I'd love to see the ability to log in to monitor trades while concurrently logged in on my PC so I could simply monitor my positions when I step away from my desk. Logging in and out of IB to switch back and forth (especially with the code card) is a real pain.

You can run a remote desk top app from phone view / control
IB TWS.
You can even view your desktop from your phones browser
With this app.
I think it is the best around, free , and high quality.

and just to add the Dolphin browser is the best mobile browser I have used. It even includes a screen capture tool, has multiple tabs like google, and a great speed dial page.
Works perfectly with Mikogo screen sharing too !

I regularly use a couple different remote desktop apps including UltraVNC + Android VNC Viewer and Splashtop remote (which also transfers sound to the phone.) They all work very well but they can't reformat a large PC screen's resolution for easy use with a phone. For that a dedicated app is required.
For remote access I've found NeoRouter (VPN) works pretty well with the above applications, but it was difficult to get working at first.

The revamped version is a significant improvement, dst. Love it. What I'm still missing are more advanced charting functionalities:
- Show overnight activity in futures
- Change the time frame in terms of 15m, 1h, 1d, etc. should be possible
- Change the chart type: OHLC, candle, line
- Ability to hover over a chart and see the OHLC values for the current bar or candle where my finger is at. It would allow me to set the stop loss order accurately when trading mobile
Currently I am using several mobile tools to get all the information I need, but having everything in one app would be the ultimate.

Any way to get full-screen charts on Mobile TWS? That's about the only thing that's holding me up from moving from iTWS. Well, that and the fact that expired options not only do not get autoremoved in Mobile TWS, they cause it to crash.

With mobile TWS, when I go into chart tools and enable the volume window, it only shows bars for US equities. It's always blank for US options and futures. iTWS showed volume for all three types of contracts. Anyone else have this issue?
