Tango Remote for iPad/iPhone

We like to play our music through our ipad but always had to run into the camper to change the song and adjust volume. The app once installed on two or more devices allows us to control the device playing the music inside the camper over the outdoor speakers from up to 50 feet away with our second device. In my case my iPad is hooked up to my stereo inside and playing and I use my iPhone to adjust the volume, playlist, skip, repeat and so on for the songs. One of the best camping apps I bought.

Want to give an update. The new OS for apple was launched and I downloaded tonight. Well unlike eveRy other app who stepped up to the plate and updated to be fully compatible with the new OS for free, these guys want 2.99.

3 dollars is nothing but the principle of it pisses me off. With that said anyone looking to buy it 2.99 is a decent price and most likely the last OS from apple we will see in 24 months or available on current devices. So not a bad deal even though they are a sorry lot.

Yes, that's a bummer.

All of my updates were indeed free; and I have updated them all.

X96, I just bought this app after reading your review. The app still appears to work with IOS 7. They will definitely be hearing from me before I buy their update!

I'm all about posting pictures from my trips. I came across this neat app called PostUno that lets you post to multiple sites at one time instead of going into each app to post them. You can still edit pictures in it and write whatever caption you want but it just saves you a heck of a lot of time. https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/post...3365?ls=1&mt=8

I have found all functions still seem to work well over Bluetooth for my iTunes music. I read that the features not supported is the ability to change itune radio channels and if that is the only set back....I am not happy they did this but can live with it.

[KJcachers]

I haven't heard back from them yet....shocker!

got an email from their support. They told me to request a refund through my iTunes account and then repurchase the new version of the app. They said it takes Apple about a week to process so time will tell. You might want to try it also. Here is a link to how to make the request:

Has anyone found a good satellite finder app for setting up satellite tv antennas?

Dish pointer pro is best. Expensive, but will let you know if there's a shot.
