Pros and cons of WakeUp - The Wake on LAN tool app for iPhone and iPad

WakeUp - The Wake on LAN tool app good for

Very nice app which does what you expect from it. I only miss that a VPN-connection is recognized as Wi-Fi.
Fantastic app, UI, server app works well on Windows. This is exactly what I wanted! That being said, would be awesome to see Mac support in the future - Ive emailed the Dev requesting this, would encourage others to do the same.
One of the my best apri. And, this price is very useful. 会社やコンビニの Wi-Fi でつないで使ってます。 自宅のマシンからデーターを取り出して、終わったら Teamviewer で Shutdown してます。
Really cool app! Thank you! But I really recommend you to make an instruction about firewall with ports, and magic pack! Thats really nessesary and easy! I spend whole day trying to figure out everything. Really hope that all LAN functions will be available with Wi-Fi somehow. Hope that can be made. Thank you!
Good work! Please add support sleep and shutdown for linux!!! This is so semple.
Very easy for use, and it really works. Thanks to developers, its very good app! :)

Some bad moments

Sleep is not working in version 2.0.9. Shutdown works. All was working till version 2.0.8
one star for the nice icon. Thats it! No function, if i touch the plus in the middle. (Ipad air). No support. 0,89 cent for nothing!
This program is not working correctly . he wake up on the network works and other functions cause the closure of the program , and the next time it is difficult to run. developers check your program!
Although the app found my Macs on my network it would not wake them. And then when I wrote to the developer for help he didnt wake either.
Ive been searching through sites and forums all day trying to figure out how to properly use Wake Over LAN. This app pretty much auto configures most of your settings once connected to wifi. My only gripe is instructions on connecting over 3G and a simple tutorial for properly configuring your PC for WOL. I figured most of this out myself except for 3G. Make those changes and youll have five stars. Keep up the great work!
No online support but emails to the developer were quickly answered regarding setup. Keyboard keeps popping off screen when trying to type which is incredibly annoying but once it is all setup it works fine. Five stars if those issues are resolved.
