Alright, I’ll accept it, I’m a big fan of Apple’s Remote app. Why? Well It’s kind of cool to be hosting a party at home with friends, have the stereo system and my PC in the second floor and do a good job in being a host downstairs while I also play the DJ role with my iPhone. So yeah, if you haven’t used the Remote app yet, this app will allow you to control your iTunes library remotely as long as both devices share the same Wi-Fi connection. The new version 2.0 is more of an iPad update, but it does include some minor UI changes for the iPhone.

A list of what’s new for V2.0 includes:

• It’s now designed for iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad

• Optimized for Retina displays and large screen real estate on iPad

• Support for Shared Libraries on iTunes and new Apple TV

• Bug fixes and compatibility with iTunes 10 and the new Apple TV

A full list of features include:

• Control iTunes and Apple TV, from anywhere in your home

• Pause, rewind, fast forward, shuffle, and adjust the volume from your iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad

• View album, movie, and TV show artwork

• Create and update Genius playlists

• Create and edit playlists in iTunes

• Search your entire iTunes library

• Control iTunes to send music to AirPlay speakers

• Control the volume on each speaker independently

• Control Apple TV with simple finger gestures

• Enter text with the keyboard

• Even control Shared Libraries on iTunes and the new Apple TV

Remember, this is free so it won’t hurt to give it a try if you haven’t. Here’s the iTunes link.
