- 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
The app also gains universal status with an adapted interface for the iPad and high-resolution graphics for the Retina Display of the iPhone 4 and latest iPod touch, plus specific compatibility with the new Apple TV and iTunes 10.
