Compatibility

• Tested with Blender 4.0 and newer on Windows.
• Remote control function requires a device (phone, tablet, or another computer) connected to the same local network as your computer.

Limitations

• The local server runs only inside Blender and stops when Blender is closed.
• Remote access is limited to the local network; it does not provide internet access. Make sure your Firewall allows connections within the same network.
