Has anyone used the new Innuos 2.0 Sense music app? Compared it to Roon?

I compared the two as I am a lifetime Roon customer.  I prefer the sound of the new Innuos Sense music app.  More natural and less electronic or digital sounding.  Not day and night, but better. My big issue is Innuos Sense does not seem to keep playing music, like Roon, when the album is complete.  Roon had a Radio switch that played artists similar to the artist as a continuous stream and I loved it.  Heard many new artists I loved this way.  
Anyone know if Innuos Sense has a similar setting? I can’t seem to find it.

@mahughes While what I do on this site is none of your business, I did read the blog.  If you have Tidal, maybe your Tidal integration worked different than mine. 

There is partial Tidal integration, but not all of my playlists appeared in Sense.  For those that did, sometimes the individual tracks appeared and sometimes not.  When not, I get a "Playlist is currently empty" message.

No idea what your first sentence means @oldschool1948 but it reads somewhat unnecessarily aggressively. 
As per my original post, Tidal integration is not in place as yet in terms if it being implemented as they’ve implemented the Qobuz integration. Results are therefore not as predictable as Innuos would like.

I'm not a Roon user, but really enjoy my Innuos Zenith and 2.06 is a great improvement (sonically and UI). Some bugs, but definitely better across the board.

Unfortunately I am amp swapping so have my backup system now (which my ears remind me of), but the upgrade for 2.0 and above is really a major overhaul and I like it.

Only minor bugs from what I can tell, but you can notify Innuos through the app regarding any hang ups you have.

This post is so helpful and interesting. I am awaiting the arrival of a new Innuos Zenith myself and am a long time Roon user too. Thanks to all of the great sharing of information by everyone, I will definitely be getting the Sense app. Reading what grannyring said about it's affect on his system was eye opening for sure. I will be using it with the Merason Dac1 and the Network Acoustics ENO system. After reading all this today I'm even more stoked than ever!
