Not bad

This app is Pritty cool I can start my computers from maccas lol :)

Does exactly what is says on the tin

I use it over my LAN only at the moment but, whenever I need to get the NAS up and running to access my movies, photos or whatever, a quick button press is all I need. No need to go into the loft to press the power button! I built my NAS ultra efficient to keep the costs down when always-on but, with this app, there is no need to keep it always-on.

Add VNC or Telnet to mix and you have the perfect remote management capability.

Awesome!

Works perfectly over 3G and wifi. Now I can let my computer sleep AND still use LogMeIn to gain remote access. Keep up the good work! I use a Mac Mini with Snow Leopard by the way.

Top notch

Great app - works perfectly on LAN or Internet. I would give it a 5 the second they allowed for remote shutdown/reboot/hibernate on Windows 7 machines.

Has never let me down

Bought this app about a year ago. Works perfectly fine. Not for people who don't know what WOL stands for.

Absolute Rubbish

Spent ages trying to get this to work and it simply would not wake any of the Macs on the network ... and if you have a new mini Mac it does not even recognise it !

Save your money and get this app a miss.

Best WOL on the app store!

Used to use iWol because it was one of the first ones on the app store to do wol but this app is much more configurable and easy to use. It works great.

Can't wait for version 2.0 coming out in november 2010 to support iOS4!

Doesn't always work

Only 2 stars because it doesn't always wake the computer and doesn't always succeed in putting it to sleep, either. This app should be only $0.99.

Does what it says on the tin

Does exactly what it says. Make sure you've got the correct ports open on your router, or set to DMZ.

Found my mac mini over the wifi network then I set it up over the Internet to wake and sleep on command. If you don't have a static ip with your broadband supplier make sure you use a service like dyndns.org

I use this in conjunction with "log me in", to wake and sleep my mac when I want to remote access it.

Does not work!

Wasted $1.99 AND my evening trying to get this to connect.

After spending a whole evening trying to get this to work, I gave up and found another application which ACTUALLY works!

Beware! Do not purchase!
