Update – Remote Tap

By

There are a number of excellent apps that let you use your iPhone or iPod touch as a mouse. One of the best is Remote Tap. It not only allows you to use the iPhone as a mouse but it offers full remote
management of a connected Mac.

In fact, it makes it super easy to see which apps are running, which are in the dock or which are simple accessible from the applications folder. It is continually updated and with each update is faster, easier to use and more feature-rich.

The most recent update was sent to Apple on April 6th and finally went live tonight. This update adds some killer features to an already great app. Among them…

-The app now turns you iPhone into an easy to use Front Row remote. (Ah yes, the final nail in the white remote’s plastic coffin)

-You can now control and select the various Spaces (assuming you use this Leopard feature.)

– If you use multiple displays you can see their arrangement and select them.

Of all the new features the nearest one is the Front Row support which visually replicates the familiar remote in either landscape or portrait.
