iPad and Squeezebox
« on: 2 May 2015, 01:18 pm »
Just got my first iOS device, an iPad Mini, don't have a smartphone yet.  Is there an app available I can use instead of the Logitech remote to control the Transporter and Squeezebox in the second system?  Maybe something that shows the album artwork. Seems like I read about one a while back, but could be wrong.    :scratch:

There is an app called squeezepad which is excellent.

I use the Logitech Squeezebox Controller app. Works perfectly and has never once presented a problem.

I use IPENG, an app. It cost about $10 and I like it more the the free Logitech app which I also have. IPENG just seems to have better display and easier to use but agree the free app works very well

+1 on iPeng.  Been using it for many years.  Excellent app.

I use both iPeng and SqueezePad, tried the Logitech app and it's not as good as the other 2.
Both apps are great so it comes down to personal preference - I find myself using the SqueezePad app more than iPeng on my iPad.  I use iPeng in my phone...

Using Squeezepad at the moment and it's great.  No album artwork though.  But I realize now there is no artwork in Logitech Media Server on the computer where the files are stored.  The artwork is in iTunes.
