Awesome

Setup is a bit obtuse, which explains the negative reviews, but the app and it's OS X companion are a powerful combination. What I'd really love to see is VPN functionality which would allow remote controlling of Macs from across the internet vs just Bonjour.

Volume does not work

When you click on the system volume is does nothing to turn down the volume.

Works great

Connected right away, found some useful workflows — all great. Works as advertised.
To the folks yelling "can't connect": Just Read The Instructions (c)

Can't connect

Won't connect automatically nor directly. I'd wait to buy

Waste of $$$

Very difficult to pair, and after all very much useless iOS application.

I will ask for refund.

DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY

Doesn’t work for me either , i’d waste 4$ for filling wi-fi animation with ugly purple background … Alfred 2 said waiting for Alfred remote and Alfred Remote filling wi-fi shape, nothing happened after all , even i couldn’t connect directly… in past i used apps like this called LK Bridge and never had a problem for syncing mac application (Ableton live) with LK (iphone app) and using ableton remotly but Alfred is so stupid!!!!! i searched for soluotion and found nothing useful…

PEOPLE!!!!! DO NOT BUY THIS S***

Amazing App

Great app worked just how i wanted, just before i leave the house a can hit the lock button to make sure my mac is Secure :) All this app needs now is a built in mouse and it would be prefect!

Won’t Connect

Doesn’t work, on the same network, won’t connect, waster of time, don’t bother.

Turn phone into a remote control for your Mac

It takes some investment into the desktop app to really see the power of this app. Anything that can be automated with Automator,scripts, or Alfred workflows can be triggered remotely from your phone.

Got excited about it, never used it

It does what it promises, but honestly I never ended up using it. It's faster and less jarring to do a few extra key presses than reach for your phone or iPad. I'm going to knock it down for not actually being useful. I wish there was a free version I could have tried before dropping $4.99 on it...
