iTunes Remote is the best way to control Apple Music, iTunes, or the Apple TV app from anywhere in your home. Simply download the app to your iPhone or iPad, and connect directly to Apple Music, iTunes, or the Apple TV app on your Mac or PC.
With iTunes Remote you can:
• Access your Apple Music, Apple TV, or iTunes libraries
• Browse music by artist, albums, and songs
• Browse movies, TV shows, and podcasts
• Create and edit playlists
• See upcoming songs with Up Next
• Search your entire Apple Music, Apple TV, or iTunes libraries
• Explore shared Apple Music, Apple TV, or iTunes libraries
• Listen with AirPlay
• Send music to AirPlay speakers
• Group speakers together to play music in multiple rooms at the same time
• Set the volume on each speaker independently
Requirements:
• iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 11.4 or later
• Wi-Fi connection to Apple TV, Apple Music, or iTunes on a Mac or PC
• macOS 10.15.2 or higher for Apple Music and the Apple TV app
• iTunes 12.8 or later is recommended for use with iTunes Remote
Browsing is tedious at best, can’t edit or create playlists, no landscape mode to actually see the title of the now playing , can’t be an airplay receiver to just stream to your phone, doesn’t use the iPhone lock screen “now playing” so you always have to open the app, no lock screen widget, does not work on older iOS like itouch4 so we can recycle those useless devices in remotes
Amazing for my complex set up!

I have 4 receivers which power up 11 sets of speakers. Each receiver is hooked up via 3.5mm to RCA cable to Airport Express hubs. From the app I can control which receiver is to pick up the feed and the volume of each receiver. I have music outside and inside so the different volumes are great to have.Being able to create a basic playlist is awesome because any guest can grab my phone and pick out songs they want to hear. All the music is stored on iTunes on my Mac. In hindsight I could have used a wireless system like Sonos but intimately this was way less expensive. Love the app!
Not working well anymore

This used to be a great app but recently it keeps glitching. When my phone screen goes dark and I have to wake my phone up again it just keeps flashing and doesn’t work at all. I have to swipe the app away in the background and open it up again. It does this every time now. It’s unfortunate because I like the app better than the remote that came with my old Apple TV.
