About this app

No agent to install on your PC! - Use WOL, Telnet and/or SSH to control your PC.

Start / On / Shutdown / Off / Run A Script on your PC, reboot your router and more.

WARNING: This app will not work "out of the box". It requires knowledge of WOL, Telnet and SSH to make it work and will also require some configuration on the computer you want to use it with. If you don't know what WOL, telnet or SSH is or understand why you might want to use these technologies over other ways of doing this the app is probably not for you. To test your PC setup, connect and issue the command you want the app to send via a telnet client or command prompt from another device first. You can also use the apps debug mode to troubleshoot. If you contact me I will try and help you as much as I can.

“PC Start Shutdown and More” is an Android application designed primarily to switch your PC on and off from within your local LAN/network. It works with Windows, Linux and many more devices! It can also be used for a vast variety of other remote functions including restarting your PC, running a script or copying some files– in fact pretty much anything that can be done from the command prompt can be done via this app. This is a Lite version which limits the number of buttons you can create. Good for testing! A full version is available on Google Play for purchase.

How it works…

Send commands to your PC from the app by customising the app settings which can include everything from the name of the button to the command you are sending. Switch on debug mode to see the output from the remote server - great for troubleshooting.

Examples might include...

1. Send a WOL packet to switch your PC on.
2. Send a command to shut down or restart your PC.
3. Send a command to restart your router.
4. Run a script on your PC.
5. Start or stop a service.

Use windows Telnet (built into windows) or install a SSH server for added security and encryption when connecting and sending commands. The app has been tested and is known to work with FreeSSHd SSH server and MobaSSH server but should work with many others.

Just a note, if you don't know what telnet or ssh is this app is not for you. However if you have even a basic idea of how to use a command line then you will find this app fast and efficent at remotly turning on and off devices on a network. After trying this briefly I paid for the full version. I've had an Android phone for years and this is my fitst purchace on the play store!

Once a master password is set... when you try to add a new button... it says no password set or decryption error. This is right out of the box with default config. Please fix.

App no longer works after update which requires master password. Shame because before it was a really handy tool.

Hello. Can I ask what doesn't work? Is it not running or simply not saving the password correctly? Many thanks.
