It also lets me check to make sure that when my daughter assures me she turned her computer off, that she really did.” “Very simple and easy to setup. When I say simple I didn't have to set anything up. Just install the server and the app picked up my laptop straight away. All the buttons worked, it's amazing.

We have several wireless music senders dotted around the house also which feed off the desktop PC in the dining room.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

World Time Calc holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Off Remote Pro has 71 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 81% of Off Remote Pro's written reviews are positive against 67% of World Time Calc's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Off Remote Pro ships an update monthly, World Time Calc every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 23, 2026 respectively.
