Pros and cons of Connect Desktop app for iPhone and iPad

Connect Desktop app good for

Works great and great email customer service. Also one of the cheaper programs of its kind out there.

Works great from my iPad. Lots of features. More mouse features would be helpful but can still get by.

Some bad moments

"connect your ipad to your windows PC", thats it according to the description. But unfortunately you need a lot of configurations to do and several setups, which requirs some skills. I dont have this skills, so this app was wasting money for me...

I started out loving this app. It is a great first effort, but it often crashes when working with big or multiple screens (dont mouse around too quickly or she no like). I have moved on to another more stable VNC app, but will keep an eye on the development of this one.

very buggy software got it for $4,99 and cant work with it, lost my money

didnt work for me and i consider myself pretty darn good around the computer. support section on their web is garbage and no help whatsoever for the mac application

After deciding my iMac was beyond Tiger, set up became easier. In fact, I made it harder than it really was. The trickiest part was, once I was sure my settings were correct, was to figure out how to get the app to "run". Finally double clicked on the name of the computer in the name bar at the top of the gray screen. Suddenly my computers desktop appeared! Cheaper than a similar app, does exactly what I wanted it to do. It would be good if all the apps had some sort of trial period, so you can at least know if the darn thing works! It could self-destruct in a few days for all I care, just want to know if I buy it, it will function!

Installation wasnt too hard, but harder than it needs to be. Do no recomend this. the lag is annoying on the screen, if it worked over 3G, it would be excellent, but for being wifi based, it doesnt cut it. I suggest mobile air mouse, its much better for this, it just requires you to look at the screen. Waste of money. wish apple provided a short trial period of ever app, to avoid people wasting five dollars on an app that they delete in 2 minutes.
