MORE WAYS TO WORK

• On iPad, work on as many computers as you want at the same time, each in its own window. Touch and hold a computer, then tap Connect in new window.
• Pair a game controller and the host sees an Xbox controller, or use the on-screen controller with movable portrait and landscape layouts.

IMPROVEMENTS AND FIXES

• Wake-on-LAN sends fewer wake packets when you connect to a host.

• Fixed accented characters typed with a dead key coming out as separate characters, for example a~ instead of ã.
• Fixed Jump Desktop crashing every time it opened when a saved computer had no name.
• Fixed crashes when a session ends.
• Security updates.

FIXED IN 10.15.42

• Fixed RDP connections to older Windows versions, such as Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2 and Windows Server 2012, failing to connect.
• Fixed virtual displays being numbered Display 3 and Display 4 instead of Display 1 and Display 2.
