8 of 25Now fraudulent, no website, all recent reviews say it doesn’t work
Can’t copy SSH key to PasteBoard. Can’t email them either.<br/><br/>Everything is awesome except when I generate an SSH key, I can’t do anything with it. I think OS14 broke it.
Reported to apple as fraud
1.18.25<br/><br/>The latest update fixed nothing because of course it didn’t.<br/><br/>12.22.24 Just when you thought they couldn’t break this app more, they do. The app now only uses a fraction of my iPad Pro screen and there’s no way to make it bigger without cutting off part of my view. Do the developers even test this stuff before they release it? You’d be hard pressed to prove it by me. I didn’t get a chance to try it because it’s just too small to see, but I’m sure the apostrophe on the iPad Pro still doesn’t work either. It’s a safe bet, it’s been broken for years and up until the last update it still hadn’t been fixed. 9.29.23 Update fixes absolutely nothing. Still get a black screen constantly. Can't connect at all on Pro. Still garbage. Last week: I bought and have used Remoter VNC for many, many years. I thought I was a fan for life. Now it's entirely unusable because the developers can't be bothered to maintain it. It doesn't work well, when it works at all, on neither my Air 3 nor iPad Pro. At one point it was the best remote desktop out there. How the mighty have fallen... all the way to the bottom.
Connection wizard crashes when choosing SSH Key Manager option. Impossible to configure a connection.
I am disappointed. This used to be my go-to for occasionally accessing other Macs in the house. Since early 2020 if not earlier, not working at all for me. Started new profile/setups but no joy. Could be some change in MacOS? Probably not, one target is still on Sierra. Continued problems with Mojave. Sad. ...<br/>Also, the developer website has a forum with last post in 2016 ... not exactly confidence building. And wants people to pay $ for “Pro” version? ? ?<br/>2021/03/31 Just discovered Settings/Privacy/LocalNetworks, where this app was disallowed accesses somehow. Now it works again! ! !
This is my favorite remote access app my only disappointment is there are a few bugs and it’s not available on android/ windows / linux. There’s also some compatibility issues with older OS’s like versions of it and the Mac App Store certificates but I have it on every device I can. I was very happy when I found out it was available on the desktop and immediately purchased it. It has a few quirks here and there but it works really well and it encompasses all the different protocols VLC,RDP, SSH and the interface is really nice and there are a lot of things that the developer has thought of.
This app has been broken for a while now. I’d rate zero stars if I could. Crashes on attempting to open any kind of connection. It should be removed from the App Store as a scam/orphaned/abandoned application.
