Mocha VNC Lite Positive Reviews

UPGRADE version of VNC Lite features loss of scroll buttonUsing the free VNC Lite 1.1, I was able to help my mother, who is in another state, resolve a problem on her Mac by connecting to her desktop and looking at it. I moved some files from her desktop to the trash and deleted them, and the problem (she was getting a message stating "0 kb available") was resolved. If I should ever find a need for the ability to do more extensive remote interaction with my own or her computer, I'll happily upgrade to the full version. HOWEVER, I subsequently upgraded to VNC LITE v. 2.0 as it claimed "better screen control" as its new feature. But, whereas v. 1.1 had a scroll button (in the shape of a pointing finger), v. 2.0 does NOT have a scroll button that I can find. Whereas I do see a bit better control in navigating AROUND the screen, without the scroll button I could not find a way to move open windows or other icons around ON the screen. This seems to me a step back in functionality. I deleted v. 2.0 from my iPhone and synced to my computer, as I still had v. 1.1 stored in iTunes, and reinstalled v.1.1. When they replace the scroll button or provide instructions on how to utilize the lost functionality, I'll consider upgrading again..Robert1014Version: 0

Fixed!The time limit was raised to 5 minutes. Thank you! Honestly this is the most useful app that I have. I manage my Plex server and run ThinVNC on it. This app works perfectly. The controls and mouse clicks work well and I've been very happy with it. On average it takes about 5-10 seconds to connect and then I'm off doing whatever I need to do. I can right-click on taskbar icons and everything. I'd buy the full version if it was just a little bit cheaper..CapnJack78Version: 4.6

Touch screen macOSI have three Mac Pros in a studio. Almost everyday I need to be in another part of the studio but still need to have Finder access to my host and slave Macs. I use Mocha VNC 4.4 as a part of my daily workflow. I wish Apple included Remote Desktop into iOS, but we have Mocha VNC thankfully. With the 12.9” iPad Pro and its large real estate I can freely move around and comfortably continue to work. I’m giving version 4.4 5-stars. I’m not sure their reasoning for providing a free lite version then suddenly giving it a 2 minute time period within a decimal upgrade, especially when many people have app upgrade on automatic. Luckily I don’t. I’m glad I read the description for 4.5 first. I feel that was a little sneaky. Perhaps so many people were happy enough with the Lite version they weren’t paying for the full version. Still, it could have been handled a little better. That being said, it’s only $5.99. And for an app that it a part of my daily workflow, I obviously have no problem paying. I like the features the full version adds, (mouse support- hopefully local, a Bluetooth mouse connected to my iPad Pro and fully controlling macOS just as if I was in front of Mac - I need to read the description further), Mouse Easy, and encrypted sign on. Question: Does Mocha VNC support Mission Control via function keys, the default F3 key (hasn’t worked for me), , macros or mouse gestures? I hope so. That’s something I need. I have two monitors connected to my host Mac Pro, and each monitor has at least four desktops via Mission Control, plus I use Screen Sharing in a full screen desktop to access my Mac slaves. It would be nice if a simple swipe gesture would allow me to easily move between desktops spaces. Regardless, my reason for writing a review is to say that I much fancy this solution which keeps macOS touch-screen free, than Windows 10. IMO, touchscreens are only ergonomically feasible if they can lay flat on a surface. Plus it enhances the Apple eco-system which I fully use and embrace, (AirPlay, iCloud and AirDrop). Anything Mocha VNC can add to improve functionality with these workflows would be very helpful. Thanks to the developer for making a VNC app that doesn’t require me to create an account, or sign up for a service like many of the other developers do. I will never support those apps where possible. Please keep Mocha VNC account-based free, and support Mission Control and the Apple eco-system (of you already don’t). I will be purchasing more MochaSoft apps..Stevesteele.comVersion: 4.6

