Marantz AVR Remote for Positive User Reviews
✓ Don't Understand All The NegativesI've used the app with a AV 7706 preamp for a couple of months & the only issue was resetting the network on the processor after installing a NetGear Orbi mesh router, why it was necessary I'm not sure but it worked. The app has been fault free with quick response to commands & provides a lot of control options for the preamp. The app is really good for changing inputs which I use a lot switching from Xfinity to Roku & BluRay etc. Sorry there's been so many user issues but for me it's been a good app. My only negative is the design is really boring with light text and backgrounds, could really use some color and high contrast graphics..Version: 3.5.0
✓ Really handyThis is a great app and really easy to use. I actually found it easier to use than the actual device remote! This would get 5 stars if it was Apple Watch compatible too.Version: 2.0.1
✓ Found My RemoteIt was on a shelf where my shoes are. Still happy I have this app.Version: 3.1.1
✓ Works fine for me!I own the 6014 and the app has completely rendered my remote control useless. I have the app working flawlessly on my iPhone XS and the iPad Pro. I haven’t experienced a single issue and have been using the app daily for several months..Version: 3.3.2
✓ Reliable, but missing featuresMostly happy with the application. Was happier before I found out that everything else in my room had tie-ins to the Shortcuts app for macros except for this one, and it’s a little too critical a piece of gear to not have them. Looking around, this seems to be common to D+M apps in general, as HEOS is also missing shortcut support. I’m running things through HTTPBot and API calls for now, but that is a paid product and neither the product nor the API collection is easily shared with family members. 5 stars once shortcut support is added..Version: 3.7.1
✓ Well mine worksPaired to a SR6012. App connects 98% of time. When i open app its connected and ready to go. I find app very useful and intuitive. Maybe other reviewers are trying to pair this to older receivers which is why they have so many problems. That being said, there is a new update out and im terrified to update as version 3.2 for me works perfectly. I pray they dont push it. Thanks..Version: 3.3.0
✓ Simple and functionalBeen using this app for over 6 months and it has worked flawlessly. I mainly use it to control volume and switch between inputs. Occasionally to fiddle around with settings as well. Never had a problem achieving what I set out to with it. Not sure why a lot of folks are having issues with it..Version: 3.7.1
✓ Works just fineRead a lot of negative reviews and was a little skeptical at first but having used the app for a good two months now, I have not experienced any major issues at all - not sure if it has something to do with my model - I have a NR1606 running the latest firmware - can turn on and off even after completely shutting down the unit and with WiFi network disrupted on a few occasions due to power outages - the unit initializes normally and continues to operate without any problem - I do find the app quite intuitive, contrary to what many other users report and I am not a paid reviewer, but certainly a Marantz fan !.Version: 3.4.2
✓ Good Easy AppDon’t get caught up in the very old reviews. I nearly got put off from buying my receiver because of these reviews too. The app works great, haven’t had a complaint yet. I use it as a quick easy app to change speaker settings..Version: 3.4.0
✓ Not bad and keeps improvingGranted, this app may not have the best ergonomics, but it’s possibly a limitation of the receivers’ OS as opposed to the app itself (eg: the fact that so-called “smart selects” bundle a sound profile with an input, which I find a little clunky or the splitting of “network” functions to a separate app (HEOS). As far as I’m concerned (NR1609 controlled over wired LAN) it does what it’s supposed to do (eg: allow me to fine tune subwoofer volume) with more than adequate accuracy and responsiveness. I don’t use it all that often but I find that it keeps improving every time I use it - through regular updates - which is pretty rare in OEM world. Keep up the good work Marantz!.Version: 3.3.3
✓ Works wellThe reason most of these manufacture apps get such low ratings is because they try and cram too much control into the app and by doing so none of it works well. I found everything on this app to work pretty well, I like the fact that while you’re making adjustments you can use your volume knob on your phone to turn the volume up and down. The very first thing I would change about this app is removing the power button for the receiver off of every page, I could understand that being a mute button but every page does not need to have a power off button, in fact that should be the one button that should be hard to find..Version: 2.4.0
✓ No issues.I thought I’d try this with my NR1608 and iPhone X. Sure, it may not be pretty (it needs to be?) but it has been functioning absolutely fine for the 3 months I’ve had it. I do use the remote that came with the receiver mostly though...call me old-fashioned!.Version: 3.0.3
✓ Works Great!I use this to control my Marantz SR5014 and it works very well. There’s sometimes when the connection is lost but it’s like two taps to reconnect. This can be a full replacement for the remote if you like just using your phone..Version: 3.5.0
✓ Amazing appThe app works amazing no problem at all Use it all the time it’s nice to have control right from your phone thanks marantz.Version: 3.7.1
