Libvirt/Qemu KVM - If your mouse pointer is not in sync with where you tap, you may need to add an "EvTouch USB Graphics Tablet" to your virtual machine (when it's powered off) and then power it on. To add the Tablet: - If configuring through virt-manager, Go to the View->Details section, and select Add Hardware->Input->EvTouch USB Graphics Tablet. - If running your virtual machine on the command-line, you need an option similar to: "-device usb-tablet,id=input0" aSPICE is a secure, SSH capable, open source SPICE protocol client that makes use of the LGPL licensed native libspice library.

Very frustrating. **Developer response:** Hey, thanks for the feedback - it would have been much better if you joined our Beta and submitted a few crashes so we can track them down. This way, it's a needle in a haystack and all the other users who may be impacted are left without your input and our help. We cannot reproduce these crashes locally, and as a result we need users whose setup has the particular magic combination of factors to help report and submit stack traces of the crashes. The only way is through App Store Beta. If you're willing, please send us an email at support@morpheusly.com and we'll give you the app for free so you can submit a few crashes for analysis. Thank you! ### 5/5 — Sehr guter Spice Client *2026-03-27* Bin gerade dabei von Hyper-V auf Proxymox umzusteigen und war auf der Suche nach einem SPICE Client für macOS. (Apple Silicon). Die App hier tut genau was sie soll und funktioniert. Desktop Resize, Clipboard, Mousetracking,… funktioniert soweit tadellos. Es wäre super, wenn noch USB funktionieren würde und die Nutzung der Tastaturlayouts - ohne Konfiguration - einfach durchgereicht werden würde. Aber damit kann zumindest ich leben. **Developer response:** We are currently trying to get the right entitlements from Apple for our account, hopefully they grant them and we can provide USB passthrough in the future. For Keyboard layouts, it is a good idea to detect the layout of the local machine, but because the layout in settings really refers to the remote machine layout, it may still not function correctly. It's a tough issue to solve, but thanks for your feedback, we will think on it. ### 2/5 — PB clavier *2026-03-05* Le w et le z **Developer response:** Hi Nicolas! Since your review is from France, I assume you're writing in to let us know of an issue with typing W and Z in French layout, and since the review is for the MacOS app, I assume your issue is on MacOS. You need to set the keyboard layout to French (France) in three places: - Your Mac - The app settings - The remote Virtual machine If you experience issues with the above setup, please do email us your concerns at support@morpheusly.com. Thanks! ### 1/5 — Unfortunately, it's not working well. *2026-02-20* Unfortunately, the app is not stable. Proxmox server stored. When I click on the configured server, the app crashes. **Developer response:** Hi Wodenas, We're sorry the app is misbehaving for you. If you join the app Beta, you'll be able to submit the crash reports to us directly and we will fix them for you. We'll even give you the app for free if you do. Please do not hesitate to email us at support@morpheusly.com for help. ### 1/5 — Keyboard Language *2026-02-02* Leider nützt das Einstellen der Sprache der Tastatur nix. Im Gast kommt immer englisch an. Das passiert bei NoVNC nicht. Dort wird die Tastatur korrekt genutzt. Das ist nicht nur für Sonderzeichen doof, auch bei dem y/z Tausch, wird man auf Dauer verrückt.. **Developer response:** EDIT2, please see my update: For keyboard layout to work (I confirmed it works for German Layout), you need the following conditions to be met: 1) Set your MacOS keyboard to German QWERTZ 2) Edit your connection and select German layout for this connection (or edit default settings if using a .vv file and select German) 3) In your remote Windows virtual machine, assuming it's Windows, select DEU for German layout. If those 3 conditions are not met, nothing will work with the current version. As an aside, we keep conversing in the review, and we get no updates that you changed anything. As a result, it's total blind luck that we see your updated review. This is an issue with the Apple Review system. If you want improvements to the app, it's not easy for us to discuss them in a review format. Please send us email at support@morpheusly.com so we can discuss directly and tell you when we have fixes that we would like for you to test. Previous discussions retained for history... 1) The pointer shape now matches the remote pointer for a year or so. 2) To connect to more than one computer on MacOS, if you have two .vv files: open -n -a aSPICE.app ~/Downloads/FILE1.vv open -n -a aSPICE.app ~/Downloads/FILE2.vv ### 3/5 — Ui has to be improved *2026-01-21* The app works but the interface is very bad. For example the Text in the settings is on top of itself there are random white and black bars. Very weak for the price. **Developer response:** EDIT: How do your find the updated interface? Thanks in advance for any updated feedback! The current version in production, 58, has all the issues you called out fixed. Could you please let us know if you're happy now? Thanks! ### 3/5 — Functional *2026-01-19* The overall experience leaves something to be desired, virt-viewer under Linux feels better. I purchased this because remote-viewer via brew feels clunky. I have webauthn set up for my lab and it isn’t supported. **Developer response:** Hello, thanks for reaching out! We'd love to hear your feedback on how the UI can be improved. Indeed, you have called out precisely why we decided to put together this open source project - virt-viewer through brew has way too many dependencies not native to the Apple UI. We tried looking up webauthn, and it's not something that is supported by virt-viewer either. As this sounds like a brand new feature request, we would need to have more details about how things are set up and to see if other people are requesting the same feature. This can only be accomplished if the feature were opened on our issue tracker. You can use the Help->Report Bug link in the app to create the feature request. Thanks! ### 4/5 — Needs Middle Button Mouseclicks *2025-12-14* 4 stars will become 5 stars when middle mouse events passthrough to proxmox via spice; also implement clipboard support; finally the aSpice menu option on mac toolbar should show a Quit option under aSpice as it is now blank **Developer response:** Hi, thanks for reaching out! Could you please email us (click the Help menu in the app) to send us a screenshot of the Mac Toolbar that is blank? Clipboard integration *should* work, just retested it with a direct SPICE connection where I know the server supports it. Make sure your Proxmox VM is set up to allow clipboard integration. The mouse, honestly, I didn't even think about middle mouse button because I didn't even think the Mac is capable of detecting middle mouse buttons - the programming interface certainly didn't suggest this as even a remote option. I'll look again and see if it's possible. Please do reach out about the menu option that's blank. ### 5/5 — Great Application! *2025-12-05* Can only recommend best option for spice usage on macos in my opinion. Thanks for the great Work totally worth the price and keep going! **Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback!! ### 3/5 — Quick setup, stable *2025-11-26* UI seems to be Touch based, had some issues with Gnome when moving the cursor, Gnome would interpret as a 3 finger swipe up or something. Mainly got it for Copy/Paste for some generated passwords and on the second day of use, Copy/Paste stopped working. I’ll just use a VM or a homebrew option. **Developer response:** Hey, sorry to hear you're not happy with the app. We would love to actually diagnose and fix those issues for you, and because this project is actually FOSS and the version on the App Store is there for donation purposes, I don't expect people for whom the project doesn't work right to pay for it. If you haven't refunded the app yet, please do so (or get in touch by email from the Help link for instructions). We'll send you a free app code so you can install the app and keep giving us direct feedback for improvements.
