Rowmote - Reviews, Revenue and Downloads - Apple App Store

Description

Rowmote lets you seamlessly control audio, video, and presentation applications on your Mac from your iOS device.

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 didn’t come with a remote control or doesn’t even have an infrared port. Buying a remote control, from Apple or a third party, would carry a significant cost!

You carry your iPhone or iPod Touch 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! Rowmote is like your Mac’s remote control, but over the wireless network and even better! By tapping the Apps button, you get bonus abilities, switching between controlled programs, toggling the iTunes Visualizer, and more. Rowmote will even wake sleeping Macs.

- Control your Mac over a wireless network. No line of sight necessary.

- SWITCH: Access your Mac’s Dock, launching & switch between all controllable applications on the Mac, toggle the iTunes visualizer, and more. Order & display customizable.

- Click-and-hold works just like on the physical remote in applications; for example, holding the right button fast-forwards, while a single click is ‘next’. This is a feature no other iPhone remote control I know of does properly!

- Pause the music or video automatically when you answer a call on your iPhone
- Proximity sensor support to automatically turn the screen off if the device is face-down
- Secure authentication

REQUIREMENTS

• Mac OS X 10.4.0 or later.
• Mac: The free Rowmote Helper program must be running on the Mac to be controlled. Download at www.rowmote.com. Some features require later versions of Mac OS X.

Rowmote is a steal! Couple it with Apple’s free Remote app to turn your iPhone or iPod Touch into the ultimate controller for home stereo, mobile presentation, or casual video viewing.

Minimal functionality

The old row more would act as a mouse and keyboard. This app will only control functions of already installed programmes. Basically it’s play and pause for videos and that’s it.

Pretty good

Seems all good. I mostly use it as a remote for Plex. Works very well for that.

Easy to use, very useful

Highly recommended if use keyboard much. App well set up and intuitive use

Very useful I use it with ATV

Handy app for controlling ATV with iPhone or ipad

Essential App

Brilliant app! The best remote on the App Store, hands down. Works flawlessly. Fun and easy to use. Well laid out Ui. Compatible with lots of apps. A must have App if you want to remote control your computer.

Worthwhile

Simple and effective

Read the fine print!

After downloading to use my iPhone as a remote for Apple TV I find it doesn't work with latest Apple TV and involves hacking into your Apple TV not recommended!

No apple tv3

Bought this to control Apple TV. Only the fine print found after purchasing indicates no good for ATV3.

Great app

My first ever review of an app, and I've had many. 5stars. Probably the most useful app I have owned. Fully recommended

Best for Mac

Our family owns multiple apple computers, each with iPhones or iPods. When searching for the ultimate Mac remote we quickly discovered that Rowmote offered the best functionality for all Mac applications. We mostly use it as a Mac TV remote for watching movies. Very simple to operate, 100% reliable and one of our all time favorite applications. 10/10.
