Description

A simple control watchapp for the basic functions of your network-enabled Yamaha AV receiver. Never look for the remote again!

This watchapp is unofficial and not endorsed or supported by Yamaha.

Features:
- Power toggle - standby/on*

- 2-click preset scene launch, or manual input selection (HDMI, Spotify, Pandora, Airplay, Sirius, Net Radio, USB, Bluetooth, UPnP, Tuner...)**
- DSP program selection
- Basic playback control & info - previous track, next track, play/pause (if supported by the source)
- Near real-time status updates, no need to refresh manually

Not supported:
- Multiple devices or multiple zones
- Source browsing (menus)
- Advanced sound & video settings

* Ensure the 'Network Standby' feature is activated to be able to control/turn on the device when in standby mode.
