Preso Remote is a simple app that allows an iPhone or iPod Touch to be used as a remote control for MS PowerPoint presentations. Just swipe down to move the next slide and up to move to the previous slide.
Because Preso Remote connects over the Internet, it does not have to be in the vicinity of the computer on which a presentation is loaded. It also does not have to be on the same local network. Just so the presentation computer and the iPhone can both connect to the Internet, the app should function correctly.
Preso Remote works through most firewalls and other security barriers. It is highly secure--the app connects via SSL, does not require an incoming network connection, and transmits only the commands required to control the presentation, not the presentation itself.
A MS Windows "helper" application must be installed on the computer used to display presentations. This application is free, and available at
