Crowd Design for iFi App!
Aug 7, 2023 at 10:31 PM Post #77 of 120
Just to understand, is this app only for future product releases, or will this be applicable to current/existing products such as the Zen Stream as a firmware upgrade?

Hope it is the latter.

And sending in my wish list:

1. App over streaming services such that when you search, it searches over every streaming service that you have subscription to. Example: Search "Work Song" and IF you have subscription to Tidal, Spotify and Qobuz, it will show all "Work Song" tracks from all three streaming services. Best if it could also bring up the same song from your attached storage for a universal search.

2. Link between streaming service playlist and ifi app playlist. So you could manage your Tidal playlist natively (while on mobile away from your main system) and still play Tidal Connect to OTHER non IFI streamer, and when you go back to IFI, the app recognizes your updated Tidal playlist.

3. Ability to shuffle songs BETWEEN playlists and Streaming services.

4. Parametric EQ. I guess this has been mentioned so many times.

Thanks

My "understanding" of the app was it was going to be not only "backward compatible" but as all-encompassing as possible. Please understand this was the initial conception and more will be known as we go along.

Cheers!!

That sounds great! Hope progress would be shared from time to time, and what feature set will be included at various stages of development.
Thanks IF I!

Are we at the point where iFi has thought of maybe making a job post for an app developer or have you not gotten that far yet?

@iFi audio

From 20 April 2023 until today, 118 days have passed. Do you have any update regarding this App? Any beta version? Any Alpha? A Pre-Alpha, perhaps? Anything?

Not at this time, but I will pass along your interest in being a tester if they ask for folks.

Cheers!!

The field seems restless…Qobuz connect.

I know I am a broken record but very interested to dump Tidal ASAP!
I agree! But you also need to make these feelings known to Qobuz, as they are the ones to create a Qobuz connect!

But we do hear this!

Cheers!!

Right. Still, though, after 118 days you are still clueless....
Do and say as you wish because you are frustrated. It might or might not actually move the needle.

Suggestion. Read what you wrote to friends and family and ask them for feedback. They probably will be inclined to be sympathetic to you. Then ask them how they would feel if you said that to them with others around.

@Mr BubbaHyde is neither scheduling the iFi work, nor is he responsible for it. He is a human being on the other end of your comments.
(well, I think… there is alway Chat-GPT…).

I am not Ms. Manners and I am not your parent, so feel free to ignore what I have written. It is nothing to me other than feeling empathy when someone is attacked, even mildly. I also recognize the same trait in me, and maybe this is just a reminder to myself. Either way it is completely your call. Just advice from one human to another… unless one or the other of us are actually a generative AI model…

All I am saying is that after 119 days we should have a clue, a hint, to where this project is heading. We should have an idea about which stage they are currently at. Instead, we know nothing. I am not really needing any fancy features from this App. I already have PEQ, ANC and other features in my Qudelix-5K and FiiO BTR7, features I never use. What interests me in this App is a way to be notified for new firmware updates and the ability to install them from inside the App. Right now, for my GO Pod, I need to visit the iFi Download Hub, enter my details together with the Serial Number, download the firmware on my smartphone and install it via the GAIA App...

@jsmiller58 , it's sad that you are ready to judge (attack?) and talk about my manners when you do not know me at all but when it comes to the device, itself, the GO Pod in this case, you have very few things to say, almost zero suggestions to make, you are not supportive in resolving the bugs etc. You sound like you work for iFi, you do not sound like a normal owner/customer... I am sorry if you are "In over your head", sorry if you are too deeply involved in or with a difficult situation, beyond the point of being able to control or cope with things any longer. Your mental health issues are not my problem though and you should control your manners before addressing other people for theirs.

Quite human sir, in an "if we aren't living in the Matrix" sort of way :beyersmile:

And Thank you!
