Great! Looking forward to getting it next Tuesday.

The new features will be available offline/locally on the ROSE device for music on internal SSD or only with registration/logon ??

Hm. Is this only update to Android /IOS version of Rose remote control? How it scans faster if there is no change in Rose OS? And how it reflects to File Manager as I have no File Manager on my phone, File Manager I can access only on Rose screen on my Rose 250A?

Does this version bring improvements for RS250A?

Wow, great enhancements so far.
Especially the enhanced databease scan functionality sounds great.

Is it possible to update from latest EA version to this stable version or is it needed to sign out from EA program on the device?

Dear Hifi Rose.
Do you plan to release a version of the entire complete Software package for the RS250A?

Thank you.

We took a long time to deploy this update, so there will be a lot of stabilization and feature additions.
The update will be distributed tomorrow.

Is this update available across the range, especially to older models?
Can I presume that older models will not receive anymore updates ie RS250? Is Rose turning into Sonos? Very poor if this is the case!!!

Am I supposed to be excited by this?

Thanks for the response, rightly so, yesterday I tried to connect the RS250A to the internet, it did not show the update, I wait a couple of days and try.

As always, thanks for the help.

Well, it’s Tuesday, it’s 8:40 p.m. in Korea and no update… At the same time, you didn’t specify which Tuesday…

Well…better check check double check before releasing

I have this feeling the update isn’t coming today
Maybe they found some last minute bugs

Are these the current versions for rs130 and app?

Are these the current versions for rs130 and app?

Why give an unfulfillable delivery date in the first place?! It only creates unnecessary pressure on HifiRose and disappointment to the customers.

Dear Hi-Fi Rose users

The release of the Rose OS Official Version, originally scheduled for Tuesday, November 5th, has been delayed due to the pending registration of the Rose Connect Premium App on the Google Play Store and Apple App Store.

Typically, store reviews are completed within 24 hours, allowing apps to be registered promptly. However, this review process has taken longer than expected, preventing us from meeting our promised release schedule.

We are closely monitoring the status of the review and will initiate the release as soon as approval is granted.

Once again, we apologize for not being able to adhere to the release schedule.
Going forward, we will ensure the review process starts earlier so that updates can be delivered at the promised time through thorough preparation.
