Hi everyone,

I wondered if there is an app, or any way to control the iPad with your iPod touch or iPhone? I need this, because I have to teach sometimes and I do this with my iPad.

But because the iPad is connected to a projection device with a cable, I can't walk in the class anymore, because I have to sweep the slides on my iPad.

Is there now any way to control the iPad so that I can still walk around in the class?

Many thanks!

Damppy.

Currently there is no app I am aware of that will do this. However, if you are interested in jail breaking your iPad, you can use a bluetooth mouse to control the iPad once its jail broken. Instructions are here: Use iPad with Magic Mouse [Video] | Redmond Pie

I tried control iPad with iPhone 4 by VNC.
It worked well but not perfectly.
Step 1. Download & install an App named Veency on iPad, now you have a VNC server running on your iPad.
Step 2. Purchase or download & install a VNC client such as Jaadu/iTeleport/Moach... On your iPhone or iPod Touch.
Step 3. Now you can use your iPhone view & control the desktop of iPad when their are in same wifi area.

Try it.

^ best way

Only use, RealVNC...it is really inexpensive and very very powerful (coming from the company that invented VNC it should be!!)
