United StatesRowmote Pro is the ultimate wireless remote, trackpad, and keyboard for Mac. 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.

Terrible update!
Everything worked wonderfully until this update! The keyboard is the biggest issue… I go to type on the Rowmote Pro app while working in Microsoft Word on my iMac, but what I type does not show up correctly on my computer. The text bar you have at the top of the Rowmote keyboard seems to take precedence over what I actually want to have show up on my computer and it’s not always what I type. When I hit delete so I can backspace, it deletes more than one letter at a time. if I want to hit “command” M to minimize my window, nothing works… It’s the same for any “command” function I try to do. This app was CRUCIAL to me being efficient as a quadriplegic and now it doesn’t work… WHY did you change it when it was working fine?! PLEASE go back to the previous version until you have all the bugs worked out!
United StatesA long awaited update for the iPhone
Finally a much needed update has arrived, especially for the new iPhones. Even though there is still an issue with fn functions not properly displaying in landscape mode. Hopefully a fix will come sooner then later.
United StatesSeems Okay, now!
Will have to get used to the new UI layout of this app. After many years of using this app, I miss the old UI layout which I still think was very good, but at least, this app is still back up and working with my old iMac! Thanks for the update and fix!
United StatesOhhhh yeah, copy paste!
Been a long time user, and fan of Rowmote. What puts it over the edge for me though, copy paste?! That said, I'm not sure how secure it is to use this over a network - but it's a daily part of my life for sure.

United StatesYears of happy use
This app never fails me. Just migrated to a new Mac Studio and this gem keeps shining. Thank you!
United StatesRe 4.2.4
I’ve been using rowmote for many years and it’s never worked quite as it should, I just updated to 4.2.4 and finally it’s working as it should… That is until I restarted my computer, at which point it’s back to its jerky movements old self… oh well maybe the next step date or fix it…. Regardless, still a great app…
