Denon AVR Remote for Positive User Reviews
✓ Excellent - Haven’t needed remote sinceRead a lot of the reviews before downloading as I always do. So I was expecting trouble everywhere but have been pleasantly surprised! Connectivity was simple and hasn’t dropped out since, app does everything I’ve needed to do, and no app freezes or shutdowns... The best thing is not having to search for the remote. I always have my iPhone handy so I wish there was an app for my other remotes..Version: 2.3.0
✓ A-OkayI was not having any problem with the app until today when it seemed to go haywire. I reset my phone re-download the app and did everything else I could think of but it just wasn’t working. Then I read the release note for the update of the app which apparently happened just within the last couple of days. It noted that it may require that you unplug the AVR and plug it back in if the app wasn’t working properly. Voila! That did the trick and now it’s working fine once again - which for me is essential since the physical remote for my AVR-x3200w isn’t working properly and of course you’re dead in the water without a remote. This app saved me from having to shell out big $ for a whole new AVR. Yeah!.Version: 3.6.1
✓ Demon app works greatWorks well for minor tweaks and getting whatever source you’re using sounding it’s best. Much quicker real time setting changes on the fly vs. using the receiver to make changes. Not perfect though, lost the ability to adjust sub 1 & 2 independent from each other a while back but recent update seems to have fixed the issue. Overall a good way to see what your system is doing and adjust accordingly to suit your taste.Version: 3.7.0
✓ Works ExcellentI have used various remote apps for other makes of amps and receivers. This Denon is without doubt the very best we have ever used. We use it on our iPhone 12, our Denon AVR-X6500H is an excellent receiver. It’s a 11.2 and we run two subs off it and 4 Dolby Atmos speakers. It’s amazing how sound has improved in my 62 years. Buying my first hi-fi in 1973. We now have $45 invested into our home video/sound/PC system. A great 85” 4K UHD TV and the sound system to match. Throw in a HTPC and every app to run it. Life is wonderful atm..Version: 3.6.0
✓ Decent app (recent update kinda stunk though)This app is pretty good. It provides all of the UI controls that you get with the remote control in an easy-to-use format, works really well on my ipad. I tend to change receiver settings for different inputs, ie lower the bass for PS4, different settings for music, streaming shows/movies, etc. It makes it easier to manage all the settings with the mobile app rather than with the remote, more quickly for me at least..Version: 2.3.0
✓ App works great.I don’t understand all the negative reviews, I must be missing something. This app works just like the Marantz one and they both perform well. Might be people are expecting things the app wasn’t designed to do. It has all the controls you need and from my experience it has never failed just like the Marantz version. I love it..Version: 3.4.2
✓ It’s a Virtual Remote for your PhoneI’m hopping on to review since I use this app a handful of times throughout the week on other peoples network/Denon AVRs and it definitely beats using the remote. I get it, it doesn’t give you all the bells and whistles and the UI is pretty old like, but it’s great to have on hand when you need to see what your receiver is actually doing in real time. I also tend to use the local IP address and remote into Denon via laptop, so maybe I’m used to seeing a more “basic” UI. The App for me is a useful tool that - if you know what to look for - you can control your receiver from the couch. In my opinion, if you have a receiver & have the knowledge to understand all those settings, navigating the app should be doable as well. In Summary: doesn’t look the best, but it’s a great app to have on your phone if you have a Denon, because it definitely doesn’t hurt to have more control..Version: 3.6.1
✓ If you want to setup different listening positions, this is for you.This app lets you setup the eq for different listening positions. For instance, I have my eq setup for sitting in the center of the couch, the right side of the couch, and the left side of the couch. It is true you can setup your eq on the receiver, but it will only setup the receiver to set the eq for one listening position. For those, people who like to sit in different areas of the room, you can set the specific eq you saved for that listening position, since the app lets you save multiple eq positions..Version: 2.2.1
✓ Well featured. Easy to use.A nice companion to an already feature rich amplifier. Great way to fiddle without interrupting what's happening on the TV..Version: 2.0.0
✓ Light years beyond Denon's remoteOthers have groused about connectivity which I believe has everything to do with the robustness of their home networks, especially the WiFi kind. My hardwired Denon AVR responds quickly to this app, displaying all of the AVR's settings at a glance and enabling instant tweaks — a huge improvement over repeatedly punching the Setup, Back and arrow buttons on the AVR's supplied remote while overcoming its need for line of sight transmission. Controlling or shutting down the system from elsewhere in my home? Brilliant!.Version: 2.2.0
