RE: Spotify connect on Phantom in few days - ragwo - 26-Dec-2015 Nice! How did you get the beta FW? RE: Spotify connect on Phantom in few days - ragwo - 26-Dec-2015 Could you post some screen shots of the Spotify UI?

Spotify will be available through spark on the 25 of January. Not a few days, but better late than never. RE: Spotify connect on Phantom in few days - Teliaved - 28-Dec-2015 I see it as a very positive change that Deviate goes through beta release cycle with real customers. At least where the changes deal with User Interface and User experience.

As far as I know they have been doing this since they were first released (I believe that the beta test program is called "Phantom Pioneer") but only the very first customers were invited to participate. I bought mine at the end of March so I wasn't invited. RE: Spotify connect on Phantom in few days - Teliaved - 29-Dec-2015 Thanks for the info EvPa. And a big thank you to Ol1v1er for sharing details on the beta version. I am glad to see that Devialet involves directly it's customers (community?) in the process of product design and test.

Testing it since last saturday. Works perfectly ! Yeah, I see what you mean. Devialet does not understand the importance of software development and progress. Yearly base versions should by leaps and bounds better, not a tiny integration and a few bug fixes. They need to invest in a much more progressive software development team. Spark should work on iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus out of the gate. They need a Apple Watch player. Where is the integration with Apple TV? iTunes integration is a joke to be honest. Not even iPad Pro resolution supported. CoverArt are badly compressed. If they were heavily invested in building proper software, they would jump on every new piece of API apple is releasing, showcasing how great it CAN BE on Apple ecosystem. Start by having monthly point releases with a fair amount of progress in them, then a major yearly upgrade. At this snail speed, we´ll be left in the dust. Sorry for ranting, just feel frustrated at the speed of development. Feels more like some indie app, then an audio ecosystem. Spotify connect on Phantom in few days - martinskeem - 16-Jan-2016 Either that, or just position themselves as a truly great hardware maker and focus efforts on a robust interface to Google Cast, Bluesound, Sonos etc. Current strategy is clearly not sustainable (just look through the forums...) and they will eventually lose out to much bigger and mature software makers Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
