JPlay App


I just tried the new JPLAY app that I read about on 6moons. It’s clearly sounds better than Roon in my system. Looks like I’ll be using it from now on. Free 14 day trial, give it a shot.

Thanks for the kind words and for the input!

If battery life is a priority, the **Black theme** is the way to go — it completely dims the black areas of the screen on iPhone OLED displays, which is where the real energy savings come from. Dark themes save some power vs Light, but Black takes it further by letting individual pixels turn fully off.

Glad you're enjoying the new features.

Yes, JPLAY has exactly this functionality — it's called **JPLAY Radio**. Once you start playing a track, JPLAY Radio will continue playback with music similar to what you were listening to, drawing from your library and the streaming services you have connected (Qobuz, TIDAL, HIGHRESAUDIO). Like Roon, it's a great way to discover new music.

To activate JPLAY Radio:

1. Tap the mini player bar at the bottom of the screen to open the Now Playing view.
2. Swipe left twice on the Now Playing screen.
3. On that screen you'll find the option to activate JPLAY Radio.

Once enabled, JPLAY will automatically play similar tracks as your current queue ends. 

Best regards,
Marcin

I didn’t know about the swipe option, lot’s of little shortcuts demonstrated by the guy who wrote the software winkbut if you give Jplay a shot (and you should) and can't find that feature quickly, the way I found it is one clicks on the little bullseye at the top of the screen- took me a few minutes to figure out. A picture is worth a thousand words: I would post it here but of course pictures are not friendly with Audiogon’s forum compared to others... 

But I posted it on Antipodes forum:
