Can't get ipad to control Tidal on Mini

Basically, that's it.   All blue tooth is on.....Tidal and Mini. (However, Mini doesn't "see" ipad in blue tooth page). Stupid question but, is this why? Does Tidal even allow ipads to control Tidal on desktop systems? 
It HAS to work..........right?

Thanks to all who replied.
If I use Chrome Remote Desktop, is the music going FROM the ipad wirelessly to the Mini? Or is the ipad controlling the music FROM the Mini? I hope it's the later.

Meaning, am I just using the ipad as a remote control?  If I'm paying $20 a month for lossless quality, I don't want it to go  wirelessly from my ipad to the computer.

What is "the Mini"? Can you be more clear? If it is the Aries Mini just download the DS Lightning app onto your ipad and you can use it to stream Tidal. And yes the ipad is just a remote control.

LOL. When I responded I thought he meant Mac Mini. Lesson learned.

I think your question should have been the first question.

devilboy, you use the Ipad as a remote control and you control everything on the mini.  The music will be from your Tidal in the Mini.  It is essentially like your IPad is a mouse and keyboard for your mini.
