VMware Horizon Client

Al instalar la versión, sólo conecta a las máquinas virtuales la primera vez, luego saca error de conexión.

need to support yubikey for iOS version

What a disappointing app that gets in its own way. When a keyboard + mouse are paired (such as the Magic Keyboard) why is not hiding the virtual keyboard bar at the bottom (which seemingly has a mind of its own popping up) and the touchscreen quick access circular button + left-side tab? These unnecessarily clutter the display and take away from the experience, especially when using a keyboard and mouse. Why is it not simply treating the iPad Pro + Keyboard and Mouse effectively the same as the Mac VMware Horizon Client? That’s what it should do. Hopefully with Broadcom’s acquisition, this disaster of an app is fixed.

Unable to fit viewed chart to screen. It’s extremely small.

On an 11” ipad, screen l estate is at a premium. When you connect to a vm and use the keyboard for anything, the toolbar appearing at the bottom of the screen takes up far too much of it. Why on earth there isnt a setting to disable that is beyond me. Do that and this app is 5*. I reached out to vmware enterprise support and they indicated it is an apple issue. If that is the case, how does the Microsoft RDP client get around it? The ipad would be IDEAL as a support tool if vmware would fire this issue. With LTE and instant on, quick connections to handle support issues would be cake. PLEASE fix this issue

I find working in the VM Horizon application to be challenging. The inability to drag or resize windows without moving the entire application is frustrating. Additionally, the persistent keyboard settings bar that obstructs the taskbar is bothersome, with no option to hide it. Despite attempting to use this application on my iPad, I cannot recommend it due to these issues. It feels like using this app is more of a time-waster than a productivity tool, and the adjustments required are not justified. I hope this feedback is taken into consideration, as I've been considering replacing my Dell tablet with my iPad for some time now. It would also be beneficial if there was a feature to lock oneself within the application, preventing accidental resizing when trying to close software within the VM

Horizon Client is great on macOS to allow me to connect to my Windows VDI for work, but on my M2 iPad the app still needs work. The keyboard on iPad OS doesn’t always appear for me to send an Ctrl-Alt-Del to login and I have to exit the app and reconnect. Moreover, once connected to my VDI on iPad, I cannot drag windows within Horizon Client (on my VDI). I do not know whether it is iPad OS intervening and thinking I want to drag the Horizon Client window or whether that is in Horizon Client’s domain to control? But, it is very annoying. I still rate Horizon Client app on my M2 iPad with 4 stars because it allows me to still enjoy my Apple devices all day even if I am relegated to work in Windows for work. 🙂

I would like a way to hide the little keyboard toolbar. Also, I couldn’t figure out file sharing. There’s a toggle in settings, but no explanation of what exactly it does or how to use it. I tried looking for a button to upload a file in all the little menus. I tried dragging my file onto the VM session. Nothing. I don’t know if this next thing is a problem is with this app or the VM, but sometimes when I use this app, the VM will configure itself to a really low screen resolution. It’s really difficult to use like that. The “activate windows” overlay takes like a quarter of the screen, windows are way bigger than the screen until you maximize, & you can barely fit any content on the screen. Most of the time, though, the VM serves a screen resolution that feels right for my iPad.

Great App on Mac, but would love to have Native Smartcard and Yubikey support directly in the app. A lot of apps are supporting this now and this should be an easy win!

This may work well with basic presentation mode, but with Stage Manager on a M1 or M2 iPad Pro and most current version of iPadOS, its a usability mess. Odd mouse and keyboard behaviors where both iPadOS and Horizon client are trying to trap and respond to input, and inexplicable connection drops. Understand of course, that working with Stage Manager vs. full external display control is a different challenge for the development team, but until that is resolved the integration with the current display features for the Pro iPads is lacking
