Customer Reviews

Version 3.1.530 update (4 stars)
I chose iPod over iPad because I can't put an iPad in my pocket. Parallels Mac/Windows software is top shelf, so I made the assumption Mobile would be the same, so I sprung for the five bucks.

When I first tried this ap, I only gave it 1 star. the interface for the iPhone/iPod was horrible.

The developers seem to be listening to the feedback because there's either a new selection feature, or the last version wasn't wor

Great but... (3 stars)
The new update makes scrolling a pain.

Decent offering but lacks many details (3 stars)
It's adequate for casual but for serious work with your remote Mac, there are several things lacking:

* Can't trigger the Dock if it automatically hides.

* Can't do cmd-tab (app switching) from a Bluetooth keyboard.

* Can't trigger the on-screen augmented keyboard when using Bluetooth keyboards (therefore can't get to those special keys goodies).

* Can't quickly switch to another desktop space.
