Reviews for Splashtop Personal

nice app. awesome for internal network remote contro,l and more if you pay the plans which are pretty good for the prices, 5 stars for me

I can actually use this app with my phone to control desktop. My previous remote desktop app made this pretty much impossible. Very happy with ux and responsiveness. Paid tier is very affordable. Very happy so far.

SCAM! BEWARE!! I bought this app for a 2 week trip overseas, and I only expected to pay once. Months later I noticed multiple odd charges which revealed the I had somehow subscribed to monthly payments of $4.99. Might not sound like much, but it adds up really quick. Not to mention its for an […]

Stopped working. I’ve used this app for years. But over the past few months, it hasn’t worked well. First, the remote keyboards special keys (CTRL, etc.) stopped functioning. Tech support couldn’t solve it. Now, when it connects to my PC, I only get a black screen. So, now, it’s useless. Too bad, it used to […]

For personal use this is exactly what I was looking for and more. We run a live stream server for an SDS200 scanner and sometimes it requires on the fly changes but I’m always on the road. This allows me log in to my PC just like I am at home. We also run a […]

I’ve had a good experience so far. I’ve tested 3 different remote apps. First, I tried Microsoft’s RD Client. It was way better than I expected with ultra smooth gesture controls and quick responses. It is unfortunately limited to local network. Second, I tried the tried TeamViewer. It works very well, and is easy to […]

Kudos to the developers. I’ve used other RD apps, including the official Microsoft one. I have a desktop downstair, which then I use the RD to access from upstair. With the Microsoft one, it was so laggy and it would often disconnet, not to mention, no way to handel the video. So, I initially thought […]

It was good. I used it frequently, but sometime… Maybe a year or so ago, the app stopped working when I connected from mobile. Things like, I would see display 2, no matter which display I told it to show. Black screens that won’t activate. Not connecting at all. Just a littany of issues since […]

They cleared up the stability problems there for a while, but over the last couple of days I have had problems where I’m not even able to connect to my PC, doesn’t matter which one of my computers, it just says failed to connect.. nothing’s wrong with the client on the other end.. My wife […]

This app works not well, but adequately in most cases. Even with advanced processing speeds though, it still pales in comparison to old school logmein on the desktop. If you are thinking about getting the app and integrating it with the remote desktop client, you’re likely to be disappointed. There’s a lot of lag in […]

Its an extremely helpful app, but its buggy across multiple devices. Sometimes the controls, particularly on monile track pad vs gesture won’t register, sometimes track pad spazzes and then goes back to gesture control. Sometimes gestures get stuck and lock as if you’re holding down to click and drag. PC, Samsung Note 9, Toshiba 10″ […]

I’ve been using this app for over 10 years. The software has never disappointed me in that time. I am a yearly subscriber and for the price I have never thought twice about it. I have used it for security reasons. I have used it just so I’d not have to take my 3k laptop […]

Its that smooth. I have bought and used several remote desktop apps and i am by far more satisfied with Splashtop by a long shot. Simply look no further. Update 3 years later: I still love this remote access tool. Especially when used for applications that need higher frame rates such as games. I’m able […]

Great when it works. But it’s been getting worse month after month. At least a few times a week now I try to log into my computer from somewhere in my house to do a menial task. But I’m greeted with a black screen and no functionality when connected. Fighting with it trying to get […]

Just what I wanted! I almost didn’t download because reviews were (INCORRECTLY) saying you couldn’t control the remote computer. Huh? That would make this almost useless. But it works just as well as going desktop to desktop! I use it in landscape mode, and my PC screen is perfectly represented. I have thus far only […]

Not Bad. Almost Perfect. I have the personal version for less than $20/yr. I’m not complaining at all. There’s a little trade off of picture quality for speed, but it’s quite adequate. The controls are good once you understand them. Depending on what you are doing, it’s really great, or it can be quite challenging […]

This app is not as good as it use to be. The keyboard is absolutely horrible. It won’t let you type one letter at a time, only as full words then you have to press enter to insert the words into the text box. Also they limit you to having 5 devices connected to your […]

This is an edited review. I’ve kept using splashtop because it works well on mobile and I can switch to a PC easily if I need to. One other issue is that typing on a mobile phone connected to a PC running a Virtual Machine will not have all of their key presses forwarded to […]

It’s awesome being able to do stuff with my computer even while I’m away from it. Tho it’s not perfect, at least as far as the controls. The app’s scroll wheel has no option to click it in, and I can’t adjust how much or how little it scrolls. For some reason while running a […]

Had used for years for free on the same network. Finally subscribed earlier this year and I use it *all the time.* So great to be able to use my much more powerful desktop computer, which stays at home, from my budget laptop and phone, able to run all my programs from anywhere. Wish I […]