✓ Mind Your Expectations - this has improved over the yearsFirstly, I’ve been using this app since purchasing an AVR-X2200. Back then it was buggy and unreliable. Overtime I’ve used the iPhone and iPad offerings with general success when the remote was out of reach. Last year I bought an AVR-X3600H and the control experience through the app is a step up and overall it is a satisfying experience in regards to general helpfulness to supplement my Harmony remotes. Being able to switch between the two amps is great but the contrast is that the speakers don’t illuminate on the 2200 vs 3600 on the app. But they used to 😶.Version: 3.5.0
✓ Full control over the receiver!I’m able to power on and off the receiver, change input (with 4 quick selects at the bottom), change volume, change speaker levels, link to the heos app, and set the sound mode all perfectly. I give it a 4.5 stars as I wish heos and denon was one app and had the ability to open a keyboard when having to type in settings for the receiver..Version: 3.4.1
✓ App not loading my AVR-650H receiver - fixI purchased my Denon AVR-S650H a month ago and installed this app to control multiple settings. I love the receiver and the app worked great until an iOS update on my phone the week of Jan 4, 2021. When I opened the app and selected my receiver name, I had this loading or spinning graphic but the app never opened the control screen. I tried removing the app and re-installing but that didn’t help. I have my receiver hard wired not wireless. Here is the fix...unplug your receiver from the power source and wait 15 seconds then plug it back in. Wait another minute or 2 for the receiver to reboot. Finally, open your app and it should work. It worked for me!.Version: 3.4.2
✓ Does A Good JobBefore writing this review I had to double check I was writing about the same app all the bad reviews were referring to. Having always had Yamaha, this is my first Denon, and this app works great. I especially like how it shows me what video and audio inputs are occurring in real time and how they are being output. This has helped me easily troubleshoot setup issues. Quite a functional app..Version: 3.4.0
✓ Works great!I wanted this app to work, was discouraged by the ratings, and am very impressed by how good it is. As long as your phone or tablet are on SAME network as the receiver it all goes smoothly. I had then on different ones at first and it took awhile to figure it out. Once Firmware is updated (there was one in Dec17) app immediately worked and supported most functions of the physical remote. Even better, I don’t need to have the remote out anymore cluttering up the room or getting misplaced. This app works great for me, highly recommend it..Version: 2.3.0
✓ Works greatJust got it today, didn’t know it existed, all the functions work great UPDATE: stopped working. Does not detect it anymore, sucks, I liked it. Worked for a week.Version: 3.3.3
✓ Love this app!!!I was looking for the simple feature of being able to control zone 2 without being in line of site of the amp. The app meets my needs!!! I can easily turn on my amp and listen to my speakers upstairs without running downstairs. I can adjust volume on zone 2 and select my source such as Apple Music via airplay or cable TV. At night I can listen to music and turn off my amp without running downstairs. I was looking at RF remotes at over $100 to accomplish this. This app is so easy to use and works perfectly. I almost didn’t download after reading reviews. I ensure that my phone is on low volume so I do not have turn on a zone and have it blast. I can also set a maximum volume on the amp to protect in the event phone volume is highest and I turn on a zone..Version: 3.4.1
✓ Works well, no need for physical remotePerhaps this app did not work well in the past but it's current iteration has been pretty flawless for me. I'm using it to control both my X3400 and X4400 and it's pretty responsive. I'm also able to group them together and use it with the HEOS Music app to access all my FLAC files via a USB thumb drive on my x3400. Overall I can quickly access my settings directly without using the on screen menus which is a huge plus bc it's just faster via the app. I know in the past the app would not recognize one or both receivers for whatever reason but I think they have worked that out and I can see both on my netowkr and switch between both fiarly quickly. The interface could be a little more modern and less drab looking but it is functional. That's really my only issue. It's not a pretty interface. But functionality is as intended so I won't take away a star for just looks..Version: 3.5.0
✓ Fantastic AppThis app works perfectly without any errors, and I don't understand why there are so many negative reviews. I've been using it for a while now, and I have to say that it's one of the best apps I've come across. The interface is user-friendly, and the features are well-organized, making it easy to navigate through. The app runs smoothly, and I haven't experienced any crashes or glitches. I highly recommend this app to anyone looking for a reliable and efficient tool. Don't let the negative reviews discourage you from giving it a try!.Version: 3.8.0
