Denon Cocoon for Pc

The app is not compatible with ios 11 please change this.

The cocoon is connected to my network, streams music and is assigned an IP but the cocoon app cannot find it on the network. The application should have the ability to manually assign the IP of the device so that it can be found. This application may have a lot of great features but it is useless if it cannot find the device.

Too bad, because the Cocoon itself is pretty decent (although not worth what it costs). There are 3 ways to connect Cocoon to your Wi-Fi network: #1 (using this app) didn't work, #2 (pushing a button on the router and then a button on the Cocoon itself) didn't work, #3 (logging on via a Browser) thankfully worked. This app has a terrible player. The UI is awful, very un-iPhone-like. Difficult to navigate. For example, if you click the "Now Playing" icon from the home page, it takes you to a screen that just says what's playing - you cannot pause, etc. You have to select the current source, then a different "Now Playing" icon. The Music Server functionality is worthless. It (sometimes) recognizes my DLNA/UPnP server. And when you navigate down to an album level, it sorts tracks alphabetically rather than by track number. That is beyond idiotic. It is a moot point, however, because when you select a song to play from a DLNA source, it just pops up the error message "Unable to Play". I don't even use this app because it is so crappy. I just use the Apple Remote app to control iTunes and send the output to the Cocoon via AirPlay. (This in itself is pretty slow and dodgy, I don't know if it's the app's or Apple's fault though.) Fortunately, the Cocoon sounds very good for what it is. Update for v. 1.0.2. Sorry, still terrible. It forces you to do a firmware update which nearly bricked the device. The update never completed but fortunately doing a cold reboot brought it back up. The update wipes out your network wifi settings and radio presets. The app can no longer find the Cocoon on the network. Which means no Internet radio. Thankfully AirPlay still finds it so its iTunes only now.

App connects to cocoon from iOS 7 bit on-off button remains in off position even when unit is playing and Cocoon app displays status correctly. Will use Airplay and wait for next bug fix to try this again for Netlink.
