### 2/5 — Connection constantly gets blocked over and over again.

*2026-07-17, version 15.77.1*

I’ve been using this app since 2022 for personal use, and it has been working well up until now. I just came home from a 5-day trip today, and I was using Teamviewer so I can get some work done while on my trip. Let’s just say, it was an absolute nightmare. When I first tried to connect to my laptop from my phone, it kept loading for eternity until the loading screen just disappeared with the text “Login cancelled” with no further explanation. So, I tried again, and again, and again; every single time, it just stopped loading and wouldn’t connect. That is, until a few attempts later, it just blocked me with the popup saying “Unable to connect. A connection could not be established. Connection blocked.” It was extremely frustrating, but after 30-60 minutes of trying over, and over, and over again, I was eventually able to get in, but it LITERALLY felt like I was playing the damn lottery just trying to do so. Overall, I could barely get any work done while on my trip due to this pathetic excuse of an app, and honestly, giving this two stars is a bit generous but it was only because it worked flawlessly for the first 4 years of me using it; otherwise, I would’ve given this one star.

### 2/5 — Endless Captcha to fill in

*2026-07-12, version 15.77.1*

Trying to login to the reciprocal MacBook version and its presents never ending Captchas to fill in even though I’m selecting the correct photos. Some are extremely grainy too which is not accessibility friendly. This is the end of team viewer for me. Deleted on MacBook and iPad.

### 3/5 — Trop court

*2026-07-10*

5 min c’est vraiment plate, on n’a pas le temps de rien faire

### 5/5 — AMAZING!

*2026-07-02, version 15.77.1*

This is a reallyyy good app! I been using my phone as a drawing tablet for a long time thanks to itt! It’s actually really easy to use and easy to connect to my computer!

### 4/5 — Finally

*2026-07-01, version 15.77.1*

Finally after a week I got thru without kicked off. Completed it successfully A+

### 5/5 — 非常に助かります

*2026-07-01, version 15.77.1*

事情により会社に出社出来なく
仕事で必要なファイルを確認できるるのは、とてもたすかります
個人的にな利用に限定して使っています

### 1/5 — Terrible Experience for Personal Use

*2026-06-29, version 15.77.1*

I rarely use TV, and only use it for personal reasons. My account has been repeatedly flagged as commercial use, which blocks me from using the app. Looking online, there are thousands of users with the same issue. TV has removed any options for free users to submit a ticket or contact them in any way. 
Why would I want to upgrade to a paid account when the free account is such a bad experience?

### 1/5 — Overly complicated buggy

*2026-06-28, version 15.77.1*

Didn’t work after 15 minute set up. Waste of time.

### 5/5 — Bien

*2026-06-27, version 15.77.1*

Muy bueno

### 1/5 — Can’t use longer than 1 minute

*2026-06-26, version 15.77.1*

I didn’t even use this app for a month, and I only launched for 1 minute, then it says“You reached the maximum session duration to this TeamViewer ID. Please try again later.” I only have one device, not for commercial use!!!

### 1/5 — Buggy at the worst times

*2026-08-18, version 15.80.2*

Perfect remote access option if you need a laggy, inconsistent access that regularly takes away your ability to click, forcing you to run powershell commands to force windows to simulate a click on the other end just to accomplish basic tasks.

### 1/5 — Cheap Indian SHT

*2026-08-14, version 15.80.2*

Cheap indian SHT

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2026-08-12, version 15.80.2*

Imagine paying a subscription of $200 and you cannot connect to your remote computer and customer support refuses to help.

### 1/5 — Can’t use app to remote into oPC

*2026-08-06, version 15.80.1*

Can’t use this app to remote into my own PC that’s logged into the same TeamViewer account. This app only works as a support app where the other end someone is there to provide ID/PW every time.

### 1/5 — Trash

*2026-08-05, version 15.80.1*

Shows device online on desktop version but not mobile
Garbage app

### 1/5 — Update has caused video Stream glitch Issue

*2026-08-01, version 15.80.1*

All was working fine until the app updated recently. When in remote into any machine. Videos seem to jump to the other side leaving the frozen video in the middle and a live video randomly placed to the left. Try this with YouTube shorts or similar. Tested on 4 windows 10 machines from 2 different iPhones. None display correct any more. I have an iPad with older version of app and this works fine still. As does my android on the latest version. Just seems to be an issue with this latest iOS release 15.80.321. Reached out to support on Twitter/X but they can’t help. Hopefully dev team will see this and if anyone else having issue write a review too. Thanks.

### 1/5 — Unusable with an external mouse

*2026-07-31, version 15.80.1*

This app is a zero star app. If using an external mouse, there are several missed clicks, and scrolling does not function. It’s terrible. I’ve resorted to using Jump Desktop which i use to connect to a PC which I then use TeamViewer to connect to remote computers.

### 1/5 — Bad bad bad

*2026-07-26, version 15.77.1*

Very bad bad very very bad bad bad

### 1/5 — Please fix the battery issue

*2026-07-09, version 15.77.1*

So this app is great but if you close the app it should exit the session in a few minutes but instead it holds the connection open and destroys your battery.  I can have 100% battery down to 9% in a couple hours if I don’t force close the app

### 1/5 — Can’t get rid of windows rating screen

*2026-07-02*

This is ruining my user experience

saves me at work, saves me on vacation, saves me anytime anywhere I love you team viewer, you should add a donation box

### 5/5 — Works great

*2026-08-12, version 15.80.2*

I use it to monitor my farm animal computer. 
It works great.

### 5/5 — Complet, Simple, efficace !

*2026-08-11*

Je m’en sert au quotidien pour accéder à mon serveur et ma VM. 
Faudrait remettre la possibilité de se connecter via un nom reverse DNS et port. Impossible d’enregistrer des connexions avec une IP !
Ma licence repasse sans cesse en limité à cause de mes multiple connexion à mon serveur… je suis limite à 30 sec de PMAD !

### 5/5 — Update has caused video Stream glitch Issue

*2026-08-09, version 15.80.2*

UPDATE: 15.80.328 on iOS is now fully working again. Thanks!

### 5/5 — Awesome support

*2026-08-08, version 15.80.2*

It makes life easier when one can port the main context to other device to continue without any disruption.

### 5/5 — Great software

*2026-08-05, version 15.80.1*

Team viewer is an indispensable tool for monitoring workflows remotely. Work on the go and get more done. don’t take my word for it, just try it and you’ll see.

### 5/5 — After 15+ years I can’t wait to switch

*2026-08-01, version 15.80.1*

After 15+ years I can’t wait to switch 
The recent upgrade with migration failure, made life even harder

### 5/5 — Simply the best

*2026-07-22*

I’ve used a number of RC programs. TeamViewer is by far the most stable, user friendly interface. Many seamless features make it easy to use, even at basic or below computer experience. Take me for instance. 🙂

### 5/5 — Thank you

*2026-07-14, version 15.77.1*
