Can You stream music from a NAS to an iPad?
*Airplay1 enabled speakers do not have multiple device support. If like me you want to stream your music from a NAS this has to be the best player for the iPad. Being able to then stream out to both Apple TV and to Chrome Audio has made this a fantastic app. Well layer out and reliable with just about every feature I can think of.
How can I stream music to multiple devices?
Stream your Music to your Alexa device via bluetooth. Cast your Music to Chromecast devices including multi-room. If you have more than one Airplay2* or Chromecast device, you can stream your music to multiple devices around the house.

How do I connect headphones to my iPad with Bluetooth?

Can you use DS audio on an iPad?
your NAS vendor will have the software….mine is synology, and they offer a free app called DS Audio for iPad, iPod, etc. Likely all NAS makers have solved this problem, or there are other third party apps. for synology, you have to install DS Audio on the iPad, and Audio station on the NAS….both are from synology.