Fantastic app works greatI have a Mac Mini that is headless that I use for a music server. The Remote app is okay but has limits. I already had VNC set up so I could access though my computer. I looked for the iPad remote version but it was the same as the one for the iPhone. Then I found this. I think most of the negative reviews are from people that don't fully understand how to set up VNC on their system or those that access across subnets or the internet which can be problematic for users that don't have experience with that aspect, I can't speak to those users, but if you use this on a local network and have VNC working on a computer this will set up in less than a minute, it is flawless. This is the best app I have downloaded yet. As stated above, it took me less than a minute to get this to work on my system. I entered the IP address and password and it was up and running. There are also added benefits, if I want to see flash, I can VNC to the mini and enter the address and view over this. I really can't figure out why this would have any negative reviews. Now I have full access to itunes and everything else on my headless mini from my iPad. What a great app. Edit to add, I am going to buy the full version but for free this is the best deal going..RjgogoVersion: 0

Works BeautifullyI was really impressed with this app! Although it's not perfect, I gave it five stars because it's free and really gives you a lot of bang for your buck (espeically since your not paying a buck). I have a laptop that often travels with me, but keep the bulk of my files on my ext hard drive, which stays in my office. As such, I have a desktop computer always running at home in my office, which I use as a bluetooth server to backup my external HD. Now when I'm on the road with my laptop packed away, I can still access the files backed up on my desktop through my iPhone. This works perfectly with RealVNC. In fact, I even installed the real VNC viewer on my laptop so I can remotely control my desktop from across the room. The only thing it to remember to set whatever VNC program you are using as an exception in your firewall or you won't be able to connect from your iPhone and won't know why. Unfortunatley, I don't have a need for more functionality so there's no incentive for me to purchase VNC pro, but I may anyway just to reward the developers for creating such an excellent app..NysalesmanVersion: 0

Not too darned bad...Being way too lazy to get off the couch one day to reboot a system in another room, I decided to search the App store for a free VNC client. MochaSoft's VNC Lite was the only such app and with that hearty recommendation, I decided to give it a try. Let me say that I'm pleasantly surprised. I'm running v.2.1, so far have two XP-based systems in my connections list, and this app is doing what I wanted it to do. I don't miss a CTRL-ALT-DEL key option or anything like that. And I'm able to manage and manipulate programs on my client computers pretty much the same way as I do when I'm sitting in front of them, provided I don't try to do anything too elaborate. The one thing I wish could be improved would be a better refresh speed. I sat here at my desk, VNC'ed in to the computer in front of me, and it took almost ten seconds for the VNC screen to reflect what was on the big monitor in front of me. But, beggars can't be choosers. Great app - thanks!.BubbaXVersion: 0

The definitive app for road warriors and system adminsThis is the app that will finally let many people leave their laptops at home. While the iPhone's small screen is not the best for getting a lot of work done, the ability to access every file and every application on your home or work computer is amazingly convenient. Wheter you need a file, to look up info in a database or spreadsheet, or generate a report you can now access it all from your iPhone. I have been using VNC for years to administer systems for clients ad it often saves me hours of driving to make a simple change, but it still required bringing a laptop along and having high speed access for it. This app seems very responsive and it is easy to scroll and zoom. It would probably be sluggish on edge because VNC clients are receiving the entire screen image from your computer but on wifi it works great and I will soon test it on 3G. One word of advice: set it up before you leave to make sure all your settings work correctly. There are good instructions on the developer's website..ChrisN75Version: 0

Work fineI downloaded this little app with some reservation due to all the negative reviews. I set up my MacBookPro to accept VNC connections in about 1 minute and logged onto it using this app about 2 minutes later!! The iPads screen resolution is less than your computer so obviously you'll have to scroll around a bit but the interface seemed to work ok over my local network. I'm not exactly sure how to right click but then I probably need to RTFM. I was also able to connected to a horrible windows vista machine no problem. So anyone who says this FREE app doesn't work is probably not setting it up correctly. Setting up any type of VNC server is going to require some reading and research (hint check your windows firewall setting, anti virus apps or router) unless you want to pony up $30 for those zero config apps so please read the bloody manual before you post negative comments or better still get your bespeckeled basement dwelling computer nerd cousin to help you!!! In years past I too have spent hours tooling around with routers and firewalls trying to get stuff like this to work so you have been warned !!!.NoisyTrumpetVersion: 0

