Will there be a new iPhone app for the WiiM Pro, and if so, will it include the ability to add selections to the existing play queue?

The remote was marketed as a separate optional accessory only, so I’m sure it will get its own separate listing. I never saw where it would be included in the Pro package. And the remote will work with either the Mini or Pro.

3 Questions on the Handheld Remote for Saving Internet Stations:
1 - The current Wiim phone app can save up to 12 radio station presets, but the image of the the remote only has 4 numbered preset buttons. Will the remote be capable of saving more than 4 internet radio station presets... by possibly using multiple pressing of the 4 preset buttons, or even pressing a combination of those buttons?
2 - Will the remote be introduced at the same time as the Wiim Pro unit, or could that possibly be made available available earlier?
3 - I see that the Pro unit has a programmable capacitive touch preset button... is there a method where that button could be programmed to "scroll" through all of the 12 station presets that are presently accommodated by the Wiim phone app?

The existing Wiim home app was updated recently to be compatible with the WiiM Pro - the Mini and Pro share the same code base so use the same app.
You should submit your request re queuing to the feature request thread/forum.
 
I am glad to hear that the app will remain the same. I like the user interface and it works with my needs.

On a side note, are there sound quality improvement/ hardware advantages worth upgrading to the Pro 2 for users of the wiim mini that use it with an external DAC?
 
If I remember correctly, there was a number of posts in the "old" WiiM forum regarding the addition of Ethernet port to the WiiM Mini.
The PRO version solves that and more. Kudos to the WiiM team for actually listening to their customers!

Design and specifications of the PRO version are probably made to meet a certain budget, but I can't help but think there's an opportunity missed here: there's no USB-out and it seams the internal DAC is the same as in the Mini (so, not really a pretty good one...). These two things could have been addressed, probably for not a lot of money.

And I do hope that the optical socket on the PRO is of higher quality then on the Mini...

Congratulations team! The market has been ripe for a simple, versatile and *affordable* streamer like this for a while now. Can't wait to purchase one when you go live.

Any news on Australian delivery? Or can we just buy through amazon usa?

Can you give us a best guess on timing? My current solution is busted and i want to wait for this, but can wait so long.

Looking forward to seeing it for sale. I'll buy one as soon as you guys get the -- Gapless / skips to the next track / plays the same track on an album over and over -- fixed. Last night (11/18/22) I found my WiiM unusable for these causes.

Please let me turn off Gapless. I'm not running a dance club!
Out of sheer curiosity, can (and to what extent) can the analog output support headphones? (That feature would make it an ideal desktop player.)

Hi Jim, sorry to hear you have problem with the WiiM Mini. Can you please help send a feedback via the WiiM Home App so we can take a look at your issues immediately？
Please also let us know what exact problem you have with the gapless. Regarding the analog output, it can be used as the input to your headphones. Based on your headphone spec., please adjust its output voltage before use with the WiiM App. It has four output options: 2 Vrms, 1 Vrms, 800 mVrms and 500 mVrms.
