Stopped working over vpn

I’m not sure exactly when it started but I used to be able to send shut down and restart commands remotely while connected over a VPN. That has stopped working. Everything works fine when connected to my local network but everything stopped working over the VPN connection and nothing changed with the VPN connection or settings on my home PC.

Great app!

Works great for me! Have no issues with any of the functions and appreciate the companion app for additional functionality.

One nitpick is when using widgets: I’d like a confirmation dialogue because it’s easy to click on something and accidentally fire off a command.

Perfect

Works exceptionally well, and worth paying the premium to aid in further development :)

WAS a great app

This app used to be amazing. So convenient to be able to put my computer to sleep or wake it up from my phone. But this most recent update literally made the app useless. You can’t use any of the features (that I PAID to be able to use) that were previously available. Please revert this update or make these features available again!! 🙏🏽🙏🏽

Great for iOS shortcuts

I rarely leave reviews on apps. The additional $5.99 is extremely worth it. I’m not sure if it’s absolutely necessary for Shortcuts but being able to say “Hey Siri, turn on computer” is extremely useful. It’s a small quality of life improvement and worth it in my opinion. Highly recommend.
