Desktop Connect App Reviews

Works better than more expensive apps

Works better in the touch control and wake up features than the expensive subscription VNC apps. Occasionally loses track of where the left side of screen preventing access to hot corners, etc.

Works unreliably with Bluetooth keyboard

I just got a Zagg keyboard cover for my iPad air, and when I launch Desktop Connect and try to type using the keyboard, it sometime doesnt work. At other times it does, and I havent figured out the reason for the inconsistency. This isnt a problem with the keyboard since it works consistently for all other iPad uses.

5 Stars and Worth It!!

Love it, Love it, Love it!

Needs an update

Ive used this app for 4 years now and I love it. But ios8 has completely rendered it useless, I have ios 8.0.2 on my iPhone 6 and it crashed the app about 1/2-3/4 of the time I try to remote into anything. Once it finally logs into my Mac or pc and click on anything, it will open the program but the app wont refresh on the iPhone. If I close the app and re-open it I can view what I previously did. On my iPad I have iOS version 7.1.2 and it works perfect! Please fix this!

Working fine in iOS 8 and Yosemite now.

Stopped working for me after upgrading my iPad to iOS 8, but once I upgraded my Mac to Yosemite, it has begun working well again.

Crash crash crash

This crashes all the time under iOS 8. Needs to be updated or pulled from the store.

Used to work

Was fine until I updated my iPad and iOS. Now I can generally see the Remote Desktop, but there are keyboard problems and they no longer respond to tech support requests. Perhaps they have stopped supporting it.

Essential for work

Better than the others Ive tried for RDP & VNC. Now I can assist clients from the road and make sure movies are downloaded for when I get home. Frequent updates assure compatibility with latest OS. Thanks Update: This app has not been updated in over a year and frequently crashes. Im searching for a replacement. No reply from developer Antacea to requests for help. Worked well for a couple years anyway. Oh well. Not recommending this app any longer.

Doesnt work without Gmail

My Win7 laptop wont connect to my iPad2 using this SW. I think its because for some reason this app requires Gmail - at least thats what it complains about when the connections fail. At any rate, Im not going to screw around debugging it - apps are just suppose to work - right?
