### 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.

### 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. Thanks!!

### 2/5 — Not that great

*2025-06-17*

If you’re like me, you were hoping to use this space client in conjunction with Proxmox. Sadly while it does connect the mouse functionality does not work well and there are not any settings to mess around with to correct which is makes it pretty much un-usable. Was really hoping this would be a valid solution.

**Developer response:** There is a Proxmox bug that I experienced myself with the mouse. Go into Options for your VM and disable and then re-enable the "Use Tablet for pointer" option.

Hello, I wish you had gotten in touch before posting this review. Also, i have a feeling that you've refunded and uninstalled the app and I'm just talking to a wall, but such is life...

### 4/5 — Seems good so far.

*2025-01-23*

I tried a few options through homebrew but they didn’t seem to work. This seems to have done the trick for accessing my PVE VMs via spice.

**Developer response:** Hey, thanks for reaching out! How do we make our experience 5-stars?

I tried a few options through homebrew but they didn’t seem to work. This seems to have done the trick for accessing my PVE VMs via spice.

**Developer response:** Hey, thanks for reaching out! Don't hesitate to send us feature requests via the Report Bug functionality within the app. Also, pointer integration is coming in version 44.

### 5/5 — Great application

*2024-05-10*

Assists me on getting into my VirtualBox machines remotely

### 3/5 — rough

*2024-04-18*

interface is clunky and takes experiementation to figure out how to configure.   Leaving this a three as I figure out how to connect to a server.   I can get to a login screen but keyboard just sounds beep when trying to type (havent figured a way to activate keyboard in window 

edit:  i am more than willing to help test a version for MacOS to that fixes the keyboard problem.   The video and mouse works perfectly, even clipboard.

**Developer response:** I would really appreciate a more civil approach to support requests. I'm making an effort to respond to your questions and all i get back is silence.

EDIT: How can we make your experience 5-stars?

**Developer response:** Hi there, weldong.

Thanks for getting in touch. You can always get your money back on the App Store! Please follow the instructions on: https://support.apple.com/en-ca/118223. 

Please reach out to support _at_ morpheusly _dot_ com for help, as there is a lot that we can help you with, including giving away the app for free. My intention is not to stick users with software that doesn't work for them but to have each and every user happy with what they have.

Thanks for your feedback and looking forward to your response!

### 5/5 — Easy to use

*2023-11-30*

Can not find an easier way to use iPad with computer

### 5/5 — More Free (as in freedom) Software Please!

*2023-11-16*

I am incredibly happy with this app purchase and incredibly thankful to the developer for releasing libre software on a platform where you don’t often see such products. It has been incredibly useful for accessing my PVE cluster on the go, and supports the trackpad and keyboard for my iPad beautifully. The only remote desktop app that worked as well as this was the microsoft rdp client, but that’s proprietary garbage spyware. There are many such apps on the app store and I recommend avoiding them in favor of independent developers, contributing to the FOSS community.

**Developer response:** Thank you!

### 1/5 — Crashes constantly on M2 Max MBP

*2026-04-13*

Avoid this app. Does not work at all, crashes randomly when using. 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!

### 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

### 1/5 — What the ...

*2025-02-20*

How can you release a remote console app that does not even let you send Alt-Ctl-Del for windows guests, not fit for purpose.

**Developer response:** For everybody else who reads this review that will never be revised...
You can send Ctrl-Alt-Delete with the on-screen keys if you are an iPhone / iPad or other i-device.

On  Macs, there is a dedicated button for it in the menu as well.

Great feedback, though, amazing to the original poster who will never reply.

### 1/5 — doesn’t work with proxmox and spice client

*2023-12-09*

German & english

Leider bekomme ich keinerlei Verbindung zu meiner VM, welche auf meinem Proxmox Server läuft. Es gibt keinerlei Anleitung sowohl in der App als auch im Internet zu finden.
Die App hat Proxmox im Namen stehen aber es gibt nicht die Möglichkeit einen Benutzernamen anzugeben um mit dem Proxmox Server eine Verbindung herzustellen.
Eine Anleitung wäre bei diesem Preis das mindeste. Da Video zeigt leider rein garnichts was die Konfiguration angeht. In dem verlinkten Forum gibt es ebenfalls keine Anleitung. Um etwas schreiben zu können braucht man ein extra Google Konto. Für mich unverständlich warum es keine Hilfe per E-Mail gibt. Für eine solch teure App für mich wirklich schlecht und schade, da ich auch keinerlei Alternative gefunden habe.

