Works OK - Unable to see next slide on I/Pad - Perfect on I/Phone – i-Clickr Remote for PowerPoint Lite Review

I tried mbPointerHD and this program. This program works well but does have a crash issue in the settings on the I/Pad. I did not have any crashes while testing it out on a few powerpoint presentations. Others may be experiencing crashes which may be due to certain slide animations, but it did crashed every time I pressed the help button in the settings on the I/Pad. mbPointerHD - basic program with no special features. This one is much better between the two. Pros: 1. Actually this is a a great thing. The ability to see the notes on the slides without having carry around a printout of the slide notes. I cannot say enough of how great the slide view with the notes on my screen. 2. The ability to annotate on the slide on the screen on the I/Pad. 3. WORKS PERFECT on the I/Phone (you have to select the notes or slide - you cannot see both on the I/Phone) 4. You can see the upcoming slide on the I/Phone 5. So sluggishness on the I/Phone. Cons: 1. Sluggish response - the slide would show from one to two seconds before the slide changes on the I/Pad. 2. The settings indicated that the next slide would show, but I could not get this to work properly. It would only show the current slide. 3. Free version only allows 15 slides to show 4. Free version does not allow you to switch shows while app is open 5. iClickr makes the user select the slideshow on the host computer first, not too big of an issue Bottom line: I would recommend this for short and easy presentations right out of the gate. I would completely test it on any professional presentation a few times before actually presenting with it. The slide notes view is great. I may step up and try the paid version and see if that performs any better. $10.00 for an app is a little high priced given the price range for most apps. For $10, it had better work great, but based on prior version reviews, I am hesitant. If it was $4 or $5, no hesitation. $10.00 with the reviews as they are for previous versions - worries me.
