What I really want is to be able to store and play music off the device, not just stream music. Will this device do that for me?

YES and you can add additional memory to store even more songs or video for on the go with an SDcard!

absolutely. its very fast and smooth. however, the biggest downfall is android kitkat on it. read up on the downfalls and workarounds of kitkat. other than that, its a heck of a buy and well woth the investment.

Yes granted you have a larger size mini sd card that can support large amounts of music but there is about 15 gb of hard drive space on device to start.

Unit comes with 16GB of storage and has capability for more by using a micro-SDHC card.

This device does not require an SD card to work, you simply connect it to a bluetooth capable device, and from there you can play music etc.

Heck ya it will! I use mine regularly and it is loaded with songs. A USB key/flashdrive with songs is the quickest way to get your music on the go :-)

Hi Richard,This device can play back music in several modes: random, sequential, repeat (single song, or songs in a folder), into (play a short time for each) etc. These options are preset and you can chose one of them from the menu. Hopefully, it answers your question.Good luck,Hans

I was able to use the auxiliary port to play my android phone. Regarding the USB port, I picked up a cheap mp3 player download my music and plugged it in without a problem. Hope this helps a little. Stan

It can play through blue tooth from your phone, if you want to put your music onto a separate micro SD you can play from it instead of using your phone. I would not take the SD out of your phone to use.

You should be able to listen to radio or podcasts or from your music library. I have an android and an iPhone and both work well with this device. I hope this helps.

The only way that could work would be is the streaming device just sends the mp3 etc. usb input or aux input. But this is just a amplifier so unless the streamer can be first setup on a computer. Then plug into usb or aux and if the music is there playing it would work. The usb handles a few formats of music.

I have a Galaxy S3, and have been wondering the same thing. I've searched a lot for the same info. As far as I know there aren't any units that are android friendly. Most are compatible with Iphone. You should still be able to stream music, or play music from the phone through the unit using an aux or usb connection. I just don't think it will show any artist info on screen.

No you can't.. You can only stream music via Bluetooth or connected via an auxiliary cord..

Yes you can, you can stream video, and music from this drive to your device

I'm no tech wizard. But if you can place a file on a hard drive , be it music, video or data you can access it through your chosen tool tablet etc and play it. It's just a hard drive with a router built in. So effectively it is a cloud of sorts. Just have to put music files on there in a compatible format for your tablet to access and play them.

The only way to play your music would be with a AUX connection. USB will not work with iPhone or iPod. I wasn't happy about it.

yeah, that's how I have mine set up. I use it for audio only, so I cannot comment on the video. but it allows me to stream my google play music from my tablet into a 2 channel input on my receiver (zone 2). works well for that.

why not? as long as your Android device can receive external music using BT port.

This is android device so it supports everything that android phones support. But I doubt it can provide high quality sound from streaming source.

I stream music stored on my external HD through the hub to my iPad. Hope this helps.
