I was wondering if a single WiiM Amp can be controlled from more than one device - say a tablet and phone - or can you only use the device the WiiM Amp was set up on?

Any device (phone / tablet) with the wiim app on the same network can control all wiims on that network.
 
I also don't have a problem with my phone, computer or tablet working at the same time and supporting WiimAmp, sometimes I have to wait a while until the device is found.
 
Another query regarding this: if I am casting from one device, say an iPad, can I also use the WiiM Home App from another device, an Android phone for example, or can you only use the App and its controls on the casting device?
 
I cast from my phone via Airplay and have an old 5s I use as a desktop display at the same time. I have basic play/pause next/previous track and volume controls as well as album art & stream data. No access to the queue though (same on the source device & fully expected behaviour).

Occasionally the time bar gets confused (reported via the app before anyone asks :)) , as does the art display. But otherwise yes, you can.