✓ Does what I need it to do.Lazy people are going to complain. It works for what I need it for. I have the remote if I need to get technical. Most of the reviews here are kinda crazy. If you have your phone then the remote should be close. You’re asking for a free app to have it all? Again, lazy people. Do what us older generation does. Get off the couch, drop your phone and do it manually. It’ll only take 3-4 mins people..Version: 3.5.0
✓ Nothing to complain aboutApart from a little refinement appearance and functionality wise, there is nothing to complain about with this app, there is some slight latency between changing say, sound mode via the app and the AVR, other than that, all good..Version: 3.7.0
✓ Wow! Denon users are a bunch of whinersI’m not finding anything wrong with the App on iOS 15.1 …despite what the majority of reviewers are saying about it. Works as advertised and allows for control of my X4700H without me having to get up, walk to the unit, slide the door open (blocking half my Bravia’s screen in the process) and press menu buttons …what’s not to like? If you see the app as an extension to the Web Interface and not as a stand-alone settings apps, it does all that can be expected of it. As for the miserable, moaning Elitists among you - get a life …along with a more powerful router, and stop blaming your poor home network performance on the app. Just to add after nearly a year of use; The app could do with Haptic feedback when selections are made, just to register the selection in the mind..Version: 3.7.0
✓ I like itJust got a Denon AVR, so downloaded this app to iphone and iPad. Works great on both. More information at once on iPad due to bigger screen. Much easier to use to adjust settings using this app than using the remote that came with amp..Version: 3.0.2
✓ FixIt stopped recognizing my receiver once but works great when I works. I found a fix on the Denon site. I rebooted my router and turned off auto updates on my receiver and then unplugged the receiver for a few seconds. That fixed the problem..Version: 3.4.4
✓ Works perfectly on X3700HYes, the name is old and interface blocky. I just swapped an older Pioneer Elite for new x3700H. Did not expect much after reading reviews here. I use wired Ethernet, static IP, google DNS, iPadOS and iPhone 11 Pro Max. I can say that the app works perfectly. Have access to everything the OSD has. Can set up presets etc. Yes, it takes maybe 4-7sec to load but after that is quick enough. Interface is old but it just works when you figure out how to use it. The app for Pioneer is ALSO old and hasn’t changed name in years and does not work as well as this. Call me pleasantly surprised..Version: 3.4.1
✓ Love it!Just need to update from time to time..Version: 3.7.1
✓ GoodBought my AVR 2600 before reading some of the reviews and was quite disappointed. So far however I have not found anything that doesn’t work although I have a way to go yet. All of the main features work well for me. Streaming from my iPhone is fine although the artwork isn’t there. Needs more investigation. Listening to bluegrass at the moment from the USA. Will check out the 4K TV tonight although that is separate from this app..Version: 3.3.2
✓ Really good AppWorks well with the AVR-X3500H. Allows you to configure the receiver from your iPad. Renaming inputs is easy as you don’t have to use the remote control and enter text using the scroll buttons..Version: 3.0.2
✓ Relatively happyI am using this with an AVR-X3500. Extra real estate with an iPad improves the GUI. I notice there are complaints about the network playback capability - I can’t comment as I use Airplay from my Apple devices..Version: 3.1.1
✓ Rough around the edgesThis has been designed around function rather than user experience and it shows. App works great however it’s not clear what you’re meant to do with the results. Some people complaining it made no difference and that’s because you have to send the results back to the AMP, it’s not immediately obvious but there’s a share button when you click it you can upload the settings to the AMP..Version: 3.4.5
✓ EfficaceTrès bonne app fait tout ce que je veux avec mon avr denon..Version: 3.7.1
✓ So much faster configsApp is great and works very smooth. It saves you time to make your configurations so much faster and even withput obstructing the content you are watching. Also great way to monitor which speakers you have are working for the content. In the current version I am using, it works stable and compatible with the AVR im using (X1600H).Version: 3.6.1
✓ FixedI was having problems connecting to my 8500H, thought I would have to wait until a new version came out. However, I followed the instructions, restarted my iPad and turned the receiver off at the wall. Works perfectly now on my iPad and iPhone 12..Version: 3.4.2
✓ Last update is awesome 👏I Love this app!!!! It should now get better rated! Thank you for the last update it fixed whatever was hanging up the app. I use my phone to access. Before the last update the app would lock up and not function properly, but when it worked, it worked perfectly. Now with the last update, it works great thank you 😊.Version: 3.5.0
✓ Seems to work fineHave been using the app since getting a AVR-X2400H and then added a DRA-800H. It does what it needs to do, which mostly is to check the sound mode and other audio settings without popping up the info on the TV (since I can’t read the amp’s LED display from where I sit). That saves annoying others. I don’t understand all the one star reviews. Maybe it could be slicker but it does the stuff it needs to do. It is easier to navigate from an iPad, but most will be using a phone..Version: 3.7.1
