Rowmote Pro for Mac App Reviews

I’ve been using this app for years. It’s never given me issues of any sort. It just always works and with almost every option a keyboard and trackpad has. This is especially nice since I have rearranged my home studio. I no longer need to sit directly in front of the computer to record and perform light engineering work. Very happy.

With the update to Big Sur came the Airplay feature no longer being executed. When I try any airplay feature with Rowmote pro and the latest helper update none of the actions work. Please let me know if I can fix this on my own or if it is a known bug being addressed. Thanks for the terrific app. Been using it for years.

Once upon a time this was the best remote control on the App Store. Simple and sleek in its design, it allowed you to easily control your Apple devices… Now there are a lot of connection issues and sometimes even if your computer is in range it says that it’s unavailable. The troubleshooting help on the website is a very little help, but if you email the support team they do get back to you relatively quickly. I would say the fact that they don’t bother to update the information in the App Store

Love this app, does exactly what I want. When I’m too lazy to go over to my computer I can remotely sleep it. I can move the mouse. I can control the volume... it’s just works the way I want it to. A few times I’ve had connection problems but that’s been less than 10% of the time.

I’ve been using rowmote for many years and it’s never worked quite as it should, I just updated to 4.2.4 and finally it’s working as it should… That is until I restarted my computer, at which point it’s back to its jerky movements old self… oh well maybe the next step date or fix it…. Regardless, still a great app…

This app never fails me. Just migrated to a new Mac Studio and this gem keeps shining. Thank you!

Been a long time user, and fan of Rowmote. What puts it over the edge for me though, copy paste?! That said, I'm not sure how secure it is to use this over a network - but it's a daily part of my life for sure.

Will have to get used to the new UI layout of this app. After many years of using this app, I miss the old UI layout which I still think was very good, but at least, this app is still back up and working with my old iMac! Thanks for the update and fix!

Finally a much needed update has arrived, especially for the new iPhones. Even though there is still an issue with fn functions not properly displaying in landscape mode. Hopefully a fix will come sooner then later.

This app may be ancient, but it does exactly what you need it to do. *Make sure you give the helper app on your Mac accessibility access*. I’m using it to control my laptop playing videos in Firefox. My phone is now my media remote!

I think I’ve been looking for this tool my entire life as I stream a lot using a VPN on my computer and it’s a pain to get up to control the remote functions (play, pause, volume.) This app was easy to install and connect. A great need meets a great solution.
