## Review summary

PC Remote offers strong remote control of a PC with highly customizable layouts and even self-built configurations, plus a clear accessibility benefit for users relying on touch input. On iOS, however, connectivity is unreliable due to missing Bluetooth/USB support and frequent drops. Ads disrupt gameplay, and there are bugs in layouts/controls (e.g., trackpad/joystick conflicts, fullscreen issues). Security concerns and login reliability further reduce trust. It’s powerful but needs stability, parity with Android features, and privacy assurances on iOS.

### Pros

- Excellent remote PC control with extensive customization and layout options.
- Supports self-built/custom layouts, allowing tailored control schemes.
- Accessibility benefit for users with disabilities, enabling reentry into PC gaming.

### Cons

- Unreliable iOS connectivity with missing Bluetooth/USB support, leading to frequent connection failures.
- Intrusive ads disrupt usage (including explicit ads reported by users).
- Bugs and gaps in layout/controls, such as trackpad/joystick conflicts and remote desktop not fullscreen.
- Authentication issues and security concerns, including difficult password handling and spyware allegations.
