General Discussion / AmpWiFi remote control of WACUP using Android
« on: December 31, 2023, 04:12:12 AM »
Hey All. Just a shout out to the AmpWiFi remote control app on Android to control WACUP.
A very robust remote control with a very intuitive interface.
I rarely touch my PC anymore. I leave WACUP
running continuously either playing music or paused and typically my only interaction with WACUP is through AmpWiFi.
The only time I go to the computer is to call up previously created playlists. For example during the holidays I needed to start a seasonal playlist on the computer. When switching between playlists it takes about 2 seconds for the app to update and recognize the new playlist on your phone.
The App gives typical controls like pause/play, FF, REW, previous track, next track plus shuffle, random, and volume control.
You get full access to your library for song search and playlist creation on your phone. (Note you cannot save playlists directly on your phone).
I have three different profiles on my phone for controlling 3 different computers running WACUP.
Runs over WiFi (not Bluetooth!) so provides remote control capability throughout my home and a pretty good distance out side.
Can't say enough good things about this App. Provides a fantastic extension of WACUP.