More good than bad- or is it the other way around?I discvrd via the app store i could convert my iphone into a mouse. at first i thought for what? but i soon had a need for it. i initially checked out jumimouse and although it worked the pointer would fly all over my main screen or sometimes just dance around in directions completely opposite of what i wanted. i decided to check out VNC and it seemed like a very confusing and technical process just to get it up and running. long story short; i installed the entire thing (both on my iphone and pc in under 10 mints. no kidding. since my goal was only to get my phone to act as a mouse (watch a lot movies online and sometimes want to pause/rew/for etc without walking back to the other side of the room) i COMPLETELY missed the part i can also view everything on my monitor right on my iphone. (practically a mirror image. i think this is really great product, it more then served its purpose. my only concerns are security ones. there is the encrypted password option, but i hope additional security measures are added to this app..HKlatinGUYVersion: 0

WOWOWOWOWOW :)Ummm what can I say... SOOOOO impressed with free application can not wait to buy version (hopefully modestly priced, PUH-LEASE Mocha) I can just imagine that time that I am traveling and forgot to save a file to idisk and want to show someone an image from my desktop or forgot to upload those pesky notes for my next meeting.... 2 quips... it was a little slow for me and I couldn't use scroll bar for lists :( I am not an uber tech that can understand what sort of time I can expect it to take for my phone and mac to have their little convo and make it so that a change takes place but i saw an instant change on my mac and my phone took quite a while to reflect the change even over wifi connection....and I couldn't use the scroll bar to scroll down my applications list on my desktop, nor could i access my toolbar.... but holy cow how useful..... TYTYTY from the girl that always seemed to forget her homework on the dining room table.... Can't wait to see the new version and mocha tech rep please contact me so I can learn more about your amazing product :).LeahClarkVersion: 0

I'll give it five for a free appI got the free version just to try it out. It took me only minutes to set up connections with both my (Ubuntu) desktop and laptop. Couldn't be simpler; entered the IP addresses and the passwords, hit Connect, and I was all set. Over wifi, I can use my 1280x800 laptop with 32-bit colour, but the desktop has dual displays and the resolution is high, so it runs the phone low on memory after a short time. The desktop is quite useable at 8-bit, though, if not precisely pretty, and that's no fault of the app itself. I'm taking it out for a test-run outside my home network, but I've already set up port-forwarding on the router, so I don't anticipate any problems; it'll just be slower than wifi. I'm giving it five stars because it works well and has all the functionality I really need, for free. That said, I'll buy the full version. Not because I really need the extra features, but because the price is very reasonable and I want to support the developers..Mean and PinchyVersion: 0

Great ApplicationI find it hillarious how most of you are complaining about Bait and Switch. Especially since you havent paid for ANYTHING! A free app should always have its limitations unless its open source and its only fair to the developer to pay for something they spent time and money on. The developer appears to simply be making a change to the product so it can be sold in a way that it was originally intended. I never had the previous version of the software installed as I just got my iPhone, but I really like the free version and plan on paying for the full version to get the full functionaility. Right after install, it worked amazingly well with an existing UltraVNC install I had on WinXP. I was shocked as to how well it worked over wifi, and its not too bad over 3G. Only complaint is that it does warn me of Low memory, but I can still work around that. Great Job MochaSoft, and I would ignore these complaints as well. You will never make everyone happy, but you have made my day. :) Thanks!.TheWorkzVersion: 0

