Missing Essiential Ctrl-Alt-Del pass through.
Much needed app but lack of basic features like being able to send Ctrl-Alt-Del to login to a Windows VM make this unusable. Better off with the browser.
Cloud option not working
When i click on cloud option every time the App crashed
Broken
Does not work on an iPhone 14 or 15 on iOS 17. Will not connect to VCSA or ESXi. Sits there spinning, the other issue is the app name does not fit, it should be renamed to “vSphere” instead of “vSphereMobile”, Apple human interface guidelines please.
Bug-ridden legacy app
Here we are in 2023 and the app is still full of bugs and where basic stuff such as deleting hosts doesn’t work. The last update was more than a year ago so it’s clear VMware doesn’t really care and has all but abandoned the app. Which is a shame as it could have been great.
Save youself the hassle and use vCenter in a browser instead. It’s not great on a phone/tablet but at least it works.

Vmware cloud not working
Choosing vmware cloud location exists app
Poor user experience
1. Cannot full screen VM VNC.
2. Bad support of Apple Pencil and finger touch on VNC.

Not very useful on iPhone.
Can't use the mobile screen like a touch pad, to zoom in on a VM desktop like windows , which is basic mobile phone functionality. Have your devs tried using the app on their mobile phones??
Crashes if you select VMware cloud
On both iPhone and iPad the app just closes if you select VMware cloud at login.
Brilliant
To those reviewers of earlier versions, you should check this out again. It’s incredible. One review said you couldn’t even suspend a VM. Well, you can now. All day to day VM operations are available.
Doesn’t work with iOS 16 at all
App loads shows icon briefly and then go to white screen.
Severely lacking
I’d give this app 3-4 stars if it were made by some unknown developer on a low budget but it’s insane that VMWare still hasn’t produced a better mobile client. The biggest feature I’ve been longing for in this client is a solid remote client but it took them forever to implement it and now that you can at least get into servers the controls are poorly though out at best and down right buggy at worst. Come on VMWare, it’s not like you don’t have a million other examples out there of how to implement a mobile client for touch based mobile platforms.
This is the kind of product you get when your R&D process doesn’t involve testers who actually have to do work on the go.

Still garbage
Still doesn’t allow connections to VM’s, have to connect to the actual host to access them! Totally useless.
Solid VSphere Mobile Client
This application has improved over the last year, I am able to monitor or control any ESXi Host or VM (power cycle/shutdown/reboot plus remote KVM into any VM).
Very nice app, only downside is that if a ESXi host IP address changes the application keeps reverting back to the original first imputed IP address and only fix or solution is to fully delete the app and reinstall it, basically config it from the ground up again…

Great app (mostly)
For emergencies, it’s a great app. The only major area of improvement would be the console. It is very small and unable to be viewed in full screen / landscape mode on a mobile device (which makes it pretty useless). For monitoring resources, viewing tasks/events, using snapshots, and rebooting VMs, it works great.

Very nice lightweight app
All the complaints in all the reviews I saw have been addressed.
You can control VMs.
You can access a console, including typing in it
Very nice usage graphs.
Perfect for checking on a process or vm.
Not designed to be a full scale replacement for vcenter.

Crashes
Just completely crashes at the point of login with vCenter 7
Nice idea - but misses the point!
Great idea! Connect to your VMs from a lightweight device like an iPad!!! But wait...you don’t actually get to log into your VM and control it like you do from a computer. There is no way to send the CTRL+ALT+DEL command to the VM so you can log in and control the machine. You can see stats. You can power on/off. Or reboot the Guest OS. But so what? You can do those things from Safari on the iPad. This app is essentially USELESS.

Poor certificate handling
The app doesn’t handle internal certificates at all.
Not just for vSphere!
I don't use vSphere, and luckily this can connect to and manage the fully free and stand-alone ESXi server.
The app can't do a lot to manage your VMs, but it does let you view them and their stats.
