    Is there an app that I can use to remotely support an ipad 2 from a PC?

    Inlaws just got one and have a lot of questions. So far I'm thinking vnc and port forwarding. Anything easier?

    I did think team viewer would work, but it seemed to be a viewing app, to control other devices. I'll have a look at it again.

    None of these seem to work in the way I would need. They all allow you to remotely control a pc, but none of them seem to allow you to remotely control an iPad.

    I've looked at log mien, team viewer, join.me, splash desktop etc.