FantasticThis app is absolutely fantastic. There are some minor scrolling enhancments to be corrected hopefully in the pay version. Which I am patiently waiting for. I knew nothing about VNC, but as a result of reading these comments, I downloaded TightVNC and installed it, ( not as a service ). My system is a Windows XP SP3. I then adjusted my firewall to allow in port 5900. Downloaded the Mocha VNC Lite app, and added it to my iPhone. Once all was installed, I opened TightVNC, changed my password, and by holding the mouse over the PC tray Icon, saw what the IP address was. Then open iPhone app VNC Lite, used the IP address, and changed the password to what I used in TightVNC. Then [ Connect ], and instantly my home omputer desktop page appeared then I executed Excel & other programs, no problems at all. Also remember that [ EDGE ] didn't work for me, I had to use wireless. Sorry for the long winded comment, but still awed by the app. This process worked for me, may not work for everyone..IPhone-1.0Version: 0

Works well with Mac/iPadUsing the built in remote screen control in mac os x configured to allow vnc clients this worked well with my iPad. In the configuration screen of this app you cannot scroll down the bottom of the options while the keyboard is popped up. Other than that all works as listed. The picture looks great when sized any way. Mouse precision is very good. I wish I could view the mouse when it is moved by the host machine. The mouse pointer only updates when you move it through the Mocha VNC client. I'd like a way to size to fit exactly my ipad screen even if it messes up the aspect ratio of the screen, and multi touch on the screen shouldn't resize, it'd be best if it could be used to scroll a page like when using a laptop mouse pad. Thank you for offering this for free. I did not have any memory problems as many have mentioned. Maybe because I'm using Mac's built in VNC server rather than one from the people that sell VNC server..Turbo240ZVersion: 0

Outstanding application and easy to use!In using remote control on mobile devices, this is hands-down the best one I've used so far. I can even access my Linux box. I've used old PocketPCs, the Zaurus, and all versions of Windows Mobile phones with all forms of RDC and VNC. The zoom, panning, and keyboard controls are perfectly suited for the iPhone. The app is best suited on a wifi connection. You'll get frustrated over Edge...I don't have the 3G yet so I cannot comment on that experience. If you're familiar with VNC, you'll be very satisfied. It's strange to read any negativity around this product being that it's free. If you don't have a jailbroken phone, this is your only option but they did a great job! For those unfamiliar with VNC, you'll need to install the service in order to access your computer. Go to MochaSoft's website under the FAQs for reference and download links..StvsanVersion: 0

Works great and without hassleThis program does exactly what it promises without any hassle or complications. I followed the directions on the developer's home page and was connected to my computer within 3 minutes via Wi-fi. It works exactly as you might expect letting you open/view/delete files etc. (depending on your computer settings) just as if you were sitting in front of your computer. Screen refresh was amazingly fast and I was very pleased to see how smoothly the zooming/panning was implemented. Best of all, it's free. Based on the other reviews it seems that if you want to connect to a windows machine you might need the paid version to gain access to the "del" key, but for connecting to mac via Apple Remote Desktop, this is not needed. Even if you had to pay for it it'd be a great deal, but for free? It's amazing!.MaimaipandaVersion: 0

Does exactly what I needI installed Mocha VNC Lite on my iPhone and TightVNC on my Vista destop and the setup and configuration of everything took less than two minutes. Mocha VNC Lite does what I need in a VNC client and that's the ability to control my desktop and read documents while on the job. Network admins controlling servers remotely should use either Mocha VNC or Jaadu VNC, both of which offer more features. You have to option to install TightVNC as a program or a service, and those with any security concerns should install it only as a program and launch TightVNC only if you know you will need it that day before leaving for the office. Those without security concerns should install it as a service and allow it to run on boot. Both Mocha VNC Lite and TightVNC have worked flawlessly for me so far. You really can't beat Mocha VNC Lite for the price. Larry.MikekzVersion: 0

Good, but hangs up on OS 3.0The program is great, but after the iPhone OS 3.0 upgrade, the VNC program hangs up often. It seems to be during a first connection attempt to a computer via the connection medium for a session. That is, either 3G&VPN to a server, or WiFi direct internal. Selecting the server hangs the program. Hit the Home button to quit, then rerun the MochaVNC and you can't get a connection list at all. Keep quitting and rerunning until a connection list can be brought up, and -then- it seems to work, but only for the Server you did before. Tedious but I guess it works. I emailed the developer who just said Apple broke it with VNC for OS 3.0. So yeah Apple might have some responsibility, but MochaSoft: please look into making it work again and not just hoping Apple changes something that randomly makes it work in 3.0.1 months from now!.Mem10123Version: 0

