@chrismessina Remote works great in partnership with workflows (existing and new). While we have youthful, clever brains, sometimes there are just too many keywords and hotkeys to remember - This is when you can create a few Remote pages containing super-useful actions you can launch from your iPad. Prop it next to your Mac during your workday to turn it into a command centre; Add current web page to Evernote, restart your web server, connect to remote devices. Or just simply control your Spotify Mini Player with a workflow like this one: http://alfred-spotify-mini-playe... We'll be posting loads of great use cases on the Alfred blog over the next few weeks so keep an eye on that too! :) Cheers, Vero (Alfred co-founder)

@vero now that I've watched the video, I see that Alfred Remote is seen as a kind of persistent second-screen experience. I was thinking that you'd use this separately, on the go, to perform tasks remotely on your Mac. I see that this is more like a way to turn your iDevice into a controller for your Mac. Makes more sense now!

@vero @chrismessina agree with chris, that's what I was sure Alfred Remote was as well when I bought it. When I downloaded I was a bit disappointed that it's only working on the same wifi network.

@chrismessina @altryne At this point, it's same-network only but we're working on adding new connection methods; We'll be announcing them once we've been able to establish which provide the reliability and speed you need to enjoy your Remote experience :)
