Ratings and reviews

The functionality is great (fast and flexible) and it is one of the only apps that performs like rdp to allow changing the server display resolution on the fly, but its android app is buggy. It crashes if you manually connect to a mac os server by ip. It connects if you allow auto discovery. Even then, it crashes on the initial connection and only works when you connect a second time.

Literally Unusable. Used to be a fantastic application, and on desktops it still is, but the android build fails to connect the first time, silently connects in the background, and then when you reconnect it just tells you you cant have a second connection unless you fork over money. Trying to uninstall and reinstall the thing causes some kind of major malfunction to where it won't even open, and just crashes immediately after opening, with android popping up a message saying its bugged!

Most recent update broke the ability to zoom out all the way, putting a black border around everything that covers up the desktop, forcing you to scroll to see the other side of the screen. Mouse constantly double-clicks by accident. The tab is permanently stuck on the right side of the screen, only able to go up or down. Options menus are barren, and what options they do give you are unreliable, especially the zoom features, which are prone to resetting themselves without warning.
