Remote Control your PC with your iPhone

Have you ever wanted to be able to control your computer using your iPhone? Here are three methods to allow you to control your computer remotely.

LogMeIn

TechnologyEvangelist describes how to configure LogMeIn to allow you to control your PC with your iPhone. Essentially you change the LogMeIn Remote Control preferences to use HTML instead of ActiveX. It’s a little slow but it works. As the article says, it would be great if LogMeIn automatically selected HTML for iPhone users so you don’t get a slow connection when you log in from a remote PC.

VNSea

If you have jailbroken your iPhone, CNET shows you how to set up VNSea to control your Mac or Windows PC.

  1. Install a VNC Server on your PC.
  2. Jailbreak your iPhone if you haven’t already.
  3. Use the jailbreak Installer.app or Cydia to install VNSea.
  4. Launch VNSea and tap the Connect button on the VNC Servers screen
  5. Enter a name for the session, followed by the IP address and password you configured in your VNC Server

When connected, tap the top of your iPhone screen near the time display to switch between interactive mode an scroll mode.

iPhone Browser with TightVNC

Natetrue at Cre.ations.net hacked TightVNC to let you use the iPhone’s Safari browser to remote into your Windows PC.

  1. Download the application from the Cre.ations.net site
  2. Extract all the files into a folder and run WinVNC.exe
  3. Enter a password
  4. Note your computer’s IP address and type it into the iPhone Safari address bar like http:///192.168.5.21:5800/
  5. Enter the password and tap Log In
  6. Select a window, or choose Full Desktop to show it all
