When testing Rowmote, I encountered the occasional glitch where it would fail to recognize the Mac it was supposed to be connected to. This appeared to be a problem with the iPhone losing its connection to my wireless network rather than something caused by Rowmote. To help ensure against lost connections, Rowmote includes a Settings screen where you can enable a Stay Connected option (you can also enable an option that prevents the connected computer from going to sleep). These are handy options, but they'll drain the iPhone or iPod touch's battery more quickly.

If you use your Mac as a media center--whether occasionally or full-time--or would like to easily control presentations from your iPhone or iPod touch, you should have this useful and affordable remote control.
