Among other things, the largest possible album cover preview is important to me, as the apps mentioned cannot offer that sufficiently. The new StreamMagic app is also going in a catastrophically wrong direction.

Well, there is always the old faithful Linn Kinsky app.
Edit: oops sorry, this no longer appears in the App store

Dare I mention, again, my favourite fidata Music app. And then the popular Lumin app.
All of these apps display large/fullscreen artwork in Landscape or Portrait mode, for the track playing in the play queue.

Well, in my experience the CA streamer (the StreamMagic 6 V1) crashes i.c.w. the Linn Kinsky app (has something to do with volume control???).
If Bubble Server is installed (openhome) it is possible to use Linn Kazoo or
Lumin but still with issues regarding volume control.
It is not possible to use the new StreamMagic app with early models CA streamers like the NP30, SM6 V1 and the SM6 V2.
I agree with the OP that fullscreen artwork is nice to have, not only Cambridge audio is going in a catastrophically wrong direction, also the new Linn app is designed by someone with apparently perfect sight.

I just tried the Fidata app and noticed this is the first app that is able to control the volume of the SM6 V1!!
Might be an alternative for the CA Connect app.
Haven't tested gapless yet, until now the only app capable making the SM6 play gapless was BubbleUpnP on Android.
