Incredibly useful app This app I incredibly useful. It was up and running in seconds flat. My travel mouse broke, and this replaced it. Great for making presentations. I'm a speaker, and this is way more convenient to run a presentation than having my whole laptop on the podium with wires running across the room, or even having to use a clicker ( this is more versatile).

Very happy - works great Latest keyboard layouts are a great addition. It has worked flawlessly with my Media Center PC in the living room so far. I only wish there was a "MCE mode" whith skip forward/backward keys. Right now I have to use the mouse for that. Other than that, this app is perfect!

Much more than a mouse Without a doubt one of my favorite apps. When I first got this app, I thought it was cool and a novel idea. Then I found out all it can do. Calling it a mouse is actually a disservice to this app. It is a remote control for your computer.Not quite sure what some people are complaining about in the reviews. It has installed and worked perfectly for me. And the one time it did not work (I had the server software at a different version level than the iPhone software), I received a quick response and was perfectly happy.To be honest, when using it as a mouse, I use the touch pad mode rather than the in-air motion mode. Perhaps with some practice, the in-air motion mode could become usable, but I didn’t have the patience to dedicate time to it. And from using laptops, the touch pad mode feels very natural.I highly recommend this app.

ABSOLUTELY AWESOME!! Great application. Hooked my laptop up to my 50" LCD TV to watch past episodes of TV programs, such as LOST. I sit on my sofa and operate my laptop to watch programs and surf the net all on my huge TV. Also great for powerpoint presentations. I have nothing bad to say about this application!! Way to go developers. Well worth your money.

wouldnt it be cool if... wouldnt it be cool if we could see the screen we were using on the screen of the ipod/phone? I know there is another application that does that - remote buddy - but for one thing that doesnt have the whole air mouse idea, just a trackpad. and its $30. so maybe for screen intergration. click yes if you think that screens would be a good idea - Mobile Mouse Pro (Remote / Trackpad) review by Jonosad
Very Impressed! The app works very well. It does as it says and does an excellent job at it. At first I had some problems installing the Air Mouse server from their website. However I sent an email to them and got a very fast response. (like 10 min. or less) I did as the person suggested and then it worked perfectly! I am extremely impressed with the customer service and the product.Pros: Works well; Cool useful interface; great customer service;easy to use (once you get used to it); has both a touch pad and a gyro-mouse function along with a keyboardCons: Because the accelerometer does not regester movement from side to side you must tip the iPhone/iPod in order to move the mouse side to side which is'nt really their fault... its more the accelerometer's fault so I didn't dock a star for it. Although it is awkward at first, it works well when you are used to the feel of it. =) - Mobile Mouse Pro (Remote / Trackpad) review by iPod_fan_who_dislikes_Macs
Long way from perfect I find the air mouse pretty much unusable (my wrist started to hurt after a while). It is not even close to how a Gyration mouse handles (granted it is somewhat cheaper). The problem is in how it translates accelerometer data. It would be more accurate if it simply used the angle to compute acceleration instead of pinpointing the location on screen. That way if would work for 1080p resolution without having to swing multiple times. The touch pad function is much better, but there is another app that uses the entire screen for touchpad and it only costs $2. That app also has a keyboard that can send ctrl/alt/cursors and functional keys unlike air mouse. I will give the app one more star for fixing the air mouse and another one for fixing the keyboard. - Mobile Mouse Pro (Remote / Trackpad) review by m_g_x
4 big ones Pros: I love that is works with both Mac 10.4+ and XP/Vista. Very much admire the brilliant thought put into this app. Love the easy to use trackpad.Cons: If the air mouse feature can be upgraded than it should. Needs password protection just for security reasons. Needs a retractable keyboard for more useable trackpad area.1 more star: if they fix all of those cons.But until then, it is worth 4 dollars... not 6.They might want to create an "Air Mouse Lite", where you can use the mouse for a free 20 minutes so the buyers can get a true feel of the app. - Mobile Mouse Pro (Remote / Trackpad) review by DariusS
Revolutionary This app is incredible, it takes a while to get used but it is worth it. my advice is to read all instructions on the dev's website before using.My most wanted features are: - arrow keys- full screen touchpad- landscape mode, esp. key board and touchpad landscape modes- hiding keyboard- more hotkeys - the scroll wheel thing jumps up or down when you take your finger off of it, please fix- when scrolling left or right on the touchpad and trying to press a small button, the cursor jumps when you take your finger off of it.By the way, I wrote this almost exclusively using air mouse. - Mobile Mouse Pro (Remote / Trackpad) review by Jman957
Simply THE BEST This is the best and most useful application so far. I had purchased a $150 wireless mouse/keyboard to surf web on my plasma tv. Air Mouse is better than that. Great work! - Mobile Mouse Pro (Remote / Trackpad) review by gulmarg
Clunky Even on a 2.8 GHz dual core Windows XP machine that is well tuned response, is greatly inferior to the cheapest wireless mouse. The touch screen settings make it it more or less usable but the accelerometer settings make it not usable, IMO. This is the first ap I wanted my money back on. - Mobile Mouse Pro (Remote / Trackpad) review by paulfromAtlanta
Great! A wireless mouse for $6! What more could you want?

Gr8 app. / Easy 2 setup / Suggestions below It was a BREEZE to setup. I downloaded and installed a small little app and changed the ip address and sterted the app up and it was working right away (on windows XP). Perfect execution there.Here's what I hope to see in a near future update:Landscape keyboard.Option for larger trackpad with only one small button for right click that can be set to any of the 4 corners (left button is redundant with tap to click). The larger pad without a keyboard would give a longer scroll area and stop accidental letter presses. Ability to adjust vertical/horizontal sensitivity INDEPENDENTLY! I believe independent calibration would really help the air mouse feature tremendously. Cuz the horizontal motion is very acceptable, but the vertical is off and needs to be tweaked.There is a small graphical glitch when going to settings with how the ip address is displayed for the first second. In air mode:Also when you click the left or right button it turns on the motion movement and pushes you away from your target by the time you release the button. You should redesign it so that when you click and release within a very short time frame no movement occurs, but if you hold it it will allow you to still drag and drop. Just a simple delayed reaction of what already happens. - Mobile Mouse Pro (Remote / Trackpad) review by WouldUdoit
Dissapointed This app only works if your comp is using wifi as well. Other apps (Air Share, for instance) work just fine if the computers are connected via Ethernet to the same wifi network as the iPhone, I was counting on this to do the same. Oh well, it sure sounds neat at least.
And I am one of the few having problems with setup with my one comp that does use the wifi, the computer is running the server and my iPhone recognizes the server, but no mouse/keyboard control whatsoever. To prospective buyers, I'd suggest downloading Bonjour first (a free download that this app uses anyways), and testing whether you can get that to work with your device, if yes, buy away! - Mobile Mouse Pro (Remote / Trackpad) review by Alf!
sweet works awesome! typing from it right now. very nice. Worth the $6 - Mobile Mouse Pro (Remote / Trackpad) review by chiznuck
