What is Qobuz Connect ?

Qobuz Connect is a feature that allows you to control music playback remotely. From the Qobuz app, you can start and manage playback on a compatible device connected to the same network (speaker, amplifier, streamer..) without relying on another app or using Bluetooth. This ensures the highest audio quality and allows you to take full advantage of all the features Qobuz as to offer.

Qobuz Connect lets you remotely control compatible devices using a dedicated Qobuz protocol, ensuring optimal audio quality (bit-perfect, with no protocol limitations). It offers seamless playback with no interruptions, thanks to a shared queue across Qobuz apps, and allows you to control one Qobuz app from another (for example, controlling the desktop app from the mobile app). You also get the full Qobuz experience, including all features and editorial content, directly on your Hi-Fi equipment.

So no difference then..roger

I signed up to be a pilot user, but unfortunately it doesn't yet support Bluesound Node - https://help.qobuz.com/en/articles/314578-list-of-brands-integrated-into-qobuz-connect. Bummer.

Apologies in advance for what I’m sure is a silly question, but when using this app, is one streaming music from one’s iPad to the streamer, or just controlling the streamer, which is independently pulling music from it’s own internet connection?

I’m just thinking I’d rather just control the streamer from the ipad rather than sending music from the ipad to the streamer…or maybe I’m just creating demons which don’t really exist?

Many thanks!

The iPad or iphone act as a remote control
