With Apple’s announcement of improved mouse support on iPad in IOS 13.4, I’m wondering how RPD sessions will behave. Has this been tested yet?
Hi Ricardo,
No, the mouse support hasn't been tested.
We will check this out next week and keep you posted.

Hi Ricardo,
The mouse works in IOS 13.4, however the only clicks that are executed are left clicks.
Currently, IOS 13.4 offers a very basic mouse support. The mouse support will be a lot richer in IOS 14.
At the time of this writing, we haven't found any api to help us improve or control how the mouse behaves.

Thank you Nicolas. Definitely looking forward to future enhancements.
Wanted to check in on this. For now I have been using Jump Desktop which does support right click and other gestures under iPadOS 13.5, but would love to be able to do this using RDM only as it is by far my preferred Remote Desktop manager.
Hi Richard,
It is on our list. We should be working on it very soon.

Hi,
A new version has just been released (2020.2.1) which includes better support for external input devices (mouse, trackpad and keyboard) in remote sessions. The mouse should now behave as expected in RDP sessions.

That's great news!!
