LibreOffice Impress Remote for iPhone/iPad
LibreOffice Impress Remote for iPhone and iPad is now available in the iTunes store.
It joins the Impress Remote for Android released in January last year and available through the Google Play store.
The app allows you to use a smartphone, iPad, or tablet to remotely manage the LibreOffice Impress presentation running on a laptop, by showing a miniature of the slides on the screen and allowing you to navigate back and forth by sweeping right and left with your fingers. You can also see the presenter’s notes.
For more information on the LibreOffice Impress Remote for iPhone and iPad, see this blog post.

LibreOffice 4.2 is an important release; here’s why
Charles-H. Schulz has written a post examining why LibreOffice 4.2 matters more than you think. He gives three main reasons:
- This is a major code overhaul, including a brand new engine for Calc.
- It is more Enterprise-ready than many others. The post provides examples.
- It’s not about success. It’s about what comes next. The amount of code clean-up, refactoring, write up, the inclusion of new features and the continued growth of contributors between the moment the Document Foundation released LibreOffice 4.0 and the 4.2 is truly amazing. The 4.0 was a major accomplishment, but this time we did even more.
Please make any comments on the original post on Charles’s blog.
