How to deliver and control presentation on Apple TV using Show on your iPhone and iPad

Once your iPhone/iPad is connected with the Apple TV, you can start using your phone as a remote to control slides on the big screen. You can even allow your audience to follow on a slide deck across multiple Apple TVs by controlling slides from a single mobile device. The Remote View of your Phone comes with a lot of exciting features to deliver your slides to the audience as you move around a presentation hall.
