What's New in Remote Utilities

14.3.0

October 23, 2026

New: Terminal mode. A command line on the remote computer, right on your phone or tablet. Works with Host for Windows 7.9 and later (Command Prompt, PowerShell) and with Host for Linux and macOS 2.1.1 and later (the shells installed on the computer). Choose the shell and the user context (System or the logged-on user). A key bar above the keyboard adds Esc, Tab, Ctrl, Alt and the arrow keys; the output history scrolls, text can be selected, copied and pasted, and the text size changes with a pinch. Terminal is available in the connection mode menu, as the default tap action and from the session toolbar. Also in this version: - Fixed: in a synced address book, a password saved after it had been changed on the Host was requested again at the next connection. - After an automatic reconnection the session restores the previous zoom and screen position. - iOS 27: fixed the missing edit menu (Paste, Copy, Cut, Select) in text fields, including the password prompt. - File Transfer: a file that the Host cannot provide is skipped with a message and the remaining files are copied. A message is shown when the Host denies access to a folder. - Clipboard: text copied while the app was in the background is sent to the Host when you return to the session; HTML content from a Host for Windows is now transferred correctly. - Fixed: the connection thumbnail was not updated after a session. - Improved compatibility with Hosts of version 7.2 and older. - Help: new Terminal and Clipboard sections in all 24 languages. Interface translations updated. - Minor fixes and improvements. Requires iOS 18 or later.

No longer supports older versions of Mack

Oh I love how you fix macOS Mojave Big Sur Catalina Monterey host bugs by completely dropping support for all of them instead of actually fixing the app.
We don’t find out that surprise feature until after your installer successfully installs onto older versions of macOS and then surprises us with a message saying you need Ventura to actually run the application.

Thanks a lot for all of us that can’t use screen sharing because Apple won’t provide a patch, you were our last hope.

Meanwhile you support windows all the way back to XP, really?

Response from developer

We are sorry for the inconvenience this caused. The update replaced the old app with a completely new application, and the old app's saved connections use an incompatible format, so they could not be carried over automatically — this is a known limitation of the transition, noted in the first line of the What's New section, not a defect. Instead of re-adding every computer by hand, you can import your desktop Remote Utilities address book file directly into the new app. Thank you for posting the recovery steps for other users, and for still giving the new app a measured rating despite the trouble — we know there is room to improve.

Happy with new version but…

I was initially very excited to see at last this new release! What has left me deflated is not finding where “server PIN” can be entered. Furthermore, I cannot connect to any of the hosts I have in my self hosted RU server (I can connect to the RU self hosted server) while I am able to connect using my laptop and the Remote Utilites viewer app (Windows) without issue while on the same network as my iOS device. Maybe I’m missing something..
UPDATE

I am seeing the app trying to connect to id72.remote utilities.com which is very concerning as I did not ask it to and am now concerned the credentials I use on my self hosted server are being transmitted to your public hosted RU server…

New update is definitely better despite the snafu

Despite the need to re-add all your clients because some of us don’t have the desktop version The new interface is definitely better.

Trying to install the macOS version for Mojave and it fails to work, it immediately crashes or displays a message that it needs updated. Your website says it supports Mojave

You can still see your old ID numbers when you connect your device to the computer and then go to finder device backups and files and then Remote Utilities you’ll find a file name connections xml
Unfortunately the passwords will have to be re-entered.

Once you have one device configured properly to transfer all that to another device download imazing and use a free version and bank up the app that’s working on the one device and then use the app restore feature to put it on another device and follow the instructions and the Amo transfer all the connections over including the passwords.

Doesn’t function with an iPad

I’m on an iPad and I can’t get apps like excel to open, the track pad that works with the iPad doesn’t work with the program. Not a viable option.