Doesn't do everything, but does enough for freeThis app lets me see the desktop of my windows box. I don’t use it a whole lot, but often enough that I want to keep it where I can get to it easily. I mainly use it when I’ve forgotten to start my Shelfserver, or for remote-controlling a movie playing through my computer when I’m across the room on the sofa. There is also a paid version of this app for $5.99, but I’ve never seen the point to upgrading when the Lite version does all I need. The one problem with it is that it needs a lot of memory to run, and will often complain that you need to reboot your device to get more memory if you have low memory when you run it—which is to say, almost any time you run it at all. (Of course, you don’t actually need to reboot to free up memory—just use the iPhone app MemoryInfo.).Robotech_MasterVersion: 0

The new version is worse than the oldI used to love this app. It was probably my favorite app for the iPod Touch. But after I updated to the newest version of the app, a feature has actually been taken off. It wasn't replaced with another, just taken off. The thing that was taken off was a button on the bottom right (in the pictures, you can probably see a button missing in the bottom right). The button let you click and drag, not just click. It turned on dragging or turned it off, so that when in "click mode" when you drag it will move your perspective of the screen (what part you are looking at). Now it is stuck in "click mode". Don't get me wrong, I still love this app (I'm giving it 4 stars not 5), but not as much. Why would someone take off a feature?.Nickname99999Version: 0

Unusably slow when connecting to a large displayThis seems at first like a nice app, but refreshing is so slow when connecting to a computer with a large display that in practice the app is unusable. To be more specific, it works slowly but acceptably when connecting to my MacBook Pro (1440 x 900 pixels), but too slowly to use when connecting to my MacPro (2560 x 1600 pixels, which it clips to 1680 x 1200). If I change my computer's display to 640x 480 pixels before "leaving home", then it works well, but that's a clumsy workaround. I'm sure there are ways to fix this performance problem, and I encourage the developers to work on it. For example, there is no reason to refresh parts of the computer's display that the iPhone can't currently see. If the user pans (with a finger drag), then new material would be downloaded to the iPhone..Marc LevoyVersion: 0

Great for windows not for mac throughOkay windows yes is what I call lesser than mac os x 10.5 but my mac mini shows the mouse keyboard and plus buttons over my dock making it harder to click on my icons on the macs dock so I use my dell studio 15 inch labtop and vista and XP have no dock just the start bar button at the bottom which is perfectally next to the keyboard icon and windows users my dell works on vnc with 32 bit on or off but off is lower quality and 32 bit on is way outstanding quality but I must add this acts like a really slow CRT when opening a application or using macro to view videos or other moving media or a pop up or closing somthing it acts like that real slow and CRT like so I would like to see faster macro support and better mac OS accomdations in the next update on this application..XXxSimplyxXxUrxXxMomxXxVersion: 0

Great app. Few suggestions.I think you should be able to scroll through lists in applications (iTunes for example). In mobile safari when there is a scrollable list inside a web page you use two fingers to scroll. I think this should be implemented. So two finger swiping=scroll wheel functionality. Another thing is when your in the mode where every swipe is a press of a mouse (like when you can't navigate around the screen) the place where you put your finger is lower than where the software registers a click. Another suggestion that i dont know whether it is technically possible or not is transfer of sound. Also I recommend ultraVNC over tightVNC and realVNC as the response time is significantly better..Israel102Version: 0

Not bad for freeIt took me about 20 minutes to figure out how to set this up, but once I did everything worked great. I'd love to see the display settings improved, as I run dual monitors and display 2 is chopped nearly in half. It would also be great to see more information on how to set up forwarding to allow this to work on a system connected to a router. I can see many newbies to networking hitting a roadblock there. It is well worth checking out if you need remote access to your home computer. I just started a defrag process on my Windows Xp system from 20 miles away with no problems. The paid version is dirt cheap, so I may upgrade in just a matter of days if everything continues to work ok..Box13shaneVersion: 0