✓ Handy App with a Few BugsI use this app all the time to manage zones. I have a universal remote, which only controls the main zone, but I often want to control Zone 2. My universal remote can’t do it, hence this app is extremely helpful..Version: 3.7.1
✓ ? menu crashes app on both iPhone and IPadApp works fine and is a useful way to view and amend settings and source input/output without having to go into the AVR menu. However, the recent update appears to have broken the ? menu as the app crashes when you select AVR Info, Show Tips or Owners Manual. Please fix..Version: 3.3.0
✓ 6011 no longer workingHad an issue where the App could not find my 6011. Power button still operates but everything else was gone. A Reboot of the receiver solved it. App works pretty well for zone 2 operations. It does kind of get zone 1 messed up when you run Bluetooth to zone 2. But other than that it makes a complicated machine much easier to use..Version: 3.0.0
✓ Yay!! It finally works!!!!I have my marantz SR7010 in a open back cabinet with opaque wood front door. So this app enables me to turn the receiver on from sleep mode via Bluetooth. I have the marantz hooked up to LG OLED arc so turning it on for TV audio isn't any issue. But sometimes I just want to listen to music and this app makes it so easy to switch audio input. I can choose every audio input options using my iphone SE or iPad pro. I absolutely love this app!! I put my marantz remote away! It is not buggy at all, but I do use it in a bare minimal way..Version: 2.3.0
✓ Love this appI love this app. It displays vital stats about your source and output, allows you to control nearly every setting, and loads instantly. What’s more, it allows universal control of my Sony Blu-Ray - I assume via HDMI control. That’s very cool, since the IR remote does not offer such a feature (bummer) and Sony does not offer an iOS app for controlling their disc players. Keep it up Marantz!.Version: 3.4.2
✓ Works reasonably, usuallyPros: almost all the functionality I need, including setting volume via a draggable slider. Most settings are available via native UI. Honors input names and input hiding, giving a pretty good experience when switching sources. Has remote simulation for any settings not included. Cons: a few settings are not available in the native interface, e.g. Audio/Volume/Mute Level. For these you have to use the remote simulator to access on screen menus. Still usable. Interface is a little goofy (the hamburger menu does not open a menu or drawer, but slides the content over in a way that confused me), but not awful once you learn it. Biggest problem is that some times the remote just won’t connect to my 7706. Latest firmware, have network control always on, but...nothing. The app can see my 7706 listed, but stalls connecting. Even turning the 7706 “off” (standby) and on, and force quitting the app on the phone doesn’t help. To fix it I usually unplug the 7706, restart the phone (!), and plug it back in..Version: 3.4.2
✓ Very nice app to accompany your AVR!This app makes operating your Marantz more user friendly. Straightforward controls to get the best sound out of your amplifier without looking into the small circular display (unless you have a LED under the cover). Really makes you feel more in command of your home theatre..Version: 3.0.0
✓ Perfect appThis app is perfect and easy to use for my AV7706. I have no idea why it has a low grade, maybe the user's problem. Make sure both AVR and the app have the SSID wi-fi ( same network ). Good luck to all and enjoy..Version: 3.4.4
✓ Highly useful, needs better iPad functionalityThere was a time I would have given this app a two star review, since it regularly lost connection with my Marantz SR6011. That’s gotten much better over the past few months. Things I’d like for it to be even better: I currently use the remote on an IPad with a Magic Keyboard, and would love better keyboard accessibility. Or: the trick that the Apple Remote app performs by mapping the volume buttons on the iPad to the volume settings on Apple TV—it would be great to see similar functionality here..Version: 3.4.5
✓ Like it but two flawsI do like this app on iPad and iPhone - it works great most of the time. However, there are 2 things that need some improvement. (1) I don’t like when I select Blu-ray as a source, the app acts totally different. Rather than showing me the active input and output channels like normal (and like I want), it forces the app to show Blu-ray player controls. What??? I never use this app for Blu-ray controls. Not only is that inconsistent with the behavior throughout every other source, it does not allow me to disable it! Oh, and it doesn’t control my player anyhow. Please stop this behavior in the app. Make it act like the other sources and be consistent. (2) This doesn’t have a night/dark mode! There I am sitting in a black home theater, and I want to launch the app - which then blinds me and distracts others around me. Please give an option to have it switch to dark mode automatically with the phone, and even better, allow the user to enable it manually (if they want to lock it in to the dark mode or light mode no matter what time day)..Version: 3.4.0
✓ Functional if not prettyUsing here with an SR7012 and have found it to be useful and reliable. Not the prettiest app but does what I need it to..Version: 3.8.0
