Is Roon slowly “dying”?

Really? I have not had an issue with any android devices, and I’ve used Roon since 2015. Now, granted I only use Samsung Android devices, so, maybe that is a difference.

If you are still having issues, perhaps you should revisit your support thread?

Or, if you loose connection to the Core, choose to add the server IP address and use the following: 255.255.255.255.