✓ Latest updateGlad I haven’t updated yet because if it doesn’t connect to the AVR, what’s the point? I’ll keep checking the reviews until I see it’s been fixed. If the version you have is still working, don’t update it until you are certain, based on the most current reviews, that it will continue to work..Version: 3.4.2
✓ Works great for meBizarre how many rate this low as it works great on our two Denon AVRs Fast, never crashes, web control allows access to all functions. Nice layout..Version: 3.7.1
✓ I like it - one request...Please please add second subwoofer adjustment! The iPad version is great because it lets you adjust channel levels in the app without having the screen overlay to annoy people watching tv....but it only has the ability to adjust one subwoofer even if you have 2 connected and showing in all the other menus.And since subs are the thing you are adjusting most often...Otherwise good app. Not sure what other’s connection issues are about but mine always connects immediately..Version: 3.5.0
✓ It’s not that badWhile it’s not “intuitive” that some might desire, it does what is intended and is easier than using e remote. I think there’s a lot of features and customization that just don’t allow a quick setup. Setting up an a/v with all of the features and functionality it todays electronic world is not easy. There’s not just home theater sounds and simple music playback, but multi-room configurations, setting up for gaming and other inputs. I love the fact that I can tweak and make adjustments on the fly with this app. My wife doesn’t like the bass rattling her art off the walls watching movies. SoI can have the app open and reduce the sub a few decibels to her liking for this input only. I can have music playing in multiple rooms and quickly make volume adjustments as needed. The bottom line is, every a/v system I’ve owned takes both time and patience to learn and perfect the settings. Patience Grasshopper!.Version: 3.4.1
✓ Getting much better......After leaving 1 star for a constantly crashing app, some development has been done and now all looks good!!.Version: 3.3.1
✓ Lost Zone 2 with update - difficult to findEDITED Love the idea of this app. When it works it's great - why is this so difficult? The web site hosted by the device is stable - doesn't this app simply use it? Had Zone 2 control and then the update now no longer can see Zone 2 on my 720w - found where you can hide it in settings. Maybe it would be better to hide it if it's not configured or say something about this configuration setting..Version: 2.2.0
✓ Convenient way to control Zone 2This app works great for controlling my system while listening to music in my zone 2 room. You can also access almost all of the system settings from the app which I find more convenient than the system remote since that isn’t backlit. HEOS native integration would be nice instead of a separate app but not a big deal. Love that I can control my Blu-ray player that’s connected to my AVR using the app. This is a plus since it’s in a console behind IR unfriendly doors so it’s own remote won’t work with it there..Version: 3.4.5
✓ Easy, with lots of functionalityI'm using this with my AVR-S920W and it's been very easy and intuitive from the moment I opened it. After installing, it started right up with my receiver's current state (volume, current audio selection, custom-named inputs, etc). You can get to most (maybe all?) of the physical remote's functions and more: to my surprise, I can control my Panasonic Blu-ray from it - with no setup!.Version: 2.2.0
✓ Works as Expected.When I first purchased our Denon receiver I discovered there was an app to remotely control it. At the time it worked but periodically wouldn’t connect to the receiver - I’d have to reboot the receiver and it would work for a while and then stop. After giving up on the app on a whim a few months ago I tried it and was surprised to see it working. It’s been rock solid - any time I want to use it it’s working. Not sure if it was firmware updates on the receiver or the app being updated but now it works reliably and I can make the adjustments I want without grabbing a regular remote..Version: 3.4.1
✓ Denon AVRLove this app. I see some bad reviews here, but those are mostly older it looks like. They seem to have worked all the bugs out now. I have 2 Denon Receivers, and a 4 Zone HEOS drive, and a couple I’ve Denon Home 150’s. I have 5.1 in my family room, 9.2 in my theater, speakers in my office, garage, master bath, master Bedroom, and patio, and it all works flawlessly together..Version: 3.8.1
✓ Thanks Denon Team!This app is easy to use. Needs a few of improvements but it is well made and also replace most of the functions from the controller. I really appreciate from Denon this app and hope they really improve it more and more. It needs a little more Denon touch!.Version: 3.3.3
✓ DRA-800HThe remote for my 800H receiver suddenly quit working and I found this app. My receiver is a simple 2 channel stereo so i can’t say if this app controls all of the surround options found in other receivers. But as far as what I have, this app has every button that the original remote has and other than an occasional lag when pressing buttons it works flawlessly..Version: 3.5.0
