Report an issueWake-on-LAN for easy wake up calls. Use your iPhone or iPad to power up a sleeping Mac or PC on your network.
FEATURES:
- Easy detection of local computers with Bonjour and NETBIOS lookup. - Can ping your computer to check, when it it is ready. - Broadcast on a LAN. - Works from other networks as 3G and WIFI. - Can keep 30 configurations for computers to WOL. - Build in help guides.
HOW IT WORKS:
When you select a computer to wake, a special UDP data frame is broadcast on the LAN. When the sleeping computer see the data frame, it will wake up. If the iPhone or iPad is on another network, such as 3G, you must first configure the HOME router to forward the special UDP package.

8 of 25Works flawlessly! Easy setup.
This app works great! I have my router configured to forward the wake on LAN packet from this app, when I am away from home, and it works perfectly! I can also wake up my desktop with in my local network as well. This app is free and is the perfect solution. Why pay for some other app when this is free with no ads and works great?
Can get home and start my rig, Great for me cuz i am lazy
The UI is a bit kludgy, but it’s a simple task. This app gets the job done. Can’t really ask for more.
Rejoice! OP is not dead! 4.5 years later we finally get a better looking UI. Looks great on my 6S+, and still works, too!
Pretty useless app. When trying to send a packet over the internet it defaults to some strange broadcast address which never makes it anywhere, and won't detect vpn. Don't waste your time here, go get "remote boot" since it actually works and be done with it.
This app is great for beginners who are new to waking up their computers via network. Others have complained the interface isn't the best. Though I don't have any issues with the interface. Overall, this is a good app.
If the primary purpose of this app is to wake up servers, why does it always start in the configure mode? Just make WakeUp the default option and it will be near perfect. Also, why did you change my name to WOL User?
