All runs perfectly (on Wi-Fi) until I shut down via interface on phone. Coming back to it the next day I cannot restart - ie I cannot ‘reach’ the pi via moode.local etc. I also cannot see a local hotspot produced by the pi/ moode. The red light shows on the pi but there is no green light activity at all. Unplugging power and reconnecting doesn’t change anything. HOWEVER, if I unplug it and take it to the router reconnect to power AND Ethernet it restarts perfectly. Confusingly I can then disconnect and return to audio system and it works perfectly again via Wi-Fi. 

I could of course just leave it permanently on. But in turn that leaves a lot of LEDs on in connected devices! But it does work with no problems if I do. 

Set up is an RPi4 running latest moode. Output is via a topping d10 DAC. I have a hard drive attached directly to the pi holding a music library. And a CD drive via a powered USB hub. 

Any suggestions gratefully received.

If you use the 'shutdown' command from the MoOde interface on your computer, tablet or phone the Pi will... shutdown. You will need to run manually the power cycle on the RPi in order to get remote access to the Rpi via the computer, tablet or phone.

As @CallMeMike mentioned Shutdown turns the Pi off and it has to be power cycled back on.

When it powers back up it can take several minutes before AP mode (local hotspot) starts and the name becomes visible in the list of WiFi networks on your phone.

There is a System Config setting named "IP add timeout". Try setting it to 10 secs. AP mode will come up faster.

Thank you. 
I thought I would achieve that by disconnecting power and reconnecting. But that doesn’t seem to do the trick. Is there another procedure I’m missing?
Apologies - it is probably really obvious.
