The situation

Wake-on-LAN is an Ethernet or token ring computer networking standard that allows a computer to be turned on or awakened by a network message. So our main task was to build a native app for iOS that makes the life of users easier due to the remote starting of start computers.

The solution

Using this application, users can:
  • start a computer (PC or Mac) remotely, by sending a special Wake-on-LAN network request.

Technology stack

Key results

We developed a simple tool to wake up devices on your LAN, knowing just the MAC address.
