Touch the screen to show the pointer - which is controlled either by dragging your finger around the screen (easy) or by orientation (takes a little practice) - your choice. Requirements: Computer running Mac OS X 10.7 or higher, WiFi connection (on the same local network or by creating a computer-to-computer network), and PowerPoint or Keynote (choose the program on the back side of the App). Please note that this app cannot control an iPad Keynote presentation. A small Mac application, PointerServer, must be downloaded to your computer and started whenever Pointer is used. This program is available for free at: http://www.zentropysoftware.com/ZS/Pointer_files/PointerServer3.zip Please note that the presentation runs on your computer, not directly from the iPhone or iPad. Instead the iPhone/iPad controls the computer. A support e-mail address is listed at the support web site.

Please remember, if you have problems with the app or if you have a feature request, send this information to the support email address: Mirko.Paschke@gmx.de Story Unfortunately, it is not possible to automatically track Marvel Snap data on iOS. So I started by putting my deck stats into the notes app. But it lacked most stats data. I had only total cubes and matches count. But I wanted more. This is why I created this app. Now I can enter my deck stats fast and precise and I must not even calculate. I leave the tracker app open in the background, with the deck opened that I use in Snap. After the match I just swipe to the right on the bottom of the screen, to switch to the tracker app, just press the plus button, make a few taps and save. I love it. And I hope you will enjoy it too.
