Description

Off Remote lets you turn off, lock, sleep, log off and restart a PC or Mac directly from your iDevice.
Forgot to turn off the office computer? No need to get up. Want to stop the kid's marathon computer sessions? Do it remotely.
The timer function lets you set Off to trigger up to 24 hours in the future so you can set a computer to automatically turn off after a task such as completing a download or upload or to automatically lock at a certain time to limit a child's screen time.
If you want to know whether the computers in your house are turned off - you can check from your iDevice.
If you use a computer to stream videos or audio to your living room, then you can turn it off when you are finished without getting out of the sofa.
If you forget to turn things off at night then you can turn them off from wherever you are in the house.
It's simple to use. It's very handy. It saves you the effort of walking to your computer!

“Off is a brilliant yet simple app that allows me to easily control the power state of all the PCs in my house. It also lets me check to make sure that when my daughter assures me she turned her computer off, that she really did.”
“Very simple and easy to setup. When I say simple I didn't have to set anything up. Just install the server and the app picked up my laptop straight away. All the buttons worked, it's amazing. No more having to get out if bed to turn the laptop off for the night.”

Doesn't work for me

inventionBoy10 on

United Kingdom

It doesn't work for me. I restarted both mobile and desktop app, and even went ion the connection tester. Nothing works.

Best app ever

sophie._a01 on

United Kingdom

Every time my brother wants to scream like a dying pig whist gaming, during the middle of the night, I simply turn his PC off. Thankyou to whoever made this.

Excellent

Amazing, works perfect

Ads make it unusable.

Fabric Eyes on

United Kingdom

The ads are a massive irritation and render the app unusable. The ads fully take over and then don't clear. The premium version is an absolute rip off for what it actually does.

WON is hidden

Qwerty pig on

United Kingdom

At first I thought this didn't have wake on lan but it turns out it does, it's hidden away. You have to input your computer details manually including the MAC address and make sure your bios is won enabled. It works for me but may not work for you which is why it's hidden away. Quote from the creator; "Off Remote does actually have Wake On Lan functionality. I don't advertise the fact as I don't want to deal with support queries where people potentially have to tweak the BIOS on their PC. Equally, I don't want to get bad reviews from users who expect the functionality, then find it difficult or impossible to get it working. If you're willing to accept that WOL might not work, then you can enable it fairly simply. Just add your computer manually from the settings page (this requires you to know what an IP address is). In future, when your computer isn't on, then you can tap on the blue arrow and access the WOL functions. When you set up the saved remote, you should make sure that your computer _is_ on with the Off Remote helper running. This will (probably) allow Off Remote to grab the mac address of your computer which makes the setup somewhat easier".

Frustrating

You can set the timer by using normal sized fingers or thns. The icon is so small you have to use your fingernail, frustrating.

Not working with iOS 7

Love the idea, but can't get it to work

Great convenience!

Lukeyboy7 on

United Kingdom

This app has been great when shutting everything off for the night. You can simply use your device as a WiFi remote and control all the PCs in your house with simple commands like: hibernate, sleep and power off, amongst others. Great!
