Before your next talk.
Is this a physical laser?
No. Remoter draws a digital pointer on your Mac screen. It does not project a laser beam onto a wall or flipchart.
Can I download Presenter Pro today?
This page previews the development build. The public download remains beta v0.2.3; Presenter Pro and its license terms are not confirmed for that package.
Will the pointer appear in online meetings?
That depends on your display and screen-sharing mode. Test with another participant first; application-only sharing may omit overlays.
Do I need to buy another remote?
Reuse a compatible Siri Remote if you already have one. Otherwise, budget for the remote separately from the app. Gestures here illustrate Gen 3.
