Are there both android and iOS apps to browse and select music? Is there audio out so I could plug it into speakers rather than go to a Squeezebox?

I don't know about iOS but I use an Android app. There are two mini rca jacks for audio out.

I can't speak to iOS but there is a fantastic Android app that I use all the time. Much better than buying remote controls. The VortexBox also has its own "player" where you can feed into local amplified speakers. But what I do is to use the network drive sharing capability of VortexBox to play music on any computer in the house using a media player.

You can use a auxiliary cable or bluetooh music from your android phone.. but you can not dock any android phone on this sysrem.

I have an iphone 5. I use pandora via bluetooth or cable and it will give me the capability to see album cover, song name,artist and album name. I can also Select genre through a list on the screen to change stations. As for video. I'm not sure. Never tried that.

I use it with my Iphone. It is a mixed blessing. On the media I ripped with EAC or dBPoweramp, the music sounds fantastic. On commercially acquired media, you are acutely aware of the missing dynamics.

Yes you can. It plays all music from iphones and mp3 players with ease. Just plug it in and play.

Hi! I have an android phone. I literally just opened up my music and Pandora app and it played. I just plugged the cord into the headphone spot!

I could stream music that was on my iPhone to the iReceiver. I could not stream music from Pandora etc. Hope this helps.

My music plays from my Droid Razr Max HD, however the app from google store does not work. You don't really need it.

I used pandora and spotify on my phone with it. The speaker responds to whatever is playing on your device

It's not designed to do this, hence having to turn the volume up. In the days of Squeezebox you could buy the Duet - the network streamer part would allow you plug into a stereo. Apparently you can build your own out of a Raspberry Pi.

I use Google play music and it works fine. Any music that you can play through your phone where you can change tracks should work through bluetooth. I would check with the app people to see if they support bluetooth connections if you're unsure.

So chapman, I don't need the Bluetooth thing to play music wirelessly. How did You get the ipad to play music to the receiver via wifi. Does the receiver comes out as a option in the ipad to play music wirelessly ? And how about the iPhone app does it work with the wifi or do I need to buy the Bluetooth adapter?

I recommend getting Apple TV. It is cheaper and does a lot more. I returned my squeezebox and saved $200 for the apple tv

I was able to use the auxiliary port to play my android phone. Regarding the USB port, I picked up a cheap mp3 player download my music and plugged it in without a problem. Hope this helps a little. Stan

Can't speak for iPhone, but if its anything like my android device, it's pretty much useless. None of the control or EQ buttons doing anything. They only work when playing mp3s on the device itself.
