Thanks @Slak_Jaw for the quick reply. I do wonder about a refund. It crashed at a gig, super embarrassing. What’s your policy on that?

Like all software companies I would imagine. Every software company there is risk of crashes. Seems to be more often though with Djay Pro. I haven’t had a crash yet, not whilst playing live anyway. I did have crashes whilst midi mapping though. Which were investigated. It’s the risk we take. Crashes in ideal world shouldn’t happen but sometimes they do. Not easy and frustrating but that’s software for you.
So what’s your point or contribution to this thread? We are looking for a solution to specific problems that can be addressed.
My point and contribution is what’s called an opinion and in the spirit of free speech. One of which is very much allowed on this forum, to even try to question someone’s opinion is rather controlling of you. That being said, the engineers I am sure will get to grips with this and sort it as they always do. Stability does need to be their focus right now.

I’ve been using Djay for about four years now, and I’ve experienced over 15 gig crashes, maybe even more. At first, I thought it might be because of my old iPad, so I upgraded to a new iPad Pro. I also switched between different controllers because I kept feeling like the sound quality wasn’t great—and I still feel that way. Often, it doesn’t matter too much because the crowd is usually drunk, but it still bothers me.
At least the crashes stopped over the past year. I think the software is fantastic—I love the touch experience with the iPad, it’s just awesome! But I feel like I’m reaching my limit. I need to have confidence that the software will work reliably. The sound quality needs to be excellent. This is crucial and should always be prioritized!
I’m paying for this, I’m not a beta tester. I’ve submitted countless bug reports, logs, and who knows what else. Yet, I keep feeling like I’m constantly ending up beta testing. That’s just not acceptable. Offer a beta version for free, fix the bugs beforehand, and only release updates when you’re sure it’s at least stable!
The number of crashes I can generate right now is ridiculous. The software clearly hasn’t been tested enough. And now it’s taking forever to fix the issues—I can only assume it’s because it’s summer and people are on vacation. Otherwise, please re-release the last stable version so we can at least keep playing safely.
Honestly, I’m frustrated. I love Djay, and I feel like I’m being forced to leave it behind. I’m already the odd one out for not using the provided CDJs, and it’s only justified if what I’m offering actually works. Sadly, right now, it doesn’t and honestly we need a promise by Algoriddim, this will be different in the future. Cause the past has shown otherwise.

Some great advice here from @Slak_Jaw from a previous post regarding problems like this and how to avoid them in future.
I’ll certainly be borrowing this workflow.
Hear your frustration. Great work on reporting crashes and keeping Algoriddim to account on them. I agree with you there has been more than usual crashes recently. I’ve been using djay pro since 2014. More so as number one software since last year. Since multitude of new features, which are amazing, there has been more crashes and bugs bring reported. Which isn’t great. If I were Algoriddim right now I would only really focus on reliability for next release or two. Get it really stable and then look at enhancing. Just my two cents, I have no inside knowledge or anything but I know they do look at these forums to get a gist of what we’re all experiencing and feeling.

I use the auto mix at the beginning of the night if quiet , last night I was in normal 2 deck screen mode but with auto mix on , when dragging and dragging and dropping new tracks ( whilst playing songs ) into the auto mix queue from tidal the app sometime crashes. This happened at least 3-4 time so gave up in the end as it was far to unstable.
Is there a way to send the crash logs ? I can’t seem to see any other reports of this bug, but certainly was there last night.
Thanks 
Pretty sure this has to do with all the other crashes happening rn.
Just check this out:

Hi @Fresh27, I sent you a DM looking for some additional info. Can you please check and respond via DM? Thanks!
What is the solution to this problem? Slak_Jaw It is taking too long ?!. The software is very good, but even using the best application is pointless when it crashes all the time.What’s the point of updating for the worse, I don’t understand it? I’m not sure it was the right decision to pay for this product…

Hello everyone, engineering has identified the issue and it should be addressed in the 5.2.4 update which is currently in private beta testing. We hope to have this ready for public release soon, but don’t have an official release date yet. Thanks!
