You pay for fast internet. Your bedroom gets dial-up. Range Up shows you exactly where to put a Wi-Fi extender so every room gets the speed you're paying for. A $30 extender in the right spot can outperform a $300 mesh in the wrong spots. The hard part is knowing where "the right spot" actually is. Range Up turns that into a 2-minute, tap-tap-done answer. HOW IT WORKS 1. Sketch your floor plan — start blank, use a smart starter layout, or pick a template. 2. Drop in your router where it actually sits. 3. Pick the room that matters most — your office, your bedroom, the patio. 4. Get a recommended extender spot, with a side-by-side BEFORE / AFTER coverage view. WHY IT WORKS • Visual heatmap shows you exactly where your signal is dying — and why (walls, distance, building materials). • Actionable placement advice, not raw dBm numbers you have to interpret. • Works with any extender or mesh node — no vendor lock-in. • Everything runs on-device. No accounts, no cloud, no Wi-Fi scanning permissions required. GREAT FOR • Remote workers tired of video calls dropping in the home office • Anyone paying $50–$120/month for "gigabit" speeds they only see next to the router • Renters who can't run ethernet • People setting up mesh or extender systems who want to optimize placement before mounting anything FREE TO TRY Build a floor plan, place your router, and see your dead zones — free. Pro unlocks multi-floor homes, save & export your plans, and unlimited placements. Stop paying for speeds you don't get in the rooms you actually use. privacy policy: https://www.uzelabs.com/privacy?app=range-up&lang=en terms of service: https://www.uzelabs.com/terms?app=range-up&lang=en

Switch your Mac's saved window workspaces from iPhone or iPad. QuickLayout gives you a touch-friendly list of Layouts on your paired Mac, with search, Apply, desktop status and Undo. A Mac running QuickLayout on the same local network is required for remote operation. Create and edit Layouts on the Mac first. This iOS app does not arrange other iPhone or iPad apps' windows. CHOOSE A WORKSPACE - Browse saved Layouts with their display profile and app/window counts. - Search by Layout name. Favorites set on the Mac appear first. - Keep a focused list on iPhone or use the wider Layout grid on iPad. APPLY AND UNDO - Tap Apply to send the selected Layout to your Mac. - See progress and the desktop's result, including partial results or errors. - Refresh the list and desktop status. - Use Undo when the Mac reports that its previous arrangement can be restored. PAIR WITH YOUR MAC - Enable Mobile remote in QuickLayout's Mac settings and keep the app open. - Find the Mac on your local network or enter its IP address manually. - Compare the six-digit code on both devices and approve pairing on the Mac. - Reconnect to saved, approved desktops. - No QuickLayout account or cloud relay is required. Paired commands use an authenticated encrypted connection. SET UP LAYOUTS ON MAC Install the bundled QuickLayout Window Bridge shortcut when prompted by the Mac app. Save the window arrangements you want to switch between. Layout capture, editing, Quick Placement and automation setup stay on the Mac; your iPhone or iPad selects and applies those saved workspaces. PREVIEW THE INTERFACE Explore demo shows sample Layouts without a Mac connection. It is a labelled interactive preview only: no desktop commands are sent. FREE AND PRO Start with a seven-day trial. Remote-control features remain available in Free after the trial, with advertising. Pro removes ads through a yearly subscription or a one-time lifetime purchase. Restore Purchases is available.