A Must HaveI use the lite version and it works great. Just the other day I had to call the office and get someone to email a file while I was in the field. First thing I did when I got back to the office is set up dydns, screen sharing and set up VNC lite. Now if I need to access files on my office system I use VNC (or ftp). As of this writing, and posted on their web site, there is a problem with version 2.2 and Snow Leopard displaying only about 10px at the top of the screen -- so 2.3 is being reviewed by Apple. 2.2 still works fine with earlier version of OS/X. Make sure though you understand router and OS/X security (especially firewall and access privs) before setting up VNC, FTP or anything else or you will risk leaving a big security hole in your system!.Mov ax,1/int 21hVersion: 0

I personally don't see anything wrong..I don't no what ur all complaining about I mean this is free. And a great practical joke. With this app you can controll your computer. If u are at a friends house and have to show him/her something you can simply get on this app. YOU NEEd WiFi!! This app is really hard to set up!! Not the iPod part but the computer part. You have to download vnc on ur computer and that isn't easy. I can see how it can get aggrivating if someone is on the computer also controlling it but that's the joke. The no right Click and click and drag feature is a letdown. Now u have to buy it ! Sooooo. Yes this app is 5 stares but the setup is 2 stars. ;(..Luckyshawn7Version: 0

Awesome..and even better FREE!!This is awesome! It took me a while to figure it out because I didn't know what the VNC password was but I finally got it! Here's instructions for the Mac: 1. To find your IP address just go to google and type in "Find my IP address" and click on one. It will tell you. 2. To enable your Sharing on your computer go to: Apple in top left corner, system pref., sharing, and enable your Apple Remote Desktop by checking it. A screen will pop up where you create your VNC password. 3. After you create your password, put it in your phone, and connect! Hope this helps anyone having some trouble!.Whitaker1009Version: 0

Great on iPad if you turn off the low memory warningsI read the other iPad reviews that complain about the memory problem and I had it too. I turned off the memory warnings and the performance is great. They take nice advantage of the iPad screen real estate. Also tried it on my iPhone 3G and had no memory issues. I highly recommend this app. Am purchasing the paid app. Fix the memory error issue and will give this 5 stars. For those of you with iPads not surer how to turn off the memory error messages, go into the connection settings for your connection and look for the option to turn off warnings for low memory..Juan9569Version: 0

Give me a breakI use VNC lite and I love it. It does exactly what I want it to do, I log onto Macs & PC's and it works the way it should. In fact, I like the older version better than the new version, I liked the ability to turn off the mouse so that I could look at my son's computer without him knowing I was "looking over his shoulder." The new version makes that more difficult, but I just downloaded it yesterday, and I'm still working on it. I'm going to go ahead and buy the full version, even though the lite does what I need, I feel I should pay for something that I find so useful..Graphic3211Version: 0

Impressive that it works, showed some serious problemsUsing OSXvnc (the VNC server I've had installed for ages), Mocha VNC Lite was able to connect and provide basic access to my machine. Even with the "Use Mac OS X Keyboard" option turned on, however, the VNC Lite app didn't seem to know how to send a "shift" -- typing a '?' on my iPhone resulted in a '/' showing up on my server machine. Similarly, ! was interpreted as 1, ( and ) as 9 and 0, and so on. Capital letters were also impossible to type. This is potentially a crippling bug. I do not know, however, if it was simply due to my particular VNC server software, or something inherent to Mocha VNC Lite. If I have occasion to experiment with other software, I'll update my report and score..K A SVersion: 0

Original, one of a kind, easy to use, and AWESOMEAs of now, there are so many "revalutionary remote apps." ALL of them have a problem, except this app. They are all either only compatible with a PC, take a heck of a long time to set up, or just DON'T WORK. This app is compatible with not only leopard, but tiger, Vista, XP, and other windows systems. Not only that, but the other apps mostly don't even display a screen. They just control the computer! Finally, this app's lite version is not as efficient as the full, but still does the job in a way that rivals other paid apps! Excellent work!!!.Flafla2Version: 0

