Does its job

It works perfectly. I’d love a way to add a timed shutdown or turn on (shutdown/turn on after 2 hours) for example

Broken scan on iOS 27

I can control my PC with the app if I manually set it up, but it will not fine with the scan function, even with the companion app on the PC. Scan worked just fine in iOS 26.
