but kinda hope more control buttons such as Repeat, Shuffle to be added

Its cool...

...but wish it did more.

Tip

Nest step: Enable us to use our wired keyboard as a keyboard for the iPhone...

app ok

Not much going on here, the slide show doesnt work for iPhone? Wish there were other features. How about seeing what you are doing on the mac? Im I missing something?

May I suggest a few improvements?

This is a great app, just wish it did the following: - Ability to send / type on the screen. That way, we could send SMS without having to use the Iphone Keyboard. Thanks in advance!

Legit

Ok, It might not have THAT many cool things but hey, its pretty sick controlling your iPhone with your mac keyboard! and it does it well! idk why when I hit the "song album cover" for the iPhone, it shows me my photos and also locks my screen but w.e lol Also when my iPhone is already locked and I click the lock button, it kinda turns on and turns off right away.. it would be cool if it turned it back on so i could put in my password. Just saying! but its awesome! Cant wait for more features and updates! Thanks! OH and btw, can you make it (or find a way) where you can set the FN + F keys to work anywhere? like from any app and not have to have the app selected (idc about having the app open).. idk if that is possible.. ok too long bye

cool app!

works well, hopefully well get a advanced version soon which will control the entire screen for iPad!
