I’ve run into very few problems with Rowmote over the years, and most of those have been rapidly fixed by an update to the app or its OS X helper companion. Rowmote also provides quick access to launching applications on your Mac, and–in a really nice touch–even offers a mini version of your Dock, letting you quickly switch between open apps or launch other programs you use frequently. I also find that Rowmote allows me to drag files much more seamlessly than most of the other similar apps I’ve tried in the past, and it’s got good support for two-finger scrolling. It makes it easy to access modifier keys like Control, Option, and Command, whether you’re using the trackpad or the keyboard, and there’s a Function mode that lets you access other common keys, like the cursors, Page Up/Page Down, F-keys, and so on. I’ve been using Rowmote Pro for a long time there are other apps for controlling your Mac using your iPhone or iPad, and most of them are perfectly fine–this one just happens to be my favorite.īack when I was still running Plex as an app on my Mac mini, I used Rowmote’s Apple-Remote-style interface a lot, but now I rely much more on the trackpad/keyboard option.
But that’s when I fall back on my trusty remote control app: Rowmote Pro. So to the Mac mini it is! Unfortunately, it’s not the most friendly device for watching content, because it usually means interacting with a web browser via a keyboard and/or mouse. These days, that’s more often than not because services like Hulu don’t always have the rights to stream certain shows to set-top boxes or mobile devices.
