NEW FEATURES
• [EARLY PREVIEW]: HEOS multi-room grouping. Dedicated Groups screen with Group All, multi-select, per-player Leave. Auto-discovers every Denon/Marantz AVR + HEOS speaker on your network.
• HEOS Favorites. Long-press any track or station to pin it to your HEOS account favorites.
• "Launch HEOS app" buttons in Dashboard and Music Browser. One tap into the official HEOS app for any service we don't fully support.
• Backup & Restore. Full export/import of every receiver, source order, theme, scale, volume, explanation card state, and HEOS caches. Save to device or share.
• Smart broken-service detection. At device-add we probe each music service and remember which are firmware-broken on this receiver, persisting across phone reboot.

MEDIA BROWSER REBUILD
• Pinned scrollable breadcrumb at every folder level
• Inline search bar everywhere
• Artwork grid + list/grid toggle
• Long-press queue actions: Play Now, Play Next, Add to Queue, Add to Favorites
• Service-identity logo in the AppBar
• Disk-cached service icons survive app kill / phone reboot

SETTINGS

• "Test & Save" Add Receiver flow auto-saves on green test
• AVR identity gate refuses to save non-Denon/Marantz devices
• Collapsible explanation cards everywhere with master on/off
• "Show explanation cards" toggle in Settings → Help

FIXES

Join us on Discrord to discuss new features!!
In this release:
- Cleaner zone cards: compact power toggle in the header (no more giant round button), volume readout now matches your AVR's relative-dB or absolute scale just like the main dashboard.
- Per-zone volume presets: each zone (Z2, Z3) now has its own customizable preset row, persisted across app restarts.
- Volume preset row redesign on the main dashboard too: 8 positions, drag any saved preset to the spot you want, no more left-cluster on tablet.
- Multi-AVR switcher in the title bar: tap your active AVR's name to flip between configured receivers instantly.
- Speaker layout decoder fixed: 5.1.2 / 7.1.4 / dual-subwoofer setups now display correctly. Previously some Atmos receivers showed wrong bed/height counts.
- S-series chassis (S540H, S660H, S760H, S860H, S960H): IMAX and AuroMatic UI no longer appears for receivers that don't actually support those features.
- Fixed two crash classes (tone control screen + zone reconnect race).
- Save into all 8 volume preset positions on dashboard + every zone
- New Audio Restore dashboard card (Off / Low / Med / High)
- Settings toggle to flip which volume scale (dB vs VOLUME) is the big primary readout
- Hidden sources from your AVR's setup menu now properly hidden in the app
- Quick / Smart Select buttons read your user-configured names on more chassis (X3700H, X4500H, AV7705)
- Sources card now collapses into a bottom sheet, matching the Sound Mode card
- Hidden sources stay hidden on Cinema 30 / A10H across the periodic poll cycle
- Center Level Adjust syncs from the receiver, Denon Remote App, front panel, or voice on legacy chassis (X4500H-era)
- Settings tab back arrow returns you to the dashboard
- Bug fixes and stability improvements.

What's new in v2.13.0:

NEW: Drag-and-drop source-tile reordering on the dashboard. Long-press any source, drag to reorder, tap Done. Order saves per-receiver.

NEW: Manual A/V audio-delay slider for Denon and Marantz. System Controls → AUDIO DELAY. 0–500 ms range with ±1 ms nudge buttons.

FIXED: Sources hidden in the AVR's setup menu now actually disappear from the app. Volume presets honor the receiver's relative-dB scale when you have your front panel in that mode. Surround → Sound Mode rename on the dashboard.

POLISHED: Tile sizes scale to screen width: iPad users get tighter, more compact grids instead of stretched-out tiles. Pruned redundant success toasts (button highlights already showed the state).

Note: Join Discord for feedback as some fixes could not be verified as they require different models etc. I attempted to implement all feedback received and require confirmation and logs if still not solved. Discord is ideal for feedback:
• Denon Quick Select buttons fixed
• Smart Select vs Quick Select labels per brand
• Custom QS/SS slot names from your receiver
• Volume display matches AVR's front panel (relative dB mode supported)
• Long-press a QS/SS button to save current state
• Hidden inputs from receiver setup menu now respected
• All Zone Stereo toggle + sub count accuracy on flagship chassis
• Per-device presets (separate for each AVR you connect)

What's fixed in 2.9.8:
IP Address field can now be typed on non-English iOS locales (fix for French / German / Spanish users on iOS)
Defensive input handling - commas auto-convert to periods for paste safety
