see that it operates some functions on my serato . BUT the single most basic function : PLAY / PAUSE isn't there!!!!! They have other super stupid stuff ya probably would never use and ignored the only thing you need! How can you use this if you can't play a track ?? You can also browse your collection... Great... BUT you can't see it! It doesn't show on the screen. Who cares about the effects and other stuff if you can't use it? I called support and they confirmed this !! They said they may fix it in a future update... ?? Total waste of my hard earned money. I don't know bout the I pad, but the phone app should not be sold until it is a usuable product. They have just stolen from me. Tell a friend.... Thank you..Version: 1.0.1

NEEDS IMPROVEMENTI’m highly dissatisfied and would appreciate a refund for this useless app.Version: 1.3

Add a play/pause button please...Serato: I realize you aren’t putting much money into developing this app, so I will ignore all the other small things… but as many have already been requesting, PLEASE add a play/pause feature for this app..Version: 1.0.1

Sera to remote miniThis is crap and is Serato made this app shame on them. Do not buy it’s a waste of money no way to play remotely there’s no start and stop.Version: 1.3

I want my $5 back.No matter what I do this will not work with scratch live and any version of windows (7,8.1, and even 10). It hasn't even been updated since 2013. There is no reason that this issue hasn't been fixed in the last year and a half. Not cool serato..Version: 1.0.1

WowI'm with all the other people on here. Whichever developer thought that the cue button was important enough to take up the entire bottom of the screen needs to get fired. And how does a library scroller help anyone?? If I can't see the names of the songs the two buttons are completely useless. When you figure those two things out, you'll deserve 5 stars..Version: 1.0.1
