    Thanks @MarkBrown :finger:

    @Saxio Are you referring to mobile or desktop app?

    The Remote Desktop app makes the UX much better than anything browser based. You can easily transfer files, save credentials, and more. When you say browser, are you referring to VNC?

    The Remote Desktop application for iOS has been renamed to the Windows App. I highly recommend utilizing this over the Chrome RD. Using the new Windows App on iOS (Mac and iPhone) almost feels like the Windows VPS is built into your local machine. Extremely smooth, easy to use, dynamically adjusts screen size and resolution, access to local files.
