It works

Though right after i viewed my iPhone using my computer the computer cursor can’t move and multiple shutdowns didn’t work I would assume this means my computer is bricked now because I also have no external mouse the trackpad is enabled I was able to open settings without a mouse but it hasn’t moved and the cursor is conveniently ONLY visible when I open anydesk by using my phone to request a connect but the cursor doesn’t move but it’s a good remote software thank you anydesk

Free sessions getting shorter

Free sessions used to be an hour long. Little by little they have limit me and now it disconnects me every 15 minutes. Tried to “whitelist” my account as per their website but nothing has been fixed. There’s many free alternatives with no time limits such as RustDesk, and Teanviewer, so don’t give these greedy people your money.

Fraudster use it

Fraudster used it to get $$ from me.

Too easy for fraudsters to use

I had never heard of this until I became a victim of fraud. I’m a senior citizen and didn’t realize what was happening early in my encounter. I understand its usefulness among savvy tech people, but it is too easy for fraudsters to manipulate people like me.

価格改定、さようならAnyDesk

TeamViewerの値段が高くなってからの代替で長年使用してきましたが今年の価格改定でTeamViewerと大差なくなったので継続使用を諦めました。
個人使用で自宅/会社の複数のPC/Mac接続に使用してきましたが機能や品質に劣るAnyDeskを使い続けてきたのは比較的安価だったからです。カナ漢字変換について競合より数段使い難い、iPhoneからのリモート操作がし難いが挙げられます。手頃な価格でそれらをカバーしてきました。
今回の価格改定でそのアドバンテージは無くなりました。残念ですが…

Ótimo programa

Me serve muito bem

Excellent as a Dev

As a Developer with no portable laptop, this is the best when I need to leave across City, allows me to continue working for my testers and staff while not needing to tell them to wait 10-12 hours :D

Awesome software but option for sticky keyboard?

I’ve been wanting to use something like this for a long time. This is awesome! The one feature that would be cool to have is the option to have the keyboard show up almost as if it were sticky every time you open the app. Otherwise, this is phenomenal!

Lo peor de lo peor

No lo recomiendo

Just perfect

Perfect

Great

This make my job more easy

Good remote control, can't share clipboard

The app claims you can copy text from the phone to the computer, but it doesn't actually work.

Used by Amazon Scammers

I cannot rate the app as the only time I downloaded was due to people trying to scam me having had all access to my Amazon account including to send me an email with a code.
I realised my screen was sharing and deleted the app straight away. So I cannot really rate the product and i understand the app cannot be responsible for others misuse but I feel I have to leave a note for people coming to download the app after someone’s request. Be sure it’s not a scammer.

Careful with this app that will take your information and sell it

If you sign up for this, they will get your information and try to bill you for the following year. You didn’t even use this is trash

Scam

Hackers

Scammers App

This app got me banned from crypto ATM’s. Apparently scammers are using it heavily so use at your own risk.

Being used by Scammers

This app is being used by scammers to take control of your devices and transfer money out of your account. BEWARE

SCAM DO NOT USE!!!!!

Similar to other reviews I was phoned by someone claiming to work for Amazon. AMAZON CONFIRMED THEY DO NOT WORK WITH THIS APP & THAT THEY ARE SCAMMERS. They then very persuasively asked me to download this app (which I now this was to hack my phone to get my bank details). This was a big red flag for me in which I then hung up the phone. DO NOT DOWNLOAD.

Scammers choice

Do not download this app if asked to by anyone over the course of a phone call.
I pride myself on being pretty sharpe at spotting a scam but I was nearly taken in today by an elaborate multi layered scam from an Indian call Centre group claiming to be from Amazon.
True enough - my Amazon account had been hacked and there was true enough, £4k worth of iPhones in my Amazon basket, and true enough the callers could name all of my past Amazon purchases/ returns from to w past month and could email me and text me verification codes seemingly from Amazon.co.uk bona fide accounts.
They genuinely spooked me and nearly- I say nearly -convinced me to download THIS app and give them my ‘compromised’ IP address too so that they could ‘solve ‘ the issue.
How kind… how considerate..
Then - finally- the penny droppped! I realised the Amazon hack was a red herring to panic me into giving them complete control of my device and every single password stored in my phone and every single aspect of my online existence!

I explained that I was insulted that they had nearly conned me. Swines. I politely asked them to give up their elaborate scamming of gullible, debt laden westerners and finest some honest gainful employment instead.
We parted amicably..

Swerve this app people. Stay safe. Avoid these elaborate scammers and confidence men..
