PC Controller turns your iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch into a remote control for your Windows PC or Mac. Move the mouse, type, change the volume, switch monitors, move files and put the computer to sleep, all over your own Wi-Fi, with no cloud, no account and nothing to sign up for. Install the free agent on your computer, scan the QR code it shows, and you're paired. The app also lists the computers it finds on your network, so there's nothing to type.