Nicely done!Mocha VNC does what it ought to. I VPN to my office's network, connect to my PC with VNC, and I can work on my XP box from my iPhone. The zooming and scrolling and such make it a little inconvenient to do any real work on a screen the size of the iPhone's, but if I really needed to get at something on my office computer while I was away, it would service nicely in a pinch. Over Wi-Fi it's highly responsive. It did crash out the first time I used it, but the second time it worked like a charm. My only complaint is that when it resizes my screen (my work PC is 1920x1200) it still crops off part of the window. Otherwise, a very handy little freebie!.ARothmanMusicVersion: 0

Good, but needs larger desktop supportIt's a very nice start. It complains about my work desktop being too large (it's 1920x1200) and that it will "cut" it to 1680x1200, but it always ends up black. However, it works nicely at home with my 1680x1050 desktop. I like that you can move the screen past the edges to get to menus and icons where some of the Mocha controls are. Not everyone would have thought of that. I may purchase the full version when it supports larger desktops. Can't do much work with this, but it's handy for transferring a file or for a few simple operations. The app also crashes a lot--about 50% of my trials, but that might be because of the large desktops..ShadowbqbVersion: 0

Here is how toDownload app from ur iPhone or apple store. Download vnc on ur computer. After install there will be an option to create a password n another one to add ur iphone's IP or any other IP otherwise choose the other option so u can have access from any computer. After u do that make sure u know the password, ur computer IP and the port number (Which should be 5900 or something like that) and check if a new icon was created next to the clock (windows) go to ur app on ur iPhone and type all the information. Press connect n that's it. It worked for me on my first try. :).JeanPi1404Version: 0

ImpressiveWorks great for me on both my Mac Mini running Tiger (with Apple Remote Desktop enabled) and my G4 Powerbook running Leopard (with Screen Sharing enabled). Pinch zoom makes navigation easy on large remote screen sizes. Though this client app can handle a screen size only up to 1600 x 1200 (an impressive capability in and of itself), I can still access most of the 1920 x 1080 screen on my Mac Mini, enough to make it quite useable. Suggestion to Developer: Add arrow keys to the keyboard (the normal iPhone keyboard doesn't have them!). Thank you for this powerful and most useful app! For those of you having trouble connecting: Typical VNC port numbers start at 5900 and include 5901 and 5902. All users should make sure these ports are open in the firewall on their remote machine. Mac users should make sure that ARD or Screen Sharing is enabled, and you'll find the password setting in the Advanced option for these services. PC users might also consider Googling for other VNC servers for their remote machine if necessary..AllMacSince1984Version: 0

Works with LionIt works, but there's some tweaking you have to do that isn't well documented or explained really anywhere. Here's how to get a Lion mac working with the new 3.0 release: In the app, go to main/first page then click configure. Next select the Lion mac(s). The third option on this page should read "Mac OS X sign on". Slide this to ON. All that's left is to fill out the Mac OS X user and Mac OS X password fields with your mac's log on information. Things worked like before for me after this fix. Good fix Mocha, just please put a step by step ANYWHERE on your website. That would be helpful..Mark HitzhusenVersion: 3.0

Almost, but not quite thereFour stars for being the first working VNC client (the only thing I really need on my iPhone that it doesn't come with out of the box), and being free no less, but currently it cannot access the right hand end of a 1920x1200 display (limited to 1680x1200 because of Apple UI scrolling widget limits supposedly), and no multi-monitor support. It really must support at least a full 1920x1200 desktop, even if they have to abandon the sexy scrolling screen. I'd be happy to have a mode that required scrolling in steps or something if it would let me access my whole screen..AllTheGoodOnesWereTakenVersion: 0

