iTunes Remote 4+

Such a simple, yet logical little app that belies its usefulness. I love the ability to control my iTunes music server in my MacBook with this app and to be able to stream music anywhere in the house. Typical Apple design: lean, mean, simple, and as easy and effective as it gets.

Why do I need to connect to an iTunes library to connect to a new Apple TV and use the remote. Not a big ask. Also when I go through the hassle of opening a computer no jumping through hoops, why then be temperamental and forget the connected ‘library’ every now and then. When I buy a fridge it doesn’t ask to ‘connect’ to the kettle before it works. No, it just works? Maybe connecting to the ‘library’ is important to some but I think a big chunk of people buying Apple TV just want to be able to use their lpad or phone to hit up Netflix or Stan without having to check if their fridge is feeling ok..... I mean ‘library’. Do you think that might be a lofty aim you could strive for? I mean don’t prioritize it over going to the moon or even Mars or anything, but I think you should put that on your blue sky thinking ultimate aims list. Thanks for your consideration.

Really don’t like the way apps are allowed to bug you to rate / review them. Surely the App Store can collate the data in relation to how many users download an app, keep using it, update it and don’t delete it. Statistically, these people are happy with your app! :| So an app in the store could have stats listed, such as 1,162,814 downloaded this app last year - 1,851 people deleted it within 12 months. I’d call that a successful and popular app. Job done. Don’t bug me for ratings if I’m still using your app. Obviously I like it. If I feel inclined to give you suggestions (that you’ll likely ignore) I’ll go to the App Store and take the time to write down what I think and what has motivated me enough to give you my valuable time, as I have done today ;)
