PhonePresenter for Windows

Brief summary

PhonePresenter is a lightweight Windows utility that turns a smartphone into a presentation controller. By establishing a websocket link between the phone and a PC, it gives presenters direct control over slideshow playback without requiring a physical clicker.

Connection and installation

Setup is straightforward: install the Windows component, launch the app, and connect your mobile device over the websocket connection. No complicated pairing steps are required, and the interface is designed to make first-time setup quick for non-technical users.

Core features

• Advance and reverse slides, start and stop slide shows, and jump to specific slides from your phone.

• Lightweight UI on both ends that emphasizes ease of use and minimal configuration.

Who benefits

• Teachers and lecturers who need to move freely around the room while controlling slides.
• Business presenters looking for a simple, cable-free way to manage meetings.
• Students delivering classroom presentations who want a reliable mobile remote.

Cost and alternatives
