As I’m sure you know, I’m a huge fan of automation - anything that makes life easier, provides more control and simplifies things.

Hell, that’s why I decided to go online in the first place!

Yesterday I found a great little tool that I wanted to share with you by way of a little early Christmas gift

It’s an app called Full Control for iOS devices (sorry PC peeps!) 

IT’s free but has has a great upgrade for peanuts (£1.49 to be precise) 

Check it our here http://fullcontrol.cescobaz.com/

What it does is to turn your Iphone and ipad into a full remote control for you Laptop - and unlike a number of other remote mouse type apps I’ve tried it actually works REALLY well.

I wanted it to help me work on music and video stuff when my Laptop is plugged into our TV’s so that I have a great big screen to work with

But it also means that when we watch Netflix etc on the laptop and send it to the TV’s I can control it from bed, my arm chair… wherever.

I can even shut down the laptop from there when we’re done! 

It’s fab - like having your entire desktop available and controllable from a phone. 

There's a million and one uses for this  - both business and pleasure

I love this app and hope you do too! 

Cheers!
