Description of VMware Horizon Client

VMware Horizon Client for iOS makes it easy to work on your VMware Horizon virtual desktop and hosted applications from your iPhone or iPad, giving you on-the-go access from any location. IMPORTANT NOTE: A VMware Horizon virtual desktop or hosted application is required to use the VMware Horizon Client for iOS. Contact your IT department for further assistance. FEATURES: ENHANCED USER EXPERIENCE The VMware Blast Extreme protocol used with Horizon 7 is designed and optimized for mobile users. Blast Extreme leverages H.264 hardware decoding to deliver the best remote experience while reducing power consumption. LEAVE THE DESKTOP BEHIND WITH HOSTED APPLICATIONS VMware Horizon 6 and later supports hosted applications in addition to virtual desktops. With hosted applications, leave the desktop behind and run applications like local iOS apps. BEST OF BOTH WORLDS Unity Touch bridges the gap between your touch screen and your Windows applications. With Unity Touch, you can easily browse, search, and open Windows applications & files, choose favorite applications and files, and switch between running applications all without the Start Menu or Task Bar. WORK SMARTER With an external monitor or AirPlay, your iPhone or iPad display turns into a trackpad / keyboard while the external screen shows your VMware Horizon desktop. UNMATCHED PERFORMANCE The adaptive capabilities of the Blast Extreme and PCoIP display protocol make your virtual desktop fast and responsive regardless of whether you are connecting over your corporate WiFi network or over a cellular connection at a local café. SECURE FROM ANY LOCATION Whether you’re at your desk or away from the office, you’re always secure with VMware Horizon. Leverage smart card authentication with the Biometric Associates baiMobile 301MP smart card reader. Use the integrated RSA soft token for simpler access. SUPPORT: Individual users of the VMware Horizon Client for iOS should contact their internal IT help desk or visit http://www.vmware.com/go/view.

Reviews of VMware Horizon Client

  • why is it not treating iPad Pro + MKB like Mac??

    What a disappointing app that gets in its own way. When a keyboard + mouse are paired (such as the Magic Keyboard) why is not hiding the virtual keyboard bar at the bottom (which seemingly has a mind of its own popping up) and the touchscreen quick access circular button + left-side tab? These unnecessarily clutter the display and take away from the experience, especially when using a keyboard and mouse. Why is it not simply treating the iPad Pro + Keyboard and Mouse effectively the same as the Mac VMware Horizon Client? That’s what it should do. Hopefully with Broadcom’s acquisition, this disaster of an app is fixed.
  • Challenges and Suggestions

    I find working in the VM Horizon application to be challenging. The inability to drag or resize windows without moving the entire application is frustrating. Additionally, the persistent keyboard settings bar that obstructs the taskbar is bothersome, with no option to hide it. Despite attempting to use this application on my iPad, I cannot recommend it due to these issues. It feels like using this app is more of a time-waster than a productivity tool, and the adjustments required are not justified. I hope this feedback is taken into consideration, as I've been considering replacing my Dell tablet with my iPad for some time now. It would also be beneficial if there was a feature to lock oneself within the application, preventing accidental resizing when trying to close software within the VM
  • Horizon Client Great but Could be Better

    Horizon Client is great on macOS to allow me to connect to my Windows VDI for work, but on my M2 iPad the app still needs work. The keyboard on iPad OS doesn’t always appear for me to send an Ctrl-Alt-Del to login and I have to exit the app and reconnect. Moreover, once connected to my VDI on iPad, I cannot drag windows within Horizon Client (on my VDI). I do not know whether it is iPad OS intervening and thinking I want to drag the Horizon Client window or whether that is in Horizon Client’s domain to control? But, it is very annoying. I still rate Horizon Client app on my M2 iPad with 4 stars because it allows me to still enjoy my Apple devices all day even if I am relegated to work in Windows for work. 🙂
