I generally don’t like talking about things before they are done, since as a small company our plans and priorities can change rather suddenly. Plus, our development style is pretty experimental. We try a lot of things and end up throwing away most of them because they don’t end up working as well as we initially imagined.

That said, a lot of folks have been asking about our iPad plans and rather than continually responding with no comment, I figure I would just lay bare what we know right now (which isn’t a whole lot).

Are we working on an iPad version of HippoRemote?
Yes.

When will it be ready?
When we’re happy with it.

Will it be a universal app?
We haven’t decided. We’re not thinking about anything other than making an app we love using every day.

So there it is — our iPad Plan. It’s not much, but it’s all we have right now.

Typing logins and passwords with the iPhone can be a real pain. So let HippoRemote do the work for you! Store your logins in the Login Manager and enter them with a single tap.

It’s just one of the many thoughtful features we’ve put into HippoRemote Pro. See our previous web ads featuring Pause On Call and the Proximity Sensor. Or visit our videos page for in-depth demonstrations.

With our Proximity Sensor, keep HippoRemote Pro running without worrying about your battery.

To enable the Proximity Sensor, go into HippoRemote Pro’s settings, scroll down the the Misc Settings section, enable Stay Awake, then enable the Proximity Sensor option.

We had a bit of fun making really short videos highlighting some of the unique features of HippoRemote Pro.

Here’s the first:

To enable Pause on Call, go into HippoRemote Pro’s settings, scroll down to the Misc Settings section, enable Stay Awake, and then enable Pause on Call.
