I am using the macOS app so that I can get lossless streaming but I can’t figur out how to stream from the app to my receiver. Airplay doesn’t support lossless and there is no chromecasting ability in the mac app (even though the mobile app seems to have that capability). What are my options?

Hi there, you will have to connect it with a cable that transfers lossless files. That is the only option I am afraid.

Chromecast is coming soon to the Desktop app though 😉

Hi there, yes, Flac is still not supported by our mobile apps. But hopefully in the future 🙂

my understanding is that FLAC now is supported on IOS mobile app, but chromecast is still not an option on the desktop app. Is this correct?

Hi, at the moment, Flac quality (HiFi) is only supported on desktop app and some sound systems, nowhere else 😉

Hi there @Andrew.Chick

We were expecting to have most of it done by the end of this year, but it's fair to say the work will continue in January. Hopefully at that time, we'll have more updates to give about this. Thank you for your support and understanding.

Still no chromecast support on desktop app (mac). Every single other music player (save Apple, for branding reasons) has this. I’m not an engineer, but it can’t be all that difficult. What’s more, you guys advertise that IS available. What’s up? I’m on a trial membership, but this doesn’t make me want to stick around.
