Either way, I’m sure @Achim1811 or @Maurizio will still mischievously and humorously exploit any “lost (or mislaid) in translation” opportunities
Of course, yes.
However, if I want to understand someone's joke or make a joke, automatic translation doesn't work very well.
Therefore, I sometimes can't understand the joking dialogue between @Brantome and @Achim1811 and feel like I'm an alien. A moment when you feel a little lonely. I need to study diligently to understand their great jokes.
Also, Google translate in Chrome browser handles these languages very well. However, this is not the case when there are multiple languages mixed within a single web page. The German you write cannot be automatically translated, so you need to tap the translate icon after selecting the text. This image is a translation screen.

What has any of this to do with Qobuz?

Nothing, but it has a lot to do with engendering a friendly group atmosphere

I appreciate that, but there is a point where enough is enough. If they want to swap stories about translation then they could start a new thread.

Well, for me, littering a thread with posts which have absolutely nothing to do with the topic is similar to the city landscape plastered with tags and other graffiti.
But, let's just drop it for now.
Edit: I've changed my opinion. What difference does it actually make?

Does anybody know if wiim home app supports now Q recommended track list based on your listening habits?
After being delayed for a year, Qobuz has finally launched in my country. I am on a free trial starting today. 
First impressions.
Although it can't match Spotify's usability, Qobuz runs noticeably smoother than Amazon music. I've only just started using it and there's still a lot I don't understand, but I instantly knew how good this app was.
Disappointments.
Can't use GoogleCast for gapless playback.
Can't use Alexa routines.
I thought about using BubbleUPnP for gapless playback, but to be honest, it's a bit cumbersome to use all three apps together.
Now I'm trying to figure out an alternative to Alexa. (Using the alarm feature of WiiM solves half of my problems, though...)
Good points.
It is a pleasant surprise to be able to select any category you like and configure your home screen.
Qobuz shows up on the favorites screen of the WiiM app. I am very happy to be able to sort the list of artists. (Can't do this in AM.)
Before I install BubbleUPnP, I have a question: in the Bubble app, can I add tracks to my favorites (or playlist)?
Thanks to all who have answered my questions here.

@WiiM Support @WiiM Team Please fix this grammar issue

What sort of things did you do in routines and with Alexa voice control? It’s a pity WiiM haven’t fully implemented what their faq states about Alexa voice control e.g. running presets, or those might have come in handy.
Also, I’ve read in the past that Qobuz looked at potential voice control, but ditched that for various reasons including the echo devices being “lo fi” - however, WiiM have shown that you can use voice control along with hi res streaming viz. Amazon Music, but I guess qobuz’s ship has sailed for that.
I’m guessing December 2027. But I hope you’re right.Thank you.
Yes, of course I'm going to try all the methods (although I can't use LMS or Roon because I don't want to use a PC.)
And I have a feeling that Qobuz connect will be released in December.
I have used BubbleUPnP for long time with Tidal. You can add Tracks to your favorites list - and also bubbleupnp internal playlists. But these are not related to Tidal - it is a system internal thing.
Did you know that you can share an entire playlist from your tidal app straight with Bubble App so it queues the songs and plays them?
Not sure about quobuz, used it for approx. 1 year long back - but I recall it did work quite similiar.
Give it a try - its not that expensive
I haven't tried anything yet, but I am in the process of coming up with an alternative to the alexa routine using the Android macro app.
(I use Macrodroid app. I know IFTTT supports Alexa, but I don't want to pay for it every month...)
To tell you the truth, I rarely use voice control these days. I only use one. Every morning I say "I'm up" to the Echo, Alexa makes a little small talk, then tells me the weather for the day, and finally plays my favorite AM playlist on WiiM. I would be happy if this could be replaced by Qobuz. But probably not possible at this time.
It would be nice if we could call up the WiiM smart presets via voice control, but is that likely to be impossible?

That would be great.
In your case, is Bubble enough? (Do you not need the Tidal app?).
It's a shame that there is no Tidal in my country, I will try to see if I can do the same with Bubble's Qobuz.
Thanks!

It was not enough for me
Search experience is way better in native app. So I use it to create playlists and browse songs. Then using "share with" function to send to Bubble. I am also using mConnect, which has a quobuz implementation and nice UI.Endgame is for sure jplay - but that I find quite costly. Edit: jplay only available for iOS.

Endgame is for sure jplay - but that I find quite costly. Edit: jplay only available for iOS.
I purchased Bubble, but I can't login to Qobuz on Bubble. I signed up for Qobuz with my Google account, but Google login doesn't seem to work on Bubble. I will look into this a little more...
Maybe you could try to create an app password and use that to login. However, did not face that issue as I did not use google auth.
Good luck!
