Power on, shut down, change volume or brightness — all from your iPhone. NEW: From Anywhere in the World — Control your powered-on computer over the internet: status, shutdown, sleep, lock and volume — no VPN, no port forwarding, no setup — Wake a powered-off PC remotely: a second powered-on computer with the Agent wakes it from inside your home network — End-to-end encrypted: commands are sealed on your iPhone and can be opened only by your computer Setup in 10 Seconds Install the free Agent on your computer, open the app — it finds your PC on the network automatically.
