I have been using the system for about five months now (12-room setup w/casatunes amps) and absolutely love it. Had a pro install the speakers and cables, but did the rest myself and must say it was very straightforward and painless process. Great help and incredible responsiveness from Wade too. I have installed the android apps on our phones and between me, the wife and kids, the system has been flawless for all.

So to my question, is there a way to show album art in the “artist” selection screen. While I like being able to see the album art by “album”, I would also like to see the album cover art after you select an artist. Currently it only shows them as a list. I have read through the posts and can’t seem to find this as an option. Any plans to add this functionality or is there another checkbox that I’m missing somewhere?

Thanks in advance and great job on a terrific product!!!

Thank you for all the nice complements.
The current version does not show album art in the artist or other lists, only the album lists. We will definitely consider this in a future version of the app, since it would add to the experience of using the app. Also, we will probably add album artwork for search results.

How do you like the “App Widget” (the Android Home Screen widget introduced in the Android Phone app version 4.xx or the Tablet app version 2.xx)?. Do you find it useful?

Hi Kim, thanks for the quick response. I hope the feature finds its way into the app.  As for the widget, I tried it a few times but I like the robustness of the main app so much that I find that I use it virtually all of the time.  Thanks!
