PocketVNC

PocketVNC turns your iPhone or iPad into a remote control for any computer running a VNC server — your Mac, a Windows PC, a Linux box, or a Raspberry Pi.

Connect over your home network or the internet and see your desktop live, with smooth pinch-to-zoom, precise touch, and a proper keyboard with modifier and function keys.

Secure by default. PocketVNC supports encrypted connections (VeNCrypt/TLS), including certificate-based servers with trust-on-first-use verification — so you can see exactly which machine you're connecting to. Saved server passwords are stored in the iOS Keychain, never on our servers.

Built for real use:
• Live remote desktop with pinch-to-zoom and pan
• Tap to click, long-press to right-click, two-finger scroll
• Full on-screen keyboard — Ctrl, Alt, Shift, Cmd, Esc, Tab, arrows, F1–F12
• Auto-reconnect if the network drops (Pro)
• ZRLE compression and quality presets for responsive control over slower links
• Light, dark, and system appearance • Works with standard VNC servers: macOS Screen Sharing, TigerVNC, RealVNC, TightVNC, x11vnc, and more
• VNC password and Apple Remote Desktop (ARD) authentication

Free includes one saved server and up to 30 minutes of connection time every 6 hours — plenty for a quick check-in. The free tier is ad-supported: a small banner appears in the app, and an occasional full-screen ad is shown while a connection is starting — never during an active session.

PocketVNC Pro (subscription) unlocks the full toolkit:
• Unlimited connection time and unlimited saved servers
• No ads
• Saved passwords for one-tap connect
• Server groups to organize your machines
• Reusable saved credentials — apply one login to a server or a whole group
• Wake-on-LAN — power on a sleeping computer before you connect
• Auto-reconnect after a dropped connection
• App Lock with Face ID, Touch ID, or your passcode
• Colour accents and per-server quality presets
• Trackpad mode — relative, laptop-style pointer control
• Clipboard sync between devices

Free to download. Subscribe any time (7-day free trial) for unlimited access and every Pro feature.
