RoonARC: iPhone + DAC vs Android DAP

[BlackJack]

Roon ARC currently doesn’t work at all on A&K devices:

Failed login to Roon ARC with InvalidRecaptcha error on Astell&Kern SR35 (ref#0IMCRY) [Investigating]

Hi everyone, Here’s the situation: Astell & Kern SR35, SE300 (whether this issue affects the SP series is not confirmed) rely on an older native WebView implementation that can fail Google security validation during SSO. The usual workaround of sideloading browsers is not available on these devices. We’re in direct communication with their team and will report back with more information once available. Thank you for your patience in the meantime.

Roon and supported streaming services seem to be based on current internet and security protocols which need constant updating to work. Without those Roon may cease to work sooner rather than later and users are left with what the devices seem to be designed for (playing local music and supporting uPnP/DLNA for home networks) only.
