Hi everyone, after almost 4 months, more or less, I’d recommend you guys get YAMD.app if you’re on iOS; by far on of the best apps for managing your poly. It’s free! I’ve been using Glider as well. But I always end up back in YAMD
Why do you prefer it to Glider?

I've been having a real problem with Roon playback on the Poly this week. I noticed that Roon recently updated to 1.8 (Build 831). Anyone else having recent problems out there as well?

I'd already tried restarting the core. Just tried restarting the router. Poly starts to play, but then skips songs (non-streaming local files) and finally poops out altogether. Usually the Poly works well with Roon, just not this week.

Thanks for letting me know it's working for you. Rules out a problem with the update.

Why do you prefer it to Glider?
Details. On Glider, you can play full albums but you cannot modify the album queue order or add other songs to the queue (Glider has no Queue other than the specified by the album/playlist) The UI on Glider is a bit clunky with slow loads sometimes. Something that really grinds my gears while using glider is that if for some reason I want to use another app, my phone's volume automatically maxes out through the speakers and if you lower the volume, the volume will be lowered on the mojo/poly as well, that doesn't happen with YAMD. If you close YAMD you can even keep the queue after turning off and on your mojo/poly (unless you change network).

I think that @NYanakiev was one of the beta testers of the software, so maybe he can suggest something.
Yes, indeed. I no longer have a Poly, however. On 2Go Roon playback is now foolproof after the latest update.
I wish I could do more to assist.

I found a decent alternative to the chord poly for now. I am using my hiby r3 saber as a mini stack connected directly to my chord mojo.

Nice and easy to use ldac Bluetooth from my smart phone. I can easily stream Spotify now as well as all my other streaming / listening methods.

And it all stacks really neatly.

Just realized you can use the GoFigure App on a Mac with the M1 chip.
Very cool idea, though there's something not quite right about using such an unpolished and "un-delightful" app on such refined and delightful hardware :)

I was hoping the auto create playlist functionality would have been available before now, pita to do them manually, was thinking of writing a little app to do it …

Glad to see Poly still being updated.

Hoping the "Preparation for further incoming updates - ensuring future proofing." Is to enable more features like Spotify Connect and not just for making it compatible with Mojo 2.
