I use iPhone 11 Pro Max, iPad Mini 4, and Dell XPS 15. I much prefer the Dell. If I was going to purchase a new device, it would be an iPad Pro 12.9 inch.
I havenāt read this tread, but if you put an iDevice in āexclusiveā mode (locked to one app), you have it.
Also, an AppleTV remote will give you stop/start and next. TV hasnāt to be on.
Hereās to better IOS iPad and phone support.
Iād like a true iOS app. One where I can use fingers to expand photos or type. One that would allow making ROON a small window so I could use other apps as well.
And one that ROON wouldnāt have to continuously refresh itself if you want to do another task with your iPad while listening.

Donāt know if this thread is active, but Iād like to see some company come up with a premium, good materials dedicated roon remote, like the one that squeezebox did for their system back in the days. Nice screen, aluminium/good plastic quality wireless charging proximity sensing which zone it is in, perhaps looking lige the Duet from then?

I have a hand-me-down iPad from my wife that Iām converting to a Roon remote. Iāve stripped out all passwords, excess apps, etc., boiling it down as much as possible to just Roon. Iāve activated Guided Access and itās great.
One small nit I canāt seem to eliminate - when I power up the screen, I still get met with the lock screen, which hitting the physical home button gets me past. But Iād love to turn on the screen and see the Roon home screen.
Iāve checked all settings, turned off lock screen, etc. No luck.
Will this problem go away if I use a Smart Cover? Any help on this ridiculously trivial problem would be appreciated.

It all got fixed when I used the Smart Cover - that now locks/unlocks automatically when I close/open cover. Works like a charm!
You can turn off the lock screen in Windows. Google it.
Was an iPad issue, but appreciate the response. All good now.
By using Roon Remote for appleTV, you can do this.
Placing the icon top left, you wonāt need the screen to be on, in order to use the remote control.
