Rowmote Pro: Remote Control for Mac and Apple TV 1G/2G Screenshots

Description

Rowmote Pro is the ultimate wireless remote, trackpad, and keyboard. A gorgeous universal app for iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad, with everything from a multitouch trackpad to full extended keyboard support, and with no-configuration control of dozens of the best Mac applications, it is a must-have for any home media center or presentation!

* Rated "Excellent" and one of just 400 apps featured in the WIRED App Guide 2011 *

You love the remote control which came with your Mac - so simple yet elegant, with easy control of Front Row, iTunes, Quicktime, DVD Player, Keynote, and more.

Or, your Mac didnt come with a remote control or doesnt even have an infrared port. The Apple Remote would cost a significant amount. Add ANOTHER hit to your wallet for a wireless control like a keyboard, mouse, or the Apple Magic Trackpad!

You carry your iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad wherever you go so why should you carry a second device just to control your computer? Furthermore, why should you need line-of-sight to do so?

Enter Rowmote Pro! Rowmote Pro is like your Macs remote control, but over the wireless network and even better! Trackpad and keyboard give you complete control over your computer, and you can control, launch, and quit apps, toggle the iTunes Visualizer, and more without ever having to squint at your screen. Rowmote is Mac-like from the ground up.

Customer Reviews

Really can't think of anything better for this app (5 stars)
This remote app is by far the most stable and useful one yet. I was thinking of purchasing a Bluetooth keyboard remote with a touch pad for much more then the cost of this app. I'm so glad I didn't because this does so much more then the keyboard ever could have. Plus I can just grab my phone if I don't have my iPad and do what I need to do. One thing I have really began to like is the option to put my computer to sleep if I forgot to when u
