iSofa: Allowing You to Control Your Mac from Your iPhone/iPod Touch

by Jody Mitoma on May 22, 2008 at 12:44 pm



As the title of this story suggests, iSofa allows you to sit back, relax, and control your Mac computer using your iPhone/iPod Touch.

Check out a video of the application in action below (or see here):

Features:
• Keynote Remote
• iTunes Remote
• VLC Remote
• DVD Player Remote
• QuickTime Remote
• FrontRow Remote
• iTunes Alarm Clock Remote
• Browser / Launcher
• Screen wake up
• Screen sleep
• Screensaver launcher

How it works
You just have to install iSofa on your Mac.
iSofa is a web application, it uses the Apache web server of your Mac.
You will access iSofa using Safari from your iPhone / iPod Touch.
Once iSofa is installed, an administration page is available from your Mac : http://127.0.0.1:9999/admin/

Requirements
Mac OS Tiger or Leopard
iPhone/iPod Touch (no need to be jailbroken)

I don’t own a Mac, personally, so I cannot give my personal opinnion about this one, but if you do decide to give it a go, please share your thoughts with us. Thank you.
