Topic: Remote App- "Waiting for connection" IPhone 16- VDJ2025- problem
I have just installed the Remote app on Iphone 16 plus IOS 18.2 (December 22, 2024).
I cannot connect to VDJ V2025-m b8472 on Mac Sequoia 15.2
Remote is activated in VDJ - firewalls and blockers are turned off
The app only shows the message: Waiting for VDJ connection...
IP address matches VDJ

Any ideas ?

Which did you start first - VDJ or the app? Try the other way around.
 
Tried all scenarios - no luck
 
Are you able to start a mobile hotspot on your phone? If so, what happens if you connect your main VirtualDJ machine and your iPad to the phone's hotspot and try the connection then?
 
Same problem with Hot Spot via iPhone "Waiting for connection"

What are you paying 10€ for if the app doesn't work??

There is also no indication that it won't work with the current versions on Mac or iPhone - that is very annoying
 
I'm able to connect successfully to my MacBook from the Controllers tab (it's not an automatic process initially, you have to explicitly connect it the first time).

I'm running the latest Remote version on Android and latest VirtualDJ EA version 2025-m b 8490 on MacOS Sonoma at the time of this writing on my home network and phone hotspot (also Android). It worked with the latest stable version, b8472 as well.
 
Thank you very much - that was the right tip.

I didn't know that you had to select the remote separately in the controller menu - now it works.
