Last update included a Rovi Database fix. This fix caused the Uniti Cores to stop playing and reset. This required a firmware update to clear. Unit is no longer resetting but now that I can finally use my core again it appears as if the app does not work the same with older versions of Android. This app is constant black eye for a high end audio company. I just lost the use of my equipment for a month because of an app update. And this is not the first time this has happened.

Thank you for your review. I can confirm both the APP release and the Core release are not related; both resolved different issues. If you still having issues, please contact or tech support team who will be able to support you.

EDIT: Naim has being doing better for Android users. The connection is more stable and devices are detected more reliably. However, it still regularly requires you to exit the app and restart it to get connection back to the unit. I'm changing from 2 to 3 stars. Previous review from 2016: App crashes regularly using upnp, connection gets lost when bringing app back up, multiroom volume control erroneously shows devices at the room volume or not at all... Come on Naim, you can do better for us Android users!

I've been using this app for several months now. It is a bit disappointing, the OIS version flows better, using the back button doesn't take you back to the previous selection, but jumps back to the top of the list, it works fine on the OIS version. UPDATED The most recent update just killed Qobuz, but it is now resolved (thank you). If the back button function was fixed that would be a much better experience.

UPDATE: Qobuz have fixed their issue Hi Keith, the issue with Qobuz playlists is a result of a recent (unannounced) change on their side that breaks one of the Android libraries we use. In the meantime, you can global search for Qobuz albums in the app and play them from the search results. Please contact support@naimaudio.com for any more help.
