Fluid Remote Desktop uses DTLS for secure connections. SSH Tunnelling and SSL/TLS encryption for VNC. Supports NLA, TLS/SSL encryption for RDP. Automatic connections are always encrypted by default. Jump encrypts the connection between computers to ensure privacy and security. Jump Desktop is very easy to setup anyone can do it! Just visit: on your PC or Mac, click the ‘Automatic Setup’ link and follow step-by-step instructions. Jump Desktop also supports our own, high performance, next generation remote desktop protocol called Fluid Remote Desktop. Jump is definitely the better value on all platforms.Ĭompatible with both RDP and VNC, Jump Desktop is secure, reliable and very easy to set up. I compared with several RDP apps which are either free or for a fee (including the remote desktop from the software giant) before I committed to Jump. I think I spent $10 in the App Store and is totally worth it. But it is super easy to re-establish the connection manually. This may be due to weak WiFi or when my OS goes to sleep, I don’t know. The only downside is that I occasionally lose connections. Since I have access to my home desktop, I can do my remote software development work without having to be stuck at home. It is a proven winner for me using RDP, and VNC protocols. I also use it from anywhere when I connect to my Ubuntu file, and network servers, and any one of my Ubuntu Virtual Box VMs. I use it to connect to my desktop (Mac Mini) when I am away from home. I have installed it on my iPhone, iPad, Mac Mini, and MacBook Pro. I set up a VPN on my home network and complement it with Jump. Now I CAN leave my laptop behind! There is no hyperbole in this comment. And now they want more money for manual cloudless Fluid connections. I asked Jump about getting retina resolutions on Fluid, and they did not respond. Microsoft’s free Remote Desktop accomplishes this for Windows. BTW, Anydesk (free) does retina resolutions for Mac currently. What they have actually accomplished is locking more features (like manual Fluid connections) behind a subscription! Yay! More subscriptions for an app you’ve already paid for in the first place! The reason I bought Jump to begin with was that they didn’t have a subscription model, but it seems every developer nowadays wants a piece of the pie. They hide this well on their website, but promised years ago that they were working on it. You can only utilize retina from iPad>Mac by using a VNC connection, which performs horribly, and you can do this for free anyway without Jump. They also say that you can connect with full retina resolution. I tried this app due to it being recommended online. When you switch the Mac to the lock screen there is no indicator on the iPad that the Mac’s screen is locked while you’re using the Mac remotely - you just have to know it is. Using the Mac’s user account switcher there is a way to make the Mac go to the lock screen while keeping jump desktop connected via the iPad, but you have to remember to do this every time you connect. There is no indicator in-app that your mac’s screen is being exposed to the world. One major downside preventing a 5-star rating is connecting to your mac via jump desktop will expose your mac’s screen to anyone who is in the same room as your mac. Now I can confidently leave my MacBook connected at home and just take my iPad Pro with me and not feel limited.The Magic Keyboard’s trackpad works like a native mouse!Although iPad swipe gestures take precedence over native swipe gestures, they have on-screen buttons for exposé, desktop switching, etc. The iPad Pro + Magic Keyboard + Jump Desktop is the holy grail.The iPad can do a lot of things, but sometimes there’s something I can only do well on my MacBook, such as programming.
