What makes Remotly Desktop App special?

1

Image & Audio Quality

  • Pro Video Streaming: 4K over the cloud and P2P, with 5K and 6K support, HDR, 10-bit color and full 4:4:4 chroma for crisp text and faithful colors in office, graphics and CAD work.

  • Up to 240 FPS, Near‑Zero Latency: Smooth motion at up to 240 fps with zero or minimal streaming latency — built on Mirillis' Action! capture technology.

  • Hardware Codecs: Hardware H.264/AVC, HEVC (H.265) and AV1 encoding on the host and hardware decoding on the client, for low CPU and power usage.

  • Multi-Monitor: Work with up to 3 remote monitors with seamless switching, and change the remote computer's resolution straight from the client.

  • Virtual Display Adapter: Create virtual monitors on the remote computer — for example an extra desktop visible only inside the remote session.

  • Two‑Way Audio: Virtual Audio Driver captures remote sound; listen, adjust volume and microphone levels, and toggle the microphone mid‑session.

Connectivity

  • Three Ways to Connect: A unique 14-character connection code, permanent or time‑limited invitations, or your account and organization device list with online/offline status and filtering.

  • Direct P2P: Unlimited transfer and bitrate up to 100 Mbps over direct connections, with automatic UPnP port mapping or a manually chosen port.

  • Connect Anywhere Cloud: Relayed connections when a direct link is impossible, with file transfer up to 10 MB/s.

  • Connection Server Selection: Choose a preferred relay server — Remotly measures ping and server geolocation so you can pick the fastest one.

  • Multi-Connection: Connect to up to 8 remote computers at once, each in a separate window, or let up to 4 people join a single computer for joint service or training sessions.

  • Quality Control & Auto‑Reconnect: Adjust resolution, frame rate and bitrate per network type, watch the weak‑signal indicator, and let sessions reconnect automatically after a dropout.

3

Cybersecurity

  • End‑to‑End Encryption: AES-256 for data streams, TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3 transport with a Force TLS option, and RSA-4096 key exchange and authorization.

  • Device Authorization: The remote computer confirms every access request; unauthorized attempts are rejected.

  • IP Scoring & VPN Warning: Incoming requests are risk‑scored, and you are warned when the connecting party is hidden behind a VPN.

  • View‑Only or Full Control: The computer's owner or organization policy decides whether a session is view‑only or allows full remote control.

  • Connection Code Protection: Guessing attempts are blocked, the code can be hidden on screen, and code‑based connections can be disabled entirely.

  • Clipboard Control: Share the clipboard between computers or block it to control the flow of data.

Remote Work & Support Tools

  • Encrypted File Transfer: Fast, encrypted file transfer — up to 10 MB/s through the cloud, limited only by your link over P2P.

  • Voice Chat: Talk during the session with independent microphone and volume control, and mute the remote computer when needed.

  • Privacy Mode: Blank the remote screen and lock its mouse and keyboard so bystanders cannot see the desktop or interrupt your work.

  • Remote Camera & Recording: Preview the remote device's camera in unattended mode and record selected sessions on demand.

  • Power & Availability: Wake‑on‑LAN, forced wake‑up, remote restart, connection at the Windows sign‑in screen, and remote sleep, hibernate or lock when you are done.

  • Starts with Windows: The host launches with the system, so the computer is reachable right after boot — no user login required.

5

Native macOS Client

  • Metal / EDR Rendering: Native SwiftUI app with full HDR on Retina and XDR displays and VideoToolbox hardware decoding, including 10-bit and 4:4:4.

  • Wi‑Fi Optimizations: AWDL, AirDrop and Handoff are suspended for the duration of a session, eliminating image micro‑stutter.

  • Menu Bar & Full Screen: Control sessions from the macOS menu bar with automatic full‑screen mode and credentials stored in the Keychain.

  • Always Up to Date: Silent, digitally signed automatic updates, compatibility modes for weak links and automatic reconnection.

“We are squeezing the maximum out of all available encryption methods to make Remotly unbreakable.”
