Description
RealVNC® Viewer from RealVNC® gives you instant remote access to your Mac, Windows and Linux computers from anywhere in the world. You can view your computer's desktop, and control its mouse and keyboard as though you were sitting down in front of it.

Download RealVNC Connect to each computer you want to control. Then sign in to RealVNC Viewer on your device using your RealVNC account credentials. You'll see your computers automatically appear; simply tap to connect.

RealVNC Connect password-protects each computer out-of-the-box. You may need to enter the same user name and password you use to log in to your computer. All sessions are then encrypted end-to-end. 

During a session, your device's touch screen serves as a trackpad to give you precise control. Drag your finger to move the remote mouse cursor and tap anywhere to left-click (other gestures such as right-click and scroll are explained in-app). 

As the original inventors of VNC remote access technology, we're confident you'll love what RealVNC Viewer has to offer. If you're still not convinced, check out our reviews!

Session Timeout Laughably Short

I’ve been using this app for over 10yrs. For 10yrs users have been complaining about the 30 second session timeout. Does VNC do anything about it? No. The timeout adds inconvenience to the experience and it makes no sense. MS RDP iOS client has NO TIMEOUT. You can leave your session open for days. I’m not asking for days here but how about 5 minutes? Or something more acceptable than a lousy 30 seconds. I don’t expect the devs to do anything about this because it’s been a complaint for a decade. Clearly they do not care.

Works well to manage personal Macs and PCs in two seasonal homes

I maintain several machines spread across two locations. Real VNC allows me to login and update software in both sites. I now have a paid subscription which allows audio to work as well. Oddly, even when I’m in one location real VNC allows a faster connection than a local direct connection. Go figure.

Good app, doesn’t work with Stage Manager External setup at all

If you open this app on an external display, it gives you zero options to control or select a remote connection. If you open the app from the iPad, the viewer hijacks your entire external display. You can’t use your external mouse or keyboard to easily control the remote viewer, the mouse won’t move across the entire display. The keyboard doesn’t work until you click the keyboard button on the iPad display. When you actually try to type, every single keypress pops up a box that requires you to “Allow Paste” or “Disallow Paste” making it completely useless and infuriating. Please fix this and make it usable on an external display with Stage Manager.

Change in licensing to remove home user licensing

So sad as I use vnc maybe twice a month so it’s not worth the money and definitely not worth exposing all my machine info and credentials to be stored on your servers where they are local today. Good bye

A very useful app...

It badly needs a way to skip the tutorial that is shown after updates. It is tiresome to go through things you know perfectly well.
