Version 3.31
The Off Helper can now run on Linux and the iOS app has been updated to support this.
The app can now trigger WoL packets via other machines on the local same network. So, if you've got computer A and computer B in your home. If A is sleeping but B is on, if you try to wake A, Off will attempt to send the WoL packet from B. If you've got a computer, for example a Raspberry Pi, that's always left on then with this setup you avoid the need to do any configuration on your router.
