Useless
Even though Kenwood is a great brand, this app is useless… highly disappointed… giving one star just cause it doesn’t let me choose zero

Needs a LOT of work, largely unusable.
First off, this app is very unstable with the Kenwood BT connection requiring you to frequently restart the deck to use the app to adjust controls, cycling the app is ineffective, has to be a receiver restart. Then the EQ isnt real time, you have to go into each frequency set it, hit save, it kicks you back to start screen THEN it applies your change, requiring you to renavigate back to the EQ and then to the proper frequency to readjust. Same with balance and fade, you have to select, then hit save, kicks you back to menu THEN it makes your change, requiring you to renavigate to further adjust. Would be MUCH better if your adjustments just adjusted on the spot without saving and renavigating after each save. No matter, the BT is so bad that it will disconnect from the receiver before you can get much done, requiring a powerdown to get it to work again. No, its not my BT, cause my streaming music continues to work fine while this terrible app continually disconnects. JVC/Kenwood should be embarrassed with such a poor app attached to their product!
