Hi...

I have a OLD iPad 2 model A1395 and can't get the BluOS controller to work on it.

The IOS is version 9.3.5

On the AppStore is says that the compatibility for iPhone/iPad requires iOS 9.3 or later and the app installs fine, but it getting stuck when it looks for available Bluesound players. I have changed the wifi settings on my router for the iPad from 2.4 ghz to 5 ghz but I got the same problem. I know I should get me a new iPad, but if I could get this iPad to work, the saved money could be used for a new  NODE X.....;-))

Thanks in advance for any help.

  Sorry Lucifer

  It's likely time for a new iPad...  even though according to Apple's specs, the App should load and run, we have seen issues. That being said, few Apps by anyone still work on these 10-year-old models.  And don't worry, you will still have budget room for a NODE or at least a PULSE FLEX to enjoy true multiroom with your existing player.

  So, legacy versions of the BluOS Controller are not available for download?

  I was hoping to use an old iPad 2 as a dedicated Bluesound Controller. 

  iOS 9.3.5 is where Apple stopped suppporting the iPad 2. 

  Is there a browser version of the Bluesound Controller might operate via the Safari interface?
