Although you only get 3 machines for free. This is hands down the easiest most efficient vnc I've used.

After the update, it has become very inconvenient to switch between the keyboard and the mouse(Before, when using the keyboard, you could immediately switch to the mouse, but now it requires extra steps(

Update 14-07-2026, still very stable workhorse for remote acces. It works perfectly, every time, all the time. And is still the best for home network headless Raspberry Pi servers, where it is included free of charge.

Have used this to access Linux machines from Windows devices and mobile devices, domestically and internationally. It has worked great for regular remote access.

Beware of buying. I recently upgraded from the free Lite plan to the 16 USD monthly plan to use more than 3 devices. The experience has been immediately made worse than now I have to open a standalone web browser to end sessions rather than the Android app terminating and switching them automatically like when I was on the Lite plan. Per Real VNC support, this is intended. I cannot recommend buying a subscription even if the software is fine for this reason. What a disappointment.

It was fine until recently my laptop got a new IP, so I had to update the IP in the app. I did and now get the unencrypted connection warning page again, and I can uncheck the warn me every time toggle, but the actual ok button to proceed is at the very top of my screen UNDERNEATH MY STATUS BAR (underneath the battery and Wi-Fi symbols), so I can't press the ok button to proceed any further.

Since last update I can not use this on pixel 8 pro when I click on a connection it goes to the next screen and the top bar is at the very top behind the date and behind the network connection icons, so I can not click on to connect. This is the same in the settings screen total unusable this was never like this before I guess I will have to look at alternatives.

After update 4.9.x the ok/connect buttons is under android status bar. And then nobody is able to connect to the remote side. (I download 4.8.x, and it works fine) Btw I contacted support about this issue, and they reply if I didn't pay for license they will be no help at all. And they not care about.

Compared to TeamViewer this is trash. So difficult to figure out how to connect my devices. Installed teamviewer and within 5 mins my devices were connected