——————————————————————-

English

Unfortunately, I can't connect to my VM running on my Proxmox server. There are no instructions either in the app or on the internet.
The app has Proxmox in the name but there is no possibility to enter a user name to connect to the Proxmox server.
At this price, instructions would be the minimum. Unfortunately, the video shows nothing at all in terms of configuration. There are also no instructions in the linked forum. You need an extra Google account to be able to write anything. I can't understand why there is no help by email. For such an expensive app, this is really bad for me and a pity, as I have not found any alternative.

**Developer response:** Amazing, detailed and inaccurate feedback, thanks! :)

### 1/5 — This pure garbage

*2023-09-29*

I can’t believe this is even exist, I have to use this because there is no other option, but I’m gonna develop another one which will be free

**Developer response:** Hi there, following up on your 1-star review from a while ago. I've made many improvements to the app since you wrote it - have you been using it? Are you able to provide any meaningful, actionable feedback on the app? There is no way to make an app better without specific feature requests, so you're not going to get any improvements without reaching out to us. Our email is support _at_ morpheusly _dot_ com, and we'd love to hear from you.

I'm sorry I wasn't able to meet your expectations, I am sure you've refunded the app already, but if you haven't and want a refund, I'm happy to give one.

### 1/5 — Really Bad

*2023-07-21*

It's really bad and way overpriced. There should at least be a free version like on Android to try it first. Such a shame iOS is so limited. It also looks exactly the same as his $9.99 RDP app, quite sketchy developer. It doesn't even have all the features it claims to have.

**Developer response:** The app is actually really, really good, you've not appreciated it sufficiently ;)

Jokes aside, great feedback! It's important to consider carefully the pricing of a donation for free open-source software ;)

### 1/5 — Poor documentation, buggy and difficult user interface

*2022-11-21*

Very hard to use. Flaky. No documentation. UI does not conform.

**Developer response:** I would really appreciate a more civil approach to support requests. I'm making an effort to respond to your questions and all i get back is silence.

If you have a chance to retest, we would love to hear your updated feedback here, on the forum or the bug tracker. Thanks in advance!

### 1/5 — Not usable

*2022-08-21*

Signifigantly slower than the existing xquartz implementation. Missing very basic features like automatic window resizing.

### 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!

### 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.

### 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!!

### 5/5 — Does what my Server’s Spice Web interface cannot!

*2025-08-28*

I’m using this to connect with my TrueNAS VMs which now uses Spice.   

The issue was that the Spice Web Interface didn’t seem to be handing over my credentials properly, so QEMU was refusing the connection seemingly at random.   

Someone tipped me off about aSpice Pro so I gave it a shot and it’s much more reliable than connecting through my web browser.   This completely solves my issues,  so thank you for creating this app.

**Developer response:** Thanks for making me aware of this new use-case, this is amazing!

### 5/5 — Works!

*2025-06-11*

This worked well for me. I was looking for a way to view a Proxmox Virtual Machine window *including sound* on my Mac. The time saved in setting up a more complex solution justified the cost for me.

It would be great to add support for window resizing, like moving from the console to an X11 window.

### 5/5 — Works, Easy to use

*2025-05-27*

Came over to Mac from PC.  Always used Spice agent for Windows to access Proxmox servers.  This was an easy install and just use application.  Overall performance  is a bit less than Windows, but works well.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback, and I'm glad you're happy with aSPICE Pro.

I hope other happy users share their positive experiences.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2025-05-12*

Great app with regular updates. Well worth the price!

**Developer response:** Thank you kindly. I wish more of our happy users would post their positive experiences with the app!

### 5/5 — Good

*2024-12-17*

Good app except remote sound does not play on device and input does not always map correctly.

**Developer response:** Please reach out by email (see the Help menu in the app) with details on what doesn't work. Thanks!

### 5/5 — Does what it says - works great.

*2024-06-04*

So I've been using this to connect to Proxmox containers and VMs and it worked instantly out-of-the-box without me configuring anything, it's way better than the browser-based remote console. Config is there if you need it, although the UI is spartan.

### 5/5 — Nice work

*2024-05-29*

Great app, updated often with fixes. And arm version would be perfect.

**Developer response:** As it turned out, the the "Designed for iPad" version is available only in Beta. If you'd like access to it, please get in touch by emailing support _at_ morpheusly _dot_ com and I'll add you to our Beta to get access to it.

### 5/5 — Works great with Windows 11 guest and Proxmox VE

*2024-05-26*

Works as intended and I am using it regularly to connect to my Windows guests.
