Innuos Zenith MK3/ Roon

I have an Innous Zenith MK3 connected to a Mearson DAC and am using a Hegel H160 as an Amp.  I don't care for the Ipeng app.  I am interest in using roon with this system.  I downloaded the roon App. 14 day trial onto my Computer.  Roon works fine with the Computer.  I would like to use roon with the Innuos.  Roon does not seem to recognize the device even after installing the Roon App. onto the IPad and following all of the instructions.  Does this mean the Innuos is not compatible?  Do I  need to purchase the Roon Nucleus + to get it to work with my current setup?  If so how does the Nucleus integrate into my system?

I use Roon for my Zen Mk 3 and my PC without issue- no need for a Nucleus.
I have no experience with anything MAC, unfortunately. Though I did have issues using Google Chrome when trying to set up the Roon/Innuos.
I had to use MS Edge to get it to connect. I think I added some extensions that interfered with Roon. In any case, I think you might need to examine whether your IPad  has any configuration issues that might cause it not to work properly.- 
Better yet, either Google for the issue, or look at the Innuos forum.

If you don't like iPeng, why don't you try the new Innuos 2.0 operating system on your Innuos Zenith? The software upgrade is free and the sound quality exceeds what can be obtained using Roon.

Try rebooting the computer and/or powering off and on the DAC.  I am also on my trial and I had the same problem with my DAC on Friday.  This worked for me.

Thank you all for your responses. Sdl492 U are correct Innous Sense is much better than Ipeng.  On first listen I think I like it better than Roon and it is free.  Will spend some more time listening before making a final decision.  Thxs.
