About

PresentSync

Read full description

PresentSync turns your iPhone or iPad into a presentation remote for your Windows PC or Mac. Change slides, point on the big screen and draw temporary lines, all from your phone, over the room's Wi‑Fi. No clicker, no USB receiver. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Next and previous slide with a tap or swipe. • Move a large on‑screen pointer by dragging on your phone. • Press and hold to draw a line that fades after a few seconds. It is a temporary highlight, not a saved annotation. • Let others join the meeting by scanning a QR code; each person gets a named pointer. WORKS WITH YOUR SLIDES PresentSync sends slide commands to the computer, so it works with slideshow software that advances with the keyboard: PowerPoint, Keynote, Google Slides, WPS Office, PDF presentations and more. The pointer and lines appear on the computer screen, not as a laser. HOW IT WORKS 1. Install the free PresentSync desktop app on the Windows PC or Mac connected to the projector or screen. 2. Sign in on your phone, then scan the QR code on the computer. 3. Start a meeting and present. Phone and computer need to be on the same Wi‑Fi network. WHO IT IS FOR Teachers and lecturers, corporate trainers, meeting hosts, students giving talks, and anyone who presents from a laptop and wants to walk away from the keyboard. PLANS The free plan lets you host one meeting at a time with up to 5 connected phones and up to 30 minutes of hosting per day. Personal removes the time limit. Pro adds two meetings at once and up to 10 connected phones. Plans and prices are shown on the App Store purchase screen; manage your account in the app. A PresentSync desktop app is required to control the computer.
