  • Incredibly Useful App

    This app is incredible to me because I live off-grid in a house where I can only get 2 bars of LTE and I can still access my Mac mini from miles away, nearly seamlessly. It has some glitches from time to time, like failing to wake up my computer, but they can often be fixed by deleting and reinstalling the app. One major thing I think the app is missing is the ability to click and drag content around on screen. You can’t resize windows, drag & drop files, or effectively utilize creative software without the ability to click and drag 🤕 Another thing that would be nice to have is an onscreen return key in the “additional keys” bar. It seems like when I use parallels on my iPhone/ipad without a keyboard, that’s the one key I need to open the software keyboard for the most. Incredible job on the app, it’s well worth the money. I can get by without a laptop because I can use this so well on my iPad Pro. 👏

  • Not compatible with windows 11

    Used for years but had to uninstall after a recent update created a conflict on new windows 11 laptop that resulted in constant blocking and dropping of internet and/or slow speeds on both cabled and WiFi connections. Wiped entire laptop and reinstalled all software program-by-program 3 times independently to confirm parallels is definitely the culprit. Internet speeds 350-500mbs download and 30-60 upload until parallels installed: immediately 50-100 mbs download, 0 mbs upload with constant internet dropping (ethernet and wifi agnostic). Also tried: firewall removal/disable, comprehensive driver reinstallations, ethernet adaptor repair, ipconfig/refresh to see if one of those could fix and leave parallels installed; nothing worked.

  • Great app, bad security

    By zhdiuornyg
    This app is very well built and filled with great features, but any time i want to actually use it, i found i have to login and do mfa all over again. Because Ive always been signed out before i need it, its simply too unreliable to use. You will have better luck with a vpn and a vnc app.

  • Works great

    but feels like it could benefit from an update

  • Has Never Worked

    I have a MacBook Pro and several PC desktops at home, this app has never once connected or been stable when away from the house. I cannot safely assume I can get into those machines using this. Parallels is good for being a windows option on Mac, but not a remote access software.

  • Useless if you have more than 1 display.

    1
    By LABeachGuy
    It only supports the primary display. If you have multiple displays, it’s supposed to aggregate open apps/windows on the primary display, but it doesn’t. Even if you force close apps remotely and reopen them, they open on other displays. But it gets worse, you can’t even access a parallels virtual machine (which might be running on 1 display). Mine, for example, always loads on the 2nd display. I guess if you run 1 display, it’s fine. In 2023, most of us don’t, so it’s an exercise in frustration. Who wants to physically unplug the other displays when they’re rushing out of their home or office? That’s the whole point of Remote Desktop. In the boards, Parallels advises users to just use the web portal. If you do that, though, you need to delete this app or it will load instead. In terms of user experience, web portals are just plain terrible on iOS b.c of browser limitations. They really need to fix this issue that’s been active in the parallels community for years. They have a great dev team (parallels desktop is incredible), so it’s just not a priority.

  • Slow

    By Xummies
    It’s a super slow lagging app. The connection is disconnected every so often it refreshes the user interface is cumbersome. It works sometimes on a Mac and work sometimes an iPad or a regular computer but it’s never really reliable. It’s always refresh rate that’s really liking all the time..
