About VNC Viewer for Android

VNC Viewer for Android is the original Open Source (GPL) remote desktop program for Android devices. Connects to most VNC servers: incl TightVNC, RealVNC on Win and Linux, x11vnc, and Apple Remote Desktop on OS/X. Lots of customizable features let you adapt the way your device controls map to the controls of your desktop.

0.5.0 -- Will preserve sent text from session to session (optionally; there is a new button to send text without remembering it); Import/Export settings to a file on SD card (Can import from URL; useful when deploying to many devices with same configuration); add button in zoom control to bring up keyboard; Hungarian translation; no longer prefers to install to SD card because that was causing problems

Hello fellow tablet owner don't RISK damaging your device to install this crap. All good reviews by company NOT customers

by K####:

The interface certainly takes some getting used to, and there are still some common interactions I'd like to do with less taps. That said, it hooks up flawlessly with all my VNC stuff, doesn't have ads or removed features, and it helps keep my breath fresh. If I were to offer suggestions, maybe some on-screen customisable hot-key buttons? That would pour the chocolate on this ice-cream for sure.

T70%
by T####:

I'm amazed at how well this app works on both my phone and on tablets. When remotely operating my home desktop, it's smoother and quicker than the desktop VNC client I usually use! My only complaint is that sometimes the input mode seems to not stay set the same (I usually choose "pan & scroll") from use to use.

by K####:

Using it to connect to my home PC, when I'm out and about. Works flawlessly. (My home PC is behind a gateway/firewall and uses DHCP. In such cases remember to configure port forwarding on the gateway. Also, it is convenient to use a dynamic DNS provider, unless you have a static IP address, which is not the norm for residential Internet service.)

Iphone made billons of dollars because steve made it simple. Please just make it work like Steve. Smartphone geeks thought they were smart because no one understood the jiberish. Truley, Steve Jobs was brilliant. Please be brilliant! Make it just work!

It does make make me laugh when an application has nearly 4200 - 5 stars and then somebody gives it 1 star caliming it doesn't work. Do they mail the dev's? Doubt it, these people want free free free and are not interested in investigating why it doesn't work, even when it's likely to be user error! Off topic, yep, but just saying!!! :) Anyway, top app in my book, does exactly what I need, (and everybodys needs are different). I use it to control the PC connected to the TV, watching movies and Skype.

K70%
by K####:

Provides the basic functionality one would expect in such a program. Switching between input modes is a bit cumbersome, but is manageable as long as you don't try to do too much involving both right-clicks and double-clicks on the remote machine. Well worth the download.

K70%
by K####:

Pros: Right click simulation. Cons: Central-european accented characters are shown as "?"-s. (The language files should be converted to utf-8.) This makes the translated text unreadable. Not usable with realVNC server because the server used some unsupported security type. My server is using VNS pass authentication.

K70%
by K####:

Works very well, and franly puts the paid "real VNC Viewer" app to shame. I like that it allows the user to send a control break. But sure wish it would allow sending a Control break-break. Free is always good.. but would have paid the 10 bucks for this one instead of the realVNC.

K70%
by K####:

The screen shows up. Clicks almost work all the time, found click near edges on scroll bars though to work. All what aside text entry into a browser is bad. I tried several time and could not get text into a text box

K70%
by K####:

This works as a basic VNC client. A lot of the problems other people seem to be having could be fixed straightforwardly by tunneling the connection over SSH, using, e.g., ConnectBot. That said, the interface for sending special keys (control, alt, etc) is very awkward, and it doesn't work with Hacker's Keyboard, so forget about controlling keyboard-intensive applications.

K70%
by K####:

The ability to copy text from the remote host is pretty standard on today's vnc viewers. It is missing from this viewer. This viewer is less useful without this vital feature. Example: highlight text on the remote host, a Windows PC, and use it on the phone. (Copy remote host clipboard to Android device). This is like a partial implementation of a vnc viewer. This is 'alpha' quality software.

L70%
by L####:

5 Stars for such a great potential app. It works as advertised and works flawlessly on my Galaxy S2 - Gingerbread. Tested the app works with Real, Tight without any problem. The app's icon should be redesign in high res icon. Otherwise the app icon looks ugly.

When will this client support type 18 TLS encryption? Without it can not function with VNC desktop sharing on Ubuntu out of the box.

D70%
by D####:

Visuals are great. Doesn't do discovery of computer names via broadcast on lan. I have to use ip address for connection. Input via touchscreen is a bit clunky. A respectable vnc viewer all in, though.

I connect but when i do it spins and spins and don't do anything else but spin the loading sign...anyone help? Trying to run Linux kali on it

X70%
by X####:

What this lacks is the ability to have a full keyboard for control. Way to difficult to edit code. Almost impossible to delete typing errors.

K70%
by K####:

After a bit of noodling around establishing IPs and passwords, response is good, options are great. What's not to like? It's free too, and kudos to the team. Have not yet tried over a distance - (i.e. out of my own wi-fi area) - but impressed so far, for sure.

Currently, my Android ph displays often...System.XW has stopped. I ain't no 'techno-geek, so I'm left wondering what the f..k up with my $1500.00 smartphone. I have read up on it but don't have all year to decypher the gobbledygook. I installed as per instructions via 'what is S.XW New Zealand & Google play says its installed. I can't seem to locate fix or updates so...what is left to heal my S.XW problem? Currently 1*
