Just received the rose RS 250a. What an incredible device, but the software is rather buggy and not very intuitive. I was extremely disappointed that Tidal connect was missing. For the sake of your brand, I really hope you support this soon. It is a much needed feature. I have multiple devices I stream to, and having one app for them all makes it much easier to deal with. Tidal Connect is a must.
Honestly, not worth buying Rose products anymore if they won't add Tidal Connect. Matrix Audio is supporting that in the their new streamers, so as anyone else releasing new products these days. Not everyone wants to run Roon and all that and Rose's app is buggy as hell and looks awfull if I may say so. They should just put all their developers onto having Tidal Connect, instead of investing into that silly Rose platform.
Hello, yesterday I bought RS150B. Not connect yet I wait on USB cable. On box are icons: TIDAL, roon Ready, Spotify, Bugs, qoubuz. You tell that I not use Tidal on my new streamer ? I bought Rose because I like to use Tidal on first place! I am not hifi expert but if I see support icons on box I things that will work well ...

I'm not saying it does not work, but if your main music listening is via Tidal, then I'd advice to get rid off Rose (return it while you can) and buy something else - like the new Matrix Audio streamer, which is the same price and has Tidal Connect and all that. Rose for whatever the reason insists on using internally developed ecosystem including their Tidal version. In short words - it is unusable, has many bugs and the user interface is a one big joke. So if you are not ready then to dive into Roon, in order to enjoy your expensive streamer (and spend a lot more cash on Roon, server and all that), then Rose is completely not worth it - just go buy something else instead of relying on promises from Rose of future Tidal connect.
Tidal stand alone app on the RS150b is completely frustrating. Really needs the Tidal connect option as well so that I can use all of my setting and list on my phone. The stand alone app just doesn't have the same history therefore there is a lot lost in the experience.
Are there any updates to include Tidal Connect soon? I much prefer using the standalone Tidal App over Rose Connect.
