First, let me say, I am very happy with the Wiim platform! I have replaced my six multi-zone home system with the following:
  • 3 Wiim Pros
  • 2 Wiim Pro Plus'
  • 1 Wiim Amp
I use a Sonance multi-zone amp to power the Pros / Pro Plus' in my system. My previous system had keypads wired with cat5 cable. I have replaced the keypads with wall-mounted 8" POE tablets in several zones and are working on some 5" Android POE in some areas. I used the Android app fully-kiosk to support the kiosk-approach (paid version) on each install.

I am using Google Home as my main app since Chromecast is my main app to control my zones. I would prefer to use the Wiim app and cannot because of the following:
  1. No landscape mode (overcame this with app screen orientation tool)
  2. No support for Ethernet - application requires wifi
  3. Would like application have ability to default to a zone
  4. Would like support for zone manual ordering vs alphabetical
I realize that supporting tablet approach in Wiim is somewhat of a niche market however, I love the platform and variety of audio protocols that the platform supports.

Thank you in advance for consideration!
