No its not such that you can use your iPhone instead of a Wii remote, its just that when you move the Wii remote, the virtual remote on the iPhone screen will also move. Thats it!

The hack uses bluetooth to connect the Wii remote with the iPhone. Video downstairs demoes it

The video first shows the iPhone’s AirPlane mode activated before starting an OpenGL-ES Demo. In the demo, the orientation of the virtual WiiMote is controlled by a physical WiiMote over a Bluetooth connection. For this demo, the portable Bluetooth Stack from the BTstack project was used.  The OpenGL-ES code was based on the excellent tutorial by Simon Maurice.
