TouchPad

I can’t believe I bought this app in 2009. Great for controlling a home theater computer. Had a problem a couple years ago (forgetting the password if it couldn’t connect on the first try), let the developer know, and it was fixed immediately in the next update. My only request would be a super-extra dark grey-on-black mode that is nearly invisible in a dark room / theater. The red and black theme is super cool but still a little distracting to leave on all the time during movies. Thanks for a great app!

Super easy to connect and great response. No lag so far. Using my iPad, this is easier with better control than the wireless mouse and keyboard. I haven't tried all of the key extra control keys in the app, but the touchpad is great, catching and dragging items is easier than with my mouse. People, take your issues to support! Thanks for a great, free, app.

I love the app. My only qualm is that I think it’s a little bit of a missed opportunity not having a few buttons for things like Mute, or Sleep, for example. It looks like this aims to work as a remote, so these things would go a long way. Currently using Alfred to mute and sleep the Mac; it’d be nice not to need both apps to do such a small task.

Tools like this make it easier and easier to use an iPad for all the presentation, productivity and mockup needs a pro needs to bridge the workflow for iOS to Mac and back again.

Runs nativity on macOS. It finds the computer on the local network, asks for credentials, and lets your control it. It’s super useful at home but it is gold for IT support.
