Logitech Touch Remote Control Apps

[MartinT]

I thought it would be useful to gather all known remote control apps for the popular Logitech Touch music streamer into one thread.

I'll start with Squeeze Remote by 7Illusions, a Windows 8 App. It works very nicely on both my Windows 8 64-bit desktop and Microsoft Surface RT tablet machines, controlling many of the Touch's functions and including the all-important ability to search through my local media library and also through Spotify's vast music library. You can control your Touch in two ways, either directly via your LMS (Logitech Media Server) software, or via mysqueezebox.com. There are a few idiosyncrasies in the UI but it's continually being improved and I find I'm using it every day to control music coming from my 'big rig'. The App costs £3.19 and is available as a trial.

This is Squeeze Remote for Windows Phone 8, which also works well.

I use Squeeze Commander on Samsung Tablet and Sony Phone. Can be a bit laggy with large directories other than that easy to use.

Thanks, Steve. Is that for the Android platform? Any chance of a screenshot?

Hi Martin, some SqueezeCommander screen shots available on the Google play site...

...I've been using it for a few years, and very good it is too, especially if one uses the local cache options

Just tried it on my new tablet (Samsung Note 8.0) and it runs like a greased weasel, and that's with over 2K albums...

Hi Steve, what version of LMS are you running, I've found that since going to 7.2 things have really speeded up, I think the embedded SQLite DB has provided a big performance gain...

As a MediaMonkey user I prefer to use MonkeySqueeze

[MartinT]

For what platform, Stan?

[StanleyB]

That's on Windows. I am using it with W7/64

Hi Stan, does MediaMonkey/MonkeySqueeze replace LMS in your setup, or does it work in conjunction with it?

Edit; Just answered my own question...
