The ultimate iPhone/iPod Touch remote control and trackpad app for your PC or Mac
Snatch Pro - Ultimate wireless trackpad / mouse, custom remote control, and keyboard for PC and Mac
This may not be the best app out of the lot, but it has some very decent features. Besides the expected mouse and keyboard control, Snatch Pro is capable of using remote templates built for specific apps on your computer so that you can control them with ease. This can be used for apps like iTunes, VLC, or even Photoshop. I personally found the app’s UI to be a little confusing, so it’s worth checking out the manual on the developer’s site first to see how you can make this app work for you. Apart from that, if you want a very flexible remote controlling app, this is the one.
What is it about?

What can you do with Snatch? In one word: Everything! Aside from the multi-touch trackpad and keyboard emulation, the Launch pad acts as an alt-tab app switcher combined with a mini-Mac OS / Windows 7 Dock for launching favorite apps. Even more amazingly, the Remote Control Editor lets you design beautiful custom layouts of remote control keys. Each key can be programmed as a shortcut for any sequence of keyboard and mouse actions. And if you don't want to design your own remotes, you can install pre-made remotes that we and other users created from our website!

**** IMPORTANT NOTE TO USERS WHO PURCHASED SNATCH BEFORE 7/2010 ****
Dear valued customers! Due to a change in developer accounts you will not be able to upgrade your copy of Snatch 3.1 to Snatch Pro for free, nor will you receive an automated upgrade notification.
Also note that this is why all the great feedback and scoring Snatch has accumulated over the years is missing from this page!
