I love it
I really like this app. Not a single flaw. (Not that I've found anyway). One suggestion that I would give is to use 3D Touch on the devices that have it so you don't have to lift your finger every time you click. I find myself sometimes pressing down instead of lifting and tapping because I'm so used to my laptop trackpad.
Another suggestion is to forward audio from the server to the client. Other than that, five out of five stars.Show lessMr. A Person
Free and excellent
I rarely write feedbacks about an app except it is very good or bad. Luckily, this app is the one I like very much. I was using Teamviewer to monitor some computers in my lab but I used it occasionally. But Teamsviewer now is not free at all, it asks me to buy a lot of time and restricts the time I can take a look at my devices. I would like to buy it but the price is high for a student like me. That was why I found out this app. It is really really nice. The way it works is a little bit different from Teamsviewer but it is worth to use it. I am happy with the app and strongly recommend if you are looking for an alternative of your old remote program. Thank the team for developing this app. I appreciate it.Show lessHoai Anh Ho
Fantastic!
This program is fantastic. I used pcAnywhere for many years, and this is so much easier and more reliable. It does everything that I need and more. It has allowed me to throw away the laptop and only use my iPad. It is a little more expensive than I originally understood due to the charge for the VNC server, but well worth it. 100% awesome!Show lessColePatrickThompson
Some minor issues
Sometimes, what I’m viewing on my phone will freeze and I’ll have to close the app and reopen it and connect. Also, if your desktop is in portrait mode rather than landscape, it will not come through. For some reason, that just doesn’t work. But, other than that, it’s great. I use use it everyday, quite a lot in fact. My office is upstairs but often I need access to my computer downstairs so rather than carry it around I just remotely access my computer with my iPhone. It’s much easier to work on google sheets or excel with this app than their own iPhone apps.Show lesshubayduben123
Not suitable for beginner but it will work
I have spent hours following many tutorials …I say I am a beginner but I do know the basics.
Ok…I figured it out…there needs to me more clarity on download page. One can be led to assume they are proceeding with the proper download and never realize the difference between the viewer download and the server. And the password issue again is just another example of lack of clarity. I can not justify giving this five stars as of right now. Part of an application is rated on the ability to instal.
I look forward to testing this app out more and possibly revisiting this review.Show lessInspiredthoughts
Fast and Easy Implementation
This is key when you have tons of computers to implement into your sphere of control. The viewer is fast and responsive. Being able to jump in on a computer from any of my devices is key providing the best service possible. Highly recommended that you try VNC first, it’s a no brained.billyghawaii
Great Support!
I was originally using Chrome Remote Desktop, as I was too stupid to use X11VNC. I have Arch Linux as my host, and as it being arch every Xfvb update would break Chrome Remote Desktop. I eventually gave up trying to fix this, and decided to finally go the VNC route. I was not disappointed. Before, CRD wouldn’t even register my ARROW KEYS. Now, in addition to the extra keyboard (a feature I will forever treasure) I have the full functionality of my computer at my fingertips. It is a game changer.
10/10 Would 100% recommendShow lessAdam Reisenauer
Love it, but it has a big bug…
There’s been a huge bug in this for a while, and it took me a while to be able to reproduce it. If you connect to a Mac (OS 11.4 although it’s been there for a few versions). Full screen app mode on a Mac works by assigning a desktop to the App, many full screen apps = many desktops. VncViewer locks out when switching between desktops. Steps to reproduce, open any two applications, TextEdit and Safari would be an example, but it doesn’t matter as long as they support full screen app mode, then just click from one app to the other using the icon on the bottom bar, it freezes and then you need to reconnect, it also happens when opening an application that was previously closed in full screen mode. Same problem, it’s switching to another desktop.Show lessChorltonDaDragon
So easy and convenient!
I can connect to my Mac and HP laptop so well with this app! It doesn’t require a strong connection. If on a Mac with Catalina or Big Sur, google how to use VNC with it because you have to give your Mac the ability to share its screen with VNC, but it’s just one button you press in settings to grant permission. Would recommend! It also worked for my raspberry PiShow lessGerm_27
Works great in a pinch
I have VNC server installed on a home computer that I access media from outside of the home. This works really well if I need to remote into my computer to fix something or move a folder around. I also have VNC viewer installed on my main computer and use that to access my home server computer instead of going down to the basement. The software is actually really easy to use, I don’t really know a lot about networking and things like that and I was able to figure it out. If you had a little keyboard and mouse connected to your phone you can get a lot done remotely, I just use the touch screen controls because I’m normally in and out, and they were great and are intuitive.Show lessBiggieMike527
