Updated 'Remote' App With iOS 7 Redesign Hits App Store

[Ed217]

The Apple TV UI is just awful. White on white is terrible. Poorest example of a UI Apple has ever produced.

New icon looks good!

No it doesn't. The circle is too big, making the sides fall in from the visual gravity.

And why do they have a blue area inside a white box? Why not just make the whole box blue with the arrow in the middle?

Apples new icon templates are horrible!

Why does this app work and look better than the music app in iOS7?!?!?!?!?!?!

Thanks for killing iOS 6 support for yet another app, Apple. 🙁

And "Remote" up until now still supported my Generation 1 iPod Touch (which oddly enough is mostly used as a tethered AC powered end table remote for one of my rooms in my whole house AppleTV based AV system. I mean my iPod Touch 4th Gen (only one model back from current) does NOT support iOS7. That says a LOT about what a PIG (and an ugly one at that IMO) iOS7 is. They should not be ditching support for models that are only one version back, IMO. The Remote App is useful even on OLD OLD iOS devices (frankly all my old ones were going to bend up being room remotes at some point) and so it should continue to support them, IMO.

Just down loaded this app, and i am struggling with a couple of things.

Can you add just songs to the up next feature, i only seem to be able to add albums.

Can you put your song list in artist order like on a desktop version, when i switch to artists it just shows albums not every song individually.

Does anybody else have this problem. When scrolling down(I only want to go down one level to the movies) it skips two and goes to the lower screen. It won't just skip one down I have to keep trying over and over.

Was hoping this version would permit physical volume button control. Volume slider is not responsive and difficult to make incremental adjustments. Other apps like Pandora implement physical volume button control and it works flawlessly.

The slider in apps like Pandora just controls iOS's system-wide volume level. These apps don't alter the function of the physical buttons at all.

The iPad app is still not updated, just iPhone it seems.
