  • Excellent app

    This is a great and stable app that I’ve used for years. Just one thing - the screen is not maximised for the iPad Pro 11 inch 2nd generation yet.

    Update: Is there any update on the screen optimisation for the iPad Pro 11 inch? Thanks.

    Developer Response

    Thank you very much for your review. One of the next updates will add support for iPad Pro :-)
  • Very poor app on iPhone 13 Pro Max

    Please fix this app for new iPhones… an update hasn’t come out for 3+ years. The app does not account for the notch!

    We are late, we know. An update is coming. The reason it's late is that the upcoming version 8 for desktop took more time than initially expected (and it includes some very cool features!!) The good news is that we plan to release the new version for mobile just after we release version 8 for desktop.
  • Needs improvement

    I’ve been testing this for a few weeks and the verdict is that it’s not stable/reliable enough.

    I regularly have issues reconnecting to a machine (blank screen). I end up needing to fallback to my old tools to login and restart the service on the remote machine.

    Way too many clicks to switch between monitors.

    Remote cursor lags like crazy (both devices on same wired LAN) and is difficult to see.

  • Works out of the box

    First Linux Remote Desktop I tried that just.. *worked*

    No tedious configuring needed, NoMachine self configures and properly works from IOS to Linux.

    Thanks for the 5 stars Ethorbit! Keep nomachining!
  • Improper Aspect Ratio on iPad Mini 6

    NoMachine works great and offers much better performance than VNC when I connect to my Linux box. However, on iPad Mini 6, the aspect ratio is ‘hard coded’ to be 4:3 and doesn’t allow the aspect ratio of 1.523:1 that is the iPad Mini 6 screen. I hope there will be an update soon to fix this.

    The issue (nomachine.com/TR03Q09200) is well known and the fix is available, we just need to release it along with all the other major improvements and fixes. We are late, we know. The reason is that the upcoming version 8 for desktop took more time than initially expected. The good news is that we plan to release the new version for mobile just after we release version 8 for desktop.
  • Love it but No iPados native

    Sessions don't fill the screen on new iPad Mini's for that I can't give 4 stars otherwise the best vnc/ard alternative avail for Macos

    Hi, thanks for your feedback. The next release (version 8) which we know is late will provide a much improved experience for all iOS users, then you will tell us if we deserve another star ;-)
  • Just Works

    Excellent app. Handles all sorts of resolutions nicely and the keyboard is excellent.
  • Great App

    Currently using it for quick checks my 3 home machines. One Window, one Mac and one Linux all from my iPad. Works great for all 3! Lots of help and options. Desktop clarity is better than some of the commercial products I tried. Definitely recommend this product. Easy to set up and NO account creation required on a 3rd party server first!

    Hi! Thanks so much for your kind words and 5 stars!!! Keep nomachining!
  • Only two minor issues:-

    Mouse buttons only partially work with Fedora server
    When using Blender remotely from ipad it would be great to be able to have better display matching.
    However this app works really well and is very reliable, thank you.
    P.S. Teamviewer mouse isn't perfect but worth looking at how it works, also the file transfers.

    Hi, thank you for submitting your feedback. Can you contact us via our website so we can investigate better the issue of display matching? We would need to have more details :-)
  • Almost Perfect

    I’ve been using NX on my desktop for quite some time and I’ve always been pleased with the performance and ease of use. The iPad app offers the same experience with only one drawback: Audio Streaming to my Bluetooth headset doesn’t seem to work! Instead, it will default to playing through the speakers (on my iPad Pro 11). Not a huge deal, but that’s the only thing keeping me from giving it a 5-star rating. I hope to see this addressed in a future update.
