User Reviews

You can use the Ubuntu Gnome Desktop with a near native feel on your iPad, iPhone, or Mac it’s pretty sweet! I hope this will be updated to work with Ubuntu 26 that just released I haven’t tried it yet so not sure if this app works with 26 or not! I give this 5 stars for the smooth Ubuntu RDP support alone & because I appreciate the Open Source nature of this app. I only have a minor gripe about the UI: I feel like it’s too easy to delete a RDP Connection configuration like when you press & hold down on a Connection you get two options that pop up either “Edit” or “Delete” and you can easily accidentally press Delete and there’s no confirmation screen or warning saying like “Are you sure you want to delete this Connection?” Instead it just deletes the connection instantly with no warning. Please add some kind of confirmation step so it is harder for us users to accidentally delete our Connections! Would also like to see iCloud sync for our RDP Connection configs too 😛

After spending half a day downloading every screen-sharing app I could find (many that I had to pay for), I finally found one that would work with Ubuntu 24.04 Desktop Sharing! It will both connect/authenticate (only one other app would even do that), and it displays the desktop screen without any glitches (the other app that could connect was unusably distorted and would only control the top left of the screen). Judging from this app's changelog, Ubuntu compatibility might have been a pretty recent addition? In any case, it is one I am very grateful for!
