Great idea, but some things don’t work so well – Parallels Access Review

Just started using Parallels Access and there are a few things that bother me: - iOS multitasking doesn’t work: it’s inconvenient that I cannot have other iOS apps sharing the screen on my iPad Pro. - clipboard sharing doesn’t seem to be an option: clipboard sharing between OSes is very convenient in Parallels desktop and would be equally valuable for an app like this - Also, text selection doesn’t seem to be working in the app as it is demonstrated in the demo. No iOS selection handles appear when I select text. ***UPDATE*** - shared clipboard seems to be working on the latest version! - still not quite happy with iOS multitasking integration. This is possibly a design choice to preserve screen proportions, but having access to the overlay multitasking window rather than the split screen means that I loose functionality to part of my screen, have to keep moving the overlay window back and forth, and end up not using multitasking because it ends up being less of a pain to just switch back and forth between apps. It would be more convenient to be able to zoom in and out and pan on the screen from the remote computer in concert with split screen multitasking - screen sizing/multitasking also reminds me, there seems to be some unpredictable behavior when connecting to a computer (running Sierra) that has multiple displays attached to it. Sometimes it is not possible to interact with various windows (they are unresponsive to clicks, even when the mouse/cursor mode is turned on). Not sure what the underlying issue is but it would also be nice if there was an option to easily select what display/desktop you are interacting with