✓ Fantastic ControlFull functionality with iPad Pro 2nd gen. Love the primary control screen that shows input speaker source on left and output with my 7.2 system on right including video source resolution. Easy source switching. Most of the controls are very intuitive and can be mastered in just a few hours. I rarely even pickup my remote other than to power off the unit.Version: 2.2.1
✓ Great app - use it regularlyI’ve had my SR6012 for a long time now and this app is used all the time - use it on my iPhone 8 and 2016/2018 iPads. The latter is cooler graphically but both are easy to use, app has gotten consistently more reliable with each update too. So easy to slide the subs down to -12dB in the evening when the kids are asleep, love how easy it is to change modes etc. Definitely pair this with the Heos app and I also found the MultiEQ app a must have..Version: 3.4.5
✓ GeniusPaired with an NR1506 this app provides a simple way to configure and control my AVR. A "must download". Well done Marantz..Version: 1.1.0
✓ It’s fine, moderate your expectations and you’ll find it useful.There are better apps sure, but in reality, I mainly use the app for power, master volume, and swapping between speaker modes. Works well, connected right away since I set up my WiFi on the receiver first. So long as that’s what you want out of it it functions perfectly..Version: 3.4.0
✓ Marantz App + Airplay = AWESOMEI was able to have a whole house (and outside) audio entertainment that is easily managed through the Marantz App. My current setup: iPad mini - serves as my controller for all entertainment. Marantz receiver 1 - Family room surround Received 2 - outdoor audio and surround Receiver 3 - rest the the house, beds and bath. Speakers - over 25 throughout The app makes it possible to manage each receiver individually or all together. The same settings you get through your receiver can all be done on the app. You can use the app to control from anywhere in the house....I love that....everything is in a server closet and not visible to make it look clean and professional. I’ve had the app for two years now and has been great since. If your a heos or Apple airplay fan, either one works well and is seemless with multiple receivers to be synced together. Thank you Marantz for making it possible as it was a better option for whole home audio for quality and overall $..Version: 3.4.2
✓ Works as it saysIt could a better phone/tablet app. Just buttons and sliders please. But it does what it needs to do. You can operate the on-screen menus with a window that pops up and looks like part of the remote. Menus in the app do not match the SR5013. But I have found all the settings eventually. After you update the firmware, unplug the system to reboot it or the changes do not take effect..Version: 3.0.2
✓ Great remote app and easy to useThere are lots of functions in this app. It practically replaces the physical remote. I only use the real remote for volume control. The app is really great for experimenting settings, because of the user interface. I can’t imagine trying out different audyssy settings without this app. There are occasions when the app freezes that can only be fixed by power cycling the receiver (SR6015). But this has not happened in the last six months. Probably the issue has been fixed by firmware update and app update. It is a good sign that Marantz puts emphasis in their app, because this is the way to keep their receivers relevant in the current market, which is flooded with all-in-one sound bar speakers..Version: 3.6.1
✓ Works!Bought a new NR1608 to replace my old NR1601 after buying a new 4K telly. Although the GUI on the new receiver is much improved, altering settings is way easier with this app. It works great - nice little tool!.Version: 3.0.0
✓ Nice appI mainly use this app to turn on my receiver, adjust volume, change sound modes and different inputs. It works 100% of the time (the old app did too!) but that could be because I have a reliable network formed of Ubiquiti Unify gateway, switch, cloud key and access point. Simply giving my receiver a fixed (or static) IP address on the router (or controller in my case) might fix a lot of complaints about this app..Version: 3.2.0
✓ Overall great App with minor hiccupsI use this App every single day. While I do agree it’s laggy, buggy, and sometimes-have-to-shut-it-down-for-it-to-work-y, Denon/Marantz have made a comprehensive remote to control the most intricate of functions and settings with the least frustration. Accessing Audyssey settings to change Dynamic Range Compression or enhance Dialog is very easy. Using the remote is clunky and interrupts my source to pull up the GUI. This App has completely replaced the remote on my SR7012. Too many negative reviews, especially when compared to competitors control Apps. Get this, learn how to maximize it, enjoy controlling your AVR and an easier life with a component that’s not always the most user friendly..Version: 3.0.2
✓ Minimal but FunctionalNot bad, it let’s me change the volume and some simple settings. It would be nice if there were some extra features like shortcuts support or watch/lock-screen widgets..Version: 3.7.0
✓ Finally!Finally the navigation issues, menu expand/collapse issues are fixed! Please now add support for speakers 2 channel mode adjustment. That is all, SR8102 owner..Version: 3.0.3
✓ Worked a treatDownloaded, opened and it immediately detected my amp automatically. Nothing to do. Great, since my actual remote volume up button is not working..Version: 3.5.0
✓ Great addon to have for my NR1506Already a great value and versatile little amp, this app is the icing on the cake. Great all around package from Marantz..Version: 2.0.1
