The App does not rotate

The app just works in portrait, but i want to use it in landscape and it doesnt rotate. iOS 6 iPad 3

Great!

What a great app! If you have your pc or Mac connected to your Tv this is a absolute must have! Make sure you install the small program on the computer side and it's a flawless working app.

Great, but please update!

A retina display update would be greatly appreciated!!! Just got this app and it's terrific!

Solved a big problem

I used to have to get up and walk over to my keyboard to type something in because my laptop is hooked up to my big screen tv and now i can do it from the other side of my house

A Sm-o-o-oth One!

I cannot figure how to drag and drop. Scrolls fine, but cannot find the "programmable button". Cannot select and drag as with a dedicated touchpad - tried two fingers but then arrow starts jumping all over the place. This needs to be seriously addressed. HOWEVER, over all WFTPHD is the smoothest, workingest, iPad added function I've tried.

On FIRST START one should be able to select computer (or add IP address BEFORE WFTPHD starts trying to select the first one it "sees") otherwise the little searching wait wheel spins endlessly until it FINALLY decides to give user the option of the error message. ALSO it would be EXCELLENT to have the alternative of the Apple keyboard without the messy Windoze stuff hogging all that space yet still making the keypads smaller and harder to KB with. I do like having the arrow keys and the modifier keys. The split keyboard just confuses me.

Thanks for a great App. 4 stars for now..... 10 stars with above improvements!

Works perfectly

I use a Mac Mini (with OS X Lion) as an HTPC, and this app let's me control it just as a Magic Trackpad would. It recognizes gestures (although it also triggers the iPad-specific gesture too, no big deal), but also has a full keyboard that can be used. Neat trick.

I highly recommend this app, especially since similar apps are $5 - $20 and don't look as nice. It's also a dead simple setup (you do need to run a free program on whatever computer you're wanting to control, but it's a tiny file and doesn't eat system resources).

There's also a free version, so try it, make sure it works, and then "splurge" the $1 on the full version to be rewarded with no ads, power and volume control and a few other nifty features.

Again, I can't recommend this app enough and I use it daily.

High Hopes dashed

Hello,
I tried this app out to see if I could use my ipad to control a G3 mac mini that was running leopard. When I downloaded the receiver part of this app on the mini the launch said it was not supported with this architechure. I got now where with emailing the support after a week. Thumbs down and hopefully I can get $ back.

Wowwwwww

I love this app it does everything that I need and more I cannot believe it's only 1.99 dls ....I paid 150 dls for the logitech wireless keyboard which I'm extremely happy....good job guys

Great app

Great app, works as advertised. It's replaced my wireless keyboard and mouse when my laptop is connected to the tv

Good stuff

crap crap do not buy

item never down loaded and i was charged beware of this product do not be tricked its crap

Bad customer support

Works quite well but could find no product documentation on the web site. New to tablet computing, and not finding any doc on the web site, I sent a frustrated email asking how to drag and drop. The response was basically, there's no doc because everyone knows how to drag and drop, look it up on google.
Four stars, minus two for bad customer service. And to drag and drop, for those who don't know, double-tap the object you want to drag but don't release the second tap, then drag.

You have to buy it!

This app is really incredible, everyone should have it. I've just been using it for some hours but will never change.
Keep on the good work!

Great app

Great app if you are looking at the computer while using, put for a presentation it needs to have the screen on the iPad. It also need a landscape view and instead of tap combinations have mouse buttons.

Good app

Good app, but save your money and get the free version.

I would love to see a landscape mode.

The magnifying glass magnifies images on the remote computer not the iPad.

The volume control is nice but the implementation is a bit frustrating. There is no tap and hold feature so the volume keeps increasing. This necessitates tapping the button 25ish times to get from the lowest to highest volume and vice versa. A slider control would have been much better.

Also, it would be nice to optionally have the default keyboard for bigger keys (although the full keyboard is nice in some cases).

Finally a box that shows what you are typing on the ipad would be nice. It is frustrating to look between the iPad and computer monitor all the time to check for typos.

Finally I would prefer three finger clicks for click and drag function rather than the double single finger click which is a bit hard to get to work.

Works

This app works with my iPad, but lack of landscape orientation, and keyboard layout make it cumbersome.

Awesome!

The application works great! I love messing with my friends when they are on the computer. Pretty sweet app!!
