I tried it out today for the first time to see how well it worked compared to TeamViewer. This was my experience as well. I could not get it to work at all. Only once did it connect briefly for about a second, and then still disconnected. All the other attempts disconnected before I could even see the remote computer. TeamViewer worked fine. Perhaps it is not happy with high latency or low bandwidth?

Hey folks!

I'm so excited to see development for iOS! I've wanted RDM on my iPad for years! I discovered it in the app store last night and tried it out. I realize it's still in the early stages and there will be issues. My first problem is that I cannot get it to connect to any servers that use an RD Gateway, so it is of no use outside a building or without VPN. Once it tells me it can't connect, I have to force quit the whole app, it never recovers.

However, the big issue is that it just plain doesn't work yet, or I'm doing something very wrong. If I connect to a local server without RD Gateway, there are some issues with screen size and particularly right click. It doesn't automatically scale to the screen size of my iPad, making the point where you click shift around and not line up with the correct spot. In fact, I'd go so far as to say it's pretty much completely unusable at this point, I can't get anything but a keyboard to work most of the time. 1 or 2 minutes later and about 14 taps of the screen and suddenly something will open or close that I had tried multiple times. I don't have this issue with Microsoft's RDP app on the same servers. Once you try right click once, it really corrupts the display, with portions of the start menu showing up but not others, a quarter of an app disappearing and not showing, etc., etc. But it works to monitor something like an install, if I don't want to interact with the machine.

On the plus side, at least I can look up user's passwords now though from the database, and that's a huge help for me! And I love that I can display passwords for other entries I have in my database like admin pages for switches, etc. I would prefer to be able to tap once on an item on the left and have it open the connection to it, rather than display an overview page for it. Clicking the i in the circle for a menu, and then clicking Open is not as intuitive or efficient as just clicking once on the icon itself, if you could consider this change for a future release?

Sorry for my gripes, I'm just very excited to see this app come to the iPad and I want to see it work as well as your desktop app. Let me know if I'm doing something wrong to have this many issues. I'm using an iPad Air 2 with iOS 9.1.

Thanks!

Wow, that was a quick response! I just downloaded the updated build. Still got the same prompt. I checked the box to always remember password and it seems to have done so, but I think it was only saved on this computer and not in the database itself. Since I really only keep my laptop and desktop synced, it's not an issue. I was just tired of typing it in every time.

Is it available in 6.0.0.0? It still keeps prompting me for a password whenever I use TS Gateway, unless I'm doing something wrong...

I discovered I could create a "portable" version on my encrypted thumbdrive by copying the contents of the installation folder over. I also copied the Connections.mdb file and added it as a data source in the portable version. Works very well. I'd like to store passwords in the .mdb file as well instead of on the local computer however, and that option is grayed out (Store password in the database). Is this referring to a SQL database or is it only available in the Enterprise version? I'm more than happy to purchase it if I can make it fit our needs. :-)

Also, is there a way of exporting a group and retaining the passwords to give to another user? I only want to export a subset of everything for a particular client.
