  • Keyboard issues

    Can y’all add an always on keyboard option? Disabling the automatic option still closes the keyboard.

  • Thought this might work...

    But, intro page asks for a connection but provides ZERO information on what connection to use. Is this my WiFi connection? No help, no way to contact.
    Sorry, but this is (literally) a non-starter.

  • Screen half obscured by keyboard

    Seemed to work OK and all the old settings ported over automatically. Unfortunately, the lower HALF of the ipad screen is taken up by the touch keyboard. I could not find any way to get rid of it.
    I have a bluetooth keyboard, so don't need half my screen area taken up by the keyboard. On the legacy version, there is a "keyboard hide" key that enables the keyboard to be hidden, and you can just use the hardware bluetooth keyboard.
    In both versions, the hardware and touchscreen keyboards are active simultaneously, so it is crazy not to be able to hide the touch screen one in this software version. Useless unless you have a very large ipad. Sorry, I have to give. It 2 stars because of reduced usability.

  • Works OK - Missing Gestures

    The app works OK and introduces some nice features but it lacks support for custom gestures that are found in the legacy version of the app. The gestures can really help bridge the gap between mobile and legacy applications by allowing the user to trigger actions and keys using a gesture.

  • Great RDP Product!

    I have used Parallels Client for years - a very solid and reliable RDP client.

    I would like to see a feature like “folders” added to the Connections screen to allow grouping of individual connections.
  • Useless: does not connect

    After installing and migrating connections from the legacy app I tried them all and none could connect saying: “server not found”.

    But before throwing the new app away (legacy still works ok) I tried recreating one of the connections from scratch.

    It sure connected which means I have to manually recreate them all but:

    1. It could not login because it was stripping the user name off the domain following @ character

    2. When trying to enter the user name pressing Shift turns on CapsLock and does not turn it back off although resets Shift to lower case on the keyboard.

    After several attempts of varying issues with the keyboard I finally locked myself out of the host, thank you very much.

    Did you even test this program before release?

  • Bad Import

    I have used 2x which is what Parallels bought. It was a great product and always worked. I downloaded the new Parallel’s app and it saw the old client and did an import. 90% of the 20+ servers in my app have no server name. If I have to rebuild everything from scratch, why bother with an import.
  • July & August Updates BROKEN

    The special keyboard keys do not work at all after updating to either of the 2 most recent versions. The only solution so far is downgrading to the Legacy app.
  • DON’T install this version!

    If you haven’t already updated to this version, avoid it. If you are using two-factor authentication this version is completely borked making it totally unusable.

    Parallels support know about the problem but there is no ETA on a resolution.

    Developer Response

    Hello, Thank you for your feedback. The issue with Multi-Factor Authentication was fixed in Parallels Client for iOS v16.5.0.20223 Please update Parallels Client to most recent version to get rid of this issue.
