As I am going to be giving a few Powerpoint presentation in the near future. I thought I would explore the possibility of using my iPhone and or iPad as a Bluetooth remote control for my Windows 10 Laptop. Following the usual Google browse I eventually decided on Unified Remote.
As is often the case with app's there is a FREE and a paid for version. I tried the FREE version first and after adding the Slide Show Remote option to the selection of Remotes, I found it worked extremely well. There are a set of default Remote options and a selection of additional FREE ones to add and of course a range of PAID for Remotes as well.
You need to install the App on both Laptop or PC and your iPhone or iPad, which was painless in both cases. It will work with both WiFi and Bluetooth but I have only tested it with Bluetooth.
The most irritating bit was getting my iPad and my Laptop to talk to each other, but turned out I was not following the correct procedure!
