App not stable

iPortConnect crashes while setting up my hardware. Seems like I have to throw it away.

by Sad User :(

Please fix. iPortConnect no longer works with the latest IOS 14 update.

Brand new keypad on iOS 13, and you simply cannot use it. The LED says that it has connected to the network, but iPortConnect cannot see this and simply stays in the “Configuring” state until the device gives up. The website has a support button that simply repeats the help prompt over and over.

I can’t get it to set up. Phone app crashes. Tablet app gets through the install and the clicker still doesn’t function. I tried hard reset from the instructions and now it won’t even get halfway through the install. It’s a piece of trash.

I am a professional installer and have found that currently this software is broken. And the technical support team currently has zero fix for this product.

This unit costs entirely too much considering. Having to remember to charge it every couple of days (even if it doesn’t get used) is absurd. And now it is worthless because it will not update to the new firmware and pare with my devices. PIECE OF JUNK

Doesn’t work on the latest iOS. Back button at top left and info button at top right are not touchable. Useless junk.

Cannot program device. App crashes immediately after ios14.

App flashes briefly on screen when attempting to connect to a port then crashes. Had been a great little device but is useless without functioning software. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️—>⭐️

I enjoyed using my remote for my Sonos for a while...but now iPortConnect just crashes on load and can no longer be used.

by Brcar

Was excited for this to work but crashes every time I try to set it up..returning it! Come development team fix it!

by Sledmonkey

Should be removed from store to prevent people from buying the hardware. Maybe the devs would fix it then.

Seems they have stopped updating iPortConnect

Iport Xpress is really promising for Sonos control and in time I hope will get much better, but the current early version of the firmware completely disables the iPort when the Sonos zone you are trying to control is grouped with any zone. The product is only usable for standalone single Sonos zones. For any Sonos user with more than 1 unit, this is severely crippling.

The firmware needs to be fixed so that the remote operates exactly like the physical buttons on the Sonos unit. When grouped, the iPort remote should control the volume of the sub-zone only (not the whole group) and send play/pause/FF commands to the group master.

The one divergence from the replication of the physical buttons could be an OPTION in the firmware to have the volume control the whole group instead of the sub-zone, but this should be a toggle-able option not the default functionality. The default should be to replicate the physical Sonos buttons.

I purchase several of these around my home where I have Sonos speakers. To not have to run to IPad or speaker itself to change volume is a great unit. I mounted the one piece with screws with the other supplied holder I placed in my restrooms near shower so I can have unit close. My issue with these is they are not seen from IPad to IPad. I have to install them all over again if I just so happen to b using different IPad when I am listening to music upstairs verse downstairs. IPort would love if it worked like other apps such as Sonos. Once it see network it is on I have my speakers and music no matter the iPad.

Been loving these buttons for years. The iOS problems does not seem to the developers and if you looked at there support page you could see they were not idle.

Must have if you have Sonos. I am so tired of scrolling thru apps on my phone to turn vol up or down. Can ask scroll through favorites but I have found I need to limit it to just a few favorites or I just get annoyed at switch time. So far any problems have been fixed by iOS updates not app updates. iPortConnect is just for setup. It is the physical button that is pure gold.

This is what I have been waiting for to make my system awesome for our house. It is a great addition, easy to control and makes the home system truly awesome.
