Does exactly what I need it to do.

Vincent Decker

Just excellent

Graham Allen

The best Squeezebox player on the app store.

Ronald Jobson

Nicest looking app out of the bunch. I like that the album art is shown when browsing artists not just albums. Works great

Gary

Still need the original Squeeze Box remote for some settings & occasional Server re-installs but I've used Orange Squeeze exclusively for playback for several years. Works perfectly for my purposes! Stable, with no issues.

Mike Dubitz

Best Squeezebox app I have used!

I'm coming from Squeeze Commander, that stopped working on the latest Android. All in Artist -> Album sorting does not work well. I chose "Artist, Year, Album", but the order is pretty much random. I'd like to see an option to display the album year. Link audio only adjusts audio of one (of my 8) boxes that are in the same synchronisation group. Not all of them, proving it quite cumbersome to adjust all my players.

Great app but cannot get it to pause playback when making/receiving call despite option being selected ☹️ Using Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 Pro UK

Paul Arnold

This is a good app, but one feature missing that some alternatives have is an ability to drag and drop to adjust the now playing playlist. You can easily slide tracks off to delete but nothing to move them around. Most everything else is perfect though.
