Reviews

The best
MattyShortSheets

I never write reviews but this app is so amazing it deserves one. I use it on iPad Pro to connect via RDP to Windows servers. Much better than windows RDP app because modifier keys work! Also works with Linux and Mac, but RDP protocol is absolutely stunning! I programmed keyboard macros using autohotkey to get a nice Apple Pencil workflow. One feature I’d like to request is an option to hide the shortcut bar obstructing the start menu bar when displaying the floating keyboard on ipad. Good stuff.


Indispensable Tool
Christopher Olson

I’ve been using Jump Desktop for well over five years. It is one of my most indispensable tools for getting work done from any location - not only on my Mac, but also my iPad. If I could only choose 10 apps to have installed on my system, this would have to be one of them!


An extraordinary RDP app
hacam00

I absolutely love Jump, it’s a fantastic RDP client that supports so many advanced features (RDP over SSH, public keys, Win10 multitouch, various interaction modes, Bluetooth mice, etc. etc. etc). Cannot recommend more!


Won’t connect on local network; no response from support
Ggg-VA

Of late, connecting via my iPad Pro 11 to my windows SB2 and Mac mini m1 on on LAN just stays on connecting screen. Oddly, it will connect remotely and through VPN ... I’ve contacted support numerous times, no response. Looked for info on their website, nothing. Can’t recommend ... VNC works every time ... this app just won’t work. Really poor support.


RDP Better than Microsoft
JE10010011

I have windows 10 pro and the RDP on this app doesn't require an account or software with jump desktop, and works way better than the Microsoft app. Highly recommend this!


Prayers answered...#1 RDC app.
galareyewis

This app is a dream come through. After wasting time downloading worthless RDC apps, I came across Jump Desktop. This app was easily installed and easy to use. Prayers answered!!!


The best RDP app
devalexwhite

Very good app that supports features the others do not (external display support being one of the biggest features). “Fluid desktop” is incredibly smooth, even good enough for gaming. My absolute biggest wish is that they add cursor lock support!


Best!
pctweakz

Hands down the best Remote Desktop experience, anywhere. I’ve tried tons of apps on android and iOS and this one is by far the best and most feature rich. Developers truly thought of everything, are responsive, and continue to update the app. Thank you!!!!


You get what you pay for!

Great application, their proprietary protocol is by far the best available on the market. Great iOS app!


So close to perfect, just needs one small fix.

This is great - Fluid is well, super fluid. It works flawlessly with the Apple Magic Keyboard (including the trackpad). I love that it can play audio too! Easily the best remote software I have used. Unfortunately, my one complaint is a nagging one: It does not seem to support the iPad Pro 11 2020’s aspect ratio. I get these obnoxious black bars on the sides and bottom of the screen when remoting into my Mac Mini. When using a small 11” screen, it would really be nice to utilize all of the space available, without zooming in and scrolling around. Solutions seem to involve using RDP, but then the quality drops significantly compared to Fluid. Just a shame, I hope they account for the new aspect ratio on the Pro 11 sometime in the future.
