That would be the ultimate solution of course (as long as it offers "WiiM green" like before).

Hi MrSoul4470, Team

Thank you for your feedback! To select the "WiiM green" theme in the app, go to the 'More' tab and select 'App Appearance'. We’re planning to add a light theme in the future, giving users more options to match their preferences. We understand everyone has their own style!

New app installed today, I do not have any issue with any "purple" fonts. New app looks slightly better. But changing version to 3 with so small changes is in some way disappointing. There are still no spectrum analizer New clock brings in fact some value as have seconds. Digital one didn't have. And is in fact quite attractive. But for new white digital clock there is lack of customization - simple white is too simple. Some options would be appreciated

That sounds very interesting, I would like that.

As it stands just now, rather than being a standalone profile as you and others have proposed in the past (and as I recently mocked up in my thread 'Saved settings/ profiles’), it’s tied to preset content e.g. if you already have a preset to play a playlist, you can edit that preset to also set its audio output, volume, EQ, shuffle/repeat and play duration. They’re hoping to add “Input Preset and group playback” to the beta sometime this week.

I’m sure they’re open to adding other settings such as use of the sub - for example, it looks like they’ll take e on my suggestion to include fixed volume on/off as well as just the simple volume setting they already had.

So I understand. Coming is the option to pick say a radio station on vtuner, then adjust volume, eq and such specifically to that station?

Specifically to that preset, to be more exact. Currently the beta allows you to edit a previously created preset (say one that presets your radio station) to associate volume setting, as well as EQ, audio output and play duration (if desired).

So for each vtuner station saved I could have individual eq, volume? And do I have to be on a special update program as nothing like this is showing in my update v3?

For each preset, yes. And as I said, I’m using the beta firmware but I imagine there will be a public release in a couple of weeks time.

Some people do like it, and some people don’t, I personally don’t like it.

I don't mean it's bad, but the purple color is stupid. It must only be in your company colors (green, black, white) and that is the best.

They must be basing the colour scheme on this

As WiiM Support already explained in #61, if you don't like purple, you can change it back to green.

Which is better, bad or stupid?

Stupid is rather derogatory - fine if you don’t like the colour, but no need to call it stupid…

 

[Jcashman55]

A lot of comments on them wasting time with clocks. I suppose on one level, sure, it’s true. However , I’ve been so impressed with what they have done in the ‘real’ parts of the system, that I will cut them some slack for now.

And some users did ask for them after all

We need to send @Wiimer to church to confess his sin.

Where can the color be changed? Sorry for sounding stupid, I'm not American.
