Currently only raw text protocol is supported. Every button on the currently active layout is configured to send a specific text. Any app or device capable of responding to raw text messages and sent over TCP can be controlled with 24U Net Remote. You can control any number of remote apps or devices, but only one at a time. When you open a layout, Net Remote immediately connects to the remote host so you can start controlling it. Net Remote uses so called layouts to know what to display on the screen and where to respond to your taps. You can download several remote control layouts for free and others are available via inApp purchases. You can also upload custom layouts via iTunes file sharing and unlock communication for them.

Show Browser keeps what you do on your own iPhone. There is no account to create and nothing to sign in to. Your history, bookmarks, downloads and per-site permissions live on this device and are never uploaded anywhere. The app sends nothing about you to us: there is no analytics library inside it, no crash reporter, no advertising, and nothing watching how you use it. WHAT YOU GET • Private tabs that keep no history, no cache and no site storage, and are never written to disk — not even when the system closes the app. • Your tabs come back. Reopen the app and the session is where you left it. Private tabs are the deliberate exception: those do not return. • Add your own shortcuts to the new tab page. Long press to remove one. • HTTPS first, with a full-screen warning when a site cannot do it — not a small icon that is easy to scroll past. • A certificate warning that never quietly accepts on your behalf. • Camera, microphone and location decided per site, reviewable and revocable. • Clear browsing data by time range. • Reader mode, find in page, and request the desktop version of a site. • Report an objectionable page from the menu; it reaches us directly. • Block any site from the menu, and manage the list in Settings. PERMISSIONS Camera, microphone and location are requested only when a site you are on asks for them, and only after you have allowed that site. The app itself never uses them. WORTH KNOWING BEFORE YOU DOWNLOAD Show Browser renders pages with Apple's WKWebView, as the App Store Review Guidelines require of every iOS browser. Pages therefore look and behave as they do in Safari. What differs is everything around the page: how tabs are managed, how security is surfaced, and the fact that nothing leaves your device. Show Browser is made by Sage. https://showbrowser.sage.show
