Pointer Remote for PowerPoint and Keynote 3.0

This application transforms your iPhone or iPad into a remote pointer and controller for PowerPoint or Keynote presentations. It provides functionality such as 'Next Slide' and 'Previous Slide' controls, and can display presentation notes along with a timer on the device's screen. The pointer icon can be customized with any image, allowing for humorous or personalized uses. Interaction is straightforward: tap the screen to toggle the pointer's visibility, which can then be moved either by dragging your finger for simplicity or by adjusting device orientation, which requires some practice.

System requirements include a Mac computer running OS X 10.7 or later, a WiFi connection (either on the same local network or through an ad hoc network), and the respective presentation software—PowerPoint or Keynote—selected via the app’s interface. Please note that this app does not support controlling Keynote presentations on an iPad.

The app necessitates the installation of a small, free Mac application called PointerServer, which must be launched each time you use the app. It is available for download at: http://www.zentropysoftware.com/ZS/Pointer_files/PointerServer3.zip

It is important to clarify that the presentation itself runs on your computer; the iPhone or iPad acts solely as a remote control interface.
