It works fine with my gen9 iPad and android phone. But for my older iPad it connects and immediately disconnects. Three stars because I can still connect using my pc IP address (until it changes). ### 4/5 — La versión 3 *2026-03-06, version 3.8.0.6* Funciona bien. Lo único que no he conseguidido, porque nomse si es un tema hard es despertar las máquinas de forma remota ### 2/5 — screen freezes every 10~40 minutes *2026-02-01, version 3.7.6.0* I reinstslled streamer, replaced ipad with newest one, updated its OS, waited for maintanence, still no fix. when screen freezes only sound plays on still image so I have to close the app and restart ### 2/5 — Sài không ổn định trên ipad dù đã mua gói năm anywhere *2026-01-08, version 3.7.6.0* Bị reconnect tầm 5p một lần trên ipad khi sử dụng ipad dù đã mua gói năm anywhere, khá bất tiện cho việc sử dụng, cần cải thiện thêm. ### 4/5 — It works very well most of the time *2025-12-12, version 3.7.6.0* I use the free version at home. This is very helpful at home when I want to compare things on two machines in separate rooms, etc. But occasionally the service on the remote machine stops running and then the connection fails. The message that comes up implies that you need to upgrade to the business version. The actual solution is to go to the remote machine and restart the splashtop service. ### 2/5 — Love yet hate *2025-10-09, version 3.7.6.0* It’s always screaming it can’t connect connect because it’s on the same network, there’s only one network! I can only fix it by restarting both devices but when it works I love it. ### 4/5 — Good *2025-09-12, version 3.7.6.0* Need to hv Apple Pencil support, so that I can draw too. reconnecting and logging in takes time. This app too should hv some files transfer option drag n drop. Also would love if I can use camera and mic of iPad for my pc. But these are just wishful thinking love the app otherwise ### 3/5 — OTTIMA MA…. *2025-08-18, version 3.7.6.0* App utilissima ottima con iPad ma da Mac non riesco a fare il click destro del mouse ho cercato online dicono di utilizzare tasto control ma non funziona, questa cosa limita molto l’utilizzo, su IPAD invece funziona ### 1/5 — Basura *2025-02-18, version 3.6.6.2* No entiendo cómo es que Apple permite este tipo de aplicaciones. Se debe revisar el funcionamiento correcto y que al menos entreguen una función de todas las que prometen. No la instalen. Es una perdida de tiempo. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Too Laggy. Not worth the purchase *2026-06-26, version 3.8.4.4* Too slow and complicated. Definite not a good fit for iPad to Mac ### 1/5 — Not working anymore *2026-05-01, version 3.8.0.6* This worked a couple of years ago but now it doesn’t. May be because my iMac is getting old.- 10.15. But nowhere in the App Store does it say it’s limited. ### 1/5 — Botón secundario no funciona *2026-04-09, version 3.8.0.6* Desde la Mac, al acceder a una PC, no logro enviar al acción de botón secundario, no con el TRackPad, ni con un ratón. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work anymore *2025-12-16, version 3.7.6.0* Stopped working fully ### 1/5 — IPAD accessing Win 10 PC at work. *2025-12-07, version 3.7.6.0* The keyboard does not fully work no matter what Splashtop Keyboard setting I use. Some of the issues when Apple Keyboard setting is used: Alt-Tab only toggles between last 2 screens, keyboard gets stuck in upper case at time, keyboard gives weird characters such as putting a CTL-Chararcter (^) before a keystroke, and actions like a tap on a push button give spurious results. With the Splashtop PC Keyboard setting the biggest issue is that I lose the ability to hold a key down and have the character or arrow key cursor repeat on the screen. ### 1/5 — Always an error *2025-08-27, version 3.7.6.0* Never connects no matter what I do. ### 1/5 — Unusable *2025-06-22, version 3.6.6.2* Displays fine but click to drag doesn’t work. ### 1/5 — Unusable *2025-05-27, version 3.6.6.2* I have used this in the past and it use to be the gold standard offering smooth framerates wherever I’m connecting. After a few years of not using it, I had the need again and loaded it up expecting it to be great. Unfortunately that wasn’t the case. Everything is extremely stuttering to the point of being unusable. There are other options now that are better. I won’t turn this into a promo for those other ones, but I can tell you honestly not to subscribe to this. You’ll end up canceling it almost immediately. Sorry. Splashtop did reach out asking me to make sure everything was up to date, and the truth is everything is up to date, and the software is still not functional. ### 1/5 — Unusable *2025-04-12, version 3.6.6.2* I have used this in the past and it use to be the gold standard offering smooth framerates wherever I’m connecting.

Sorry. ### 1/5 — Geht nicht *2025-04-07, version 3.6.6.2* So eine müll app die spiegelt nur den screen ist aber nicht in der late den 2. Desktop zu spiegeln ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Must try *2026-08-03, version 3.8.4.6* I am using this app around 9 years it is very useful ### 5/5 — Good for a free temporary wireless monitor replacement *2026-05-18, version 3.8.0.6* I got this app after I broke the screen on my laptop, and it is free, easy to use, and works for when I need to use my laptop on the go. It is a little laggy, though (at least the free version is), so I wouldn’t recommend this as a permanent fix unless you have some patience. ### 5/5 — A Hidden Jewel *2026-03-04, version 3.8.0.6* I almost don’t want to leave a review because others might catch on to this. I do use Zoom for meetings and have used Team viewer in the past. Splashtop Personal has indeed helped me so much access my devices remotely and I’ve used it for over a couple of years now. My primary use is mostly from Pc to Pc because from Mobile to PC the controls are hard to handle, that’s only on emergency to view things. The price is ridiculously affordable, nothing comparable to Zoom or Teamviewer. The only one review I saw says “duped into buying a new subscription on purpose”…personally, if they offered a 5 year subscription where I can lock in the $17 a year price, I’d get it in a heart beat. Offer me a discount and I’d go for the 10 year! Hint hint ;) ### 5/5 — Top *2026-01-31, version 3.7.6.0* Application dont je me sers depuis plus de 15 ans, elle est juste incroyable. ### 5/5 — 참 좋아요. 사용 15년 이상 사용자 *2026-01-19, version 3.7.6.0* 퍼스널 버전을 사용중인데요. 서비스도 좋고요. 품질도 우수하구요. 원격지에서 지금도 집 컴퓨터 시스템을 편하게 제어하여 플러그인 제작중입니다. ^^ ### 5/5 — Finally, I can stop checking out remote desktop apps! *2026-01-17, version 3.7.6.0* This one is the only one I need. It does a better job than the others at getting around my firewalls and routers and at a fraction of the cost of some apps. I love this and it’s worth every penny!!! ### 5/5 — Great for remote gaming *2025-10-02, version 3.7.6.0* I use this to play train simulator classic on my iPad, works great. ### 5/5 — Tro bien *2025-04-24, version 3.6.6.2* S’ai tro bien se truque ### 5/5 — Easy to set up *2025-03-31, version 3.6.6.2* I have used Splashtop for several weeks now. Other than the app needing to update by re installing the app, the amount of screen space your desktop takes up on the iPad has increased in the new version. I play video games off this app and I have no problems. I can access both my monitors with easy. I highly recommend this app if you want to use your computer on the go. ### 5/5 — Smooth connection *2025-01-29, version 3.6.6.2* So far so good. Great price for value.
