Business App: Keynote Remote

I absolutely LOVE this app. I use it on my iPhone and I’m able to control and manipulate a keynote presentation on my iPad while it’s synced to an overhead projector. I’ve had one issue thus far and it’s that both devices must be connected to the same WIFI signal (you may want to enable hotspot on your iPhone and connect your iPad to your iPhone’s wifi signal). Even when connected, it took me a few attempts to get the two devices to speak to each other. Once up and rolling, this app performed magnificently. I feel it’s totally worth the small price of a dollar.
