Description of Issue

I am unable to connect to my recently installed Roon server running on MacOS with my Android phone running the Roon Remote app.

I have tried the several troubleshooting suggestions in the Roon Remote page and ensured that both devices are connected to the same network.

This issue does not exist in similar product (Audirvana) and their remote app.

Hi thausken,

Thanks for writing in!

Can you confirm you have also attempted to use the .APK Roon download? If not, please give it a try below:

I’d also test out disabling your mac firewall and see if the issue persists.

Thanks!
