User Reviews

Screens 5 is a polished, high‑performance VNC client for Apple devices with strong cross‑device support and built‑in Tailscale. It offers a cohesive Apple ecosystem experience and solid documentation, but reviewers frequently cite concerns over pricing/subscription and fiddly initial setup. Outside LAN reliability can also vary. Overall, a strong choice for security‑mfocused, multi‑device remote access if cost and setup are acceptable.

Pros

Polished, high‑performance VNC/remote desktop client for Apple devices with fast rendering and low latency.
Built-in Tailscale integration enables secure, hassle‑free remote access without port forwarding.
Strong cross‑device support (multi‑device connections) and seamless Apple ecosystem integration (iCloud sync, universal across iPhone/iPad/Mac).
Modern, user‑friendly UI with centralized management and good documentation/support.

Cons

Pricing model and ongoing subscription costs are a common point of critique, with some users preferring perpetual licenses.
Setup and initial connection can be fiddly or unreliable, with multiple users reporting setup challenges before it works.

Recent reviews

More subscriptions, no thank you…

The app is great but it draws down power on an iPad Pro M5 extremely rapidly. Even plugged into a charger, power goes down faster than it can be supplied by the charger. Surely, this is a bug whereby something is staying too busy.
