IOS vs Android - Naim App

Posted by: Obsydian on 28 January 2018

So on and off been using an iPad Mini, Samsung Tab S2, an S8+ and Note 8 for the Naim app.

The Note 8 - is my main phone now so I have used that as the main Naim app controller.

Over the holidays and weekends I did flip flop from one to the other which is cool, but bias is always to my Note 8 as it's my phone and easy to Multi task and change tracks.

But I still find on Android the Naim app is a pain when changing playlists in Tidal or deadly lock ups if flip flopping to USB and back - meltdown and power cycle.

So I figured let me use my iPad as the sole controller and for sure it is less buggy and a bit quicker, so far a few Tidal random stops mid playlist, but flip flopping source doesn't phase it.

Maybe Naim should ditch remotes and just give us a free iPad mini or spend and equal amount of time on Android.
