rtRemote for iTunes

I was a previous user of the Apple Remote app for the iOS platform. I wanted similar functionality on the Win8 platform and this app delivers the major features. I am a happy with the app -- and I even paid to remove the adverts. But it is not perfect. When I manually search for a song by typing in the search dialog box, the app crashes after I select a song to play. I prefer to view my catalog by looking at the name of artists rather than the name of albums -- while the app allows me to do this, I have to tell the app to sort by artist each time I select a song to play. You cannot create or modify playlists. Despite these quibbles, the app performs admirably. I noticed some negative reviews questioning the purpose of the app. I use it because I have multiple speakers in my home connected through Apple Airplay. I can control these speakers through this app on my Win 8 tablet.

Does everything they say it can do. Looks pretty and functions well. Everything it is, is flawless, but the thing it doesn't is pretty big. It would be a perfect remote if it could add to and edit the "up next" list.

I admit, the app is not useful in most cases, but if one wants to use it as a sidebar to control music without having to switch windows on the desktop, this is perfect!

th7s app deducted money from my paypal account without me ever having conceded to it (ad removal upgrade) BEWARE!

Downloaded the app - I was expecting it would find my Apple music library the way my iPhone does but it didn't. Three options were available 1. Change PC Settings Change them to what! 2. Check network connection My network connection is fine 3.Turn on find devices and content it's turned on. The other option was to manually input my Apple Computer name - I didn't bother. The expectation of modern apps are to be somewhat convenient with easy set up. This wasn't the case. Removed from my Surface 4. If someone figured this out, feel free to let me know!