Great app, good businessI've been using this app since the App Store debuted. This is the app that completely "changed everything" for me, in terms of what a phone/iPod could REALLY be. I've been using the Lite version for months, with the forgotten guilt of not paying MochaSoft for their work. Personally, I applaud them for removing some of the functionality of the Lite version. It finally gave me a good reason to reimburse this developer for their hard work and hours of productivity I have already gained from this app. Thank you for keeping my karma in line..DelhuxVersion: 0

Incredible App... Almost.Having GoToMyPC on an iPod Touch FOR FREE... Now that's just awesome. The app does everything it says it does. It was a bit difficult to set up, but when I saw it working, I was blown away. It does have a few problems, though. The screen refresh rate is VERY slow, so bye bye flash games on iPod. (Of course, I didnt expect that to be great.) Also, I don't think right clicking should be a paid feature. Finally, I wish there was a way to click and drag. I know that could be confused with scrolling, but I think there could be a switch between scrolling and dragging..YeggogVersion: 0

Works good.It is easy to set up and is quick. I have no problem paying a developer for a good product that they spent time on. I am trying to decide between mocha and jaadu. Price differecne doesn't matter. I just want the better product. I wish jaadu had a trial/lite version like this to compare. Just because of that I'll probably just get the full version of mocha. Also for the person who said it only works on your local network... you can easily fix that. Just log into your router and enable port forwarding and have it forward to your local ip..BrandosonVersion: 0

Mocha lite vs. Other programsThis is a great app. I have used other apps including touch pad pro when I had my phone unlocked and this works better for Zero cost. I have had a few problems getting this app to save my settings but don't let it discourage you. For free I never expected an app to be so responsive. It makes simple tasks easy to do from anywhere and it's great if your lazy or have a desktop computer you wish to use from outside. This is a very powerful application and it has the potential to out preform the keyboard and mouse if you get used to it..Vnc masterVersion: 0

Very cheap move by developerRidiculous. This app was good for a while, and then (just as all the other reviews are stating) they stripped it of most of the features (like the Command key, the ability to change mouse/scrolling modes, etc). Very very poor and lousy move on the developer's part. They've just lost a potential customer, as I was considering purchasing the full version of this app to show my support. Somebody who uses shady tactics like this to make a quick buck on the App Store will NOT EVER get my buck. Sorry..Ben.kreegerVersion: 0

Impressive App!It's amazing this app is free! It works flawlessly over the 3G network - sure there's a 0.5 sec lag, but it doesn't bother me in the least. For users having trouble getting this to work, on XP you need to install RealVNC Server which is a small Windows application; all you need to do is set a password - you can leave everything else as default. If it still hangs when connecting, you might have a firewall and need to open port 5900 in your Windows Firewall Settings and your router. Thank you MochaSoft!.CanadaPostVersion: 0

What the ...I am definately 100% not buying your full version after pulling something like that. For those who haven't downloaded the new update don't it removes the ability to use the mouse making this app basically useless. Not very smart considering you pissed off all your potential customers. The only way I will buy the full version is if the price gets lowered to about 1 to 2 dollars. Good job hope your happy Devs. 1 star. Ok I take the above back after messing around with this app I realized I can still click and use the mouse. The missing mouse button at the bottom made me think it got removed. But I still think the full version's price should be lowered..YungBuckVersion: 0

Full Version Soon?From what I've been able to try of the Lite version, this app is what I've spent the last 3 days trying to find and get functioning. I've tried other Browser based VNC methods to no avail. This app was simple to configure, and even easier to use. If only I could use CTRL+ALT+DEL. 32 bit over 3G crashed my iPhone, but worked great over WiFi. 16 bit worked great over 3G (so far). Hope Apple approves the Full Version soon.

Easy setup works well but..Wish it had a cursor or dot, then click as closing windows or minimizing is super hard as a finger click is a bit inaccurate.

Mocha VNC Lite Negative Reviews

Not for anyone without a phd in computer scienceIf you are not an IT professional good luck sorting through this maze of passwords, protocols, IP addresses, and menu upon menu upon confusing menu. It might also help to be able to reverse engineer what appears to be some kind of translation error in some of the instructions. I ended up feeling like my computer was going to be accessible by who knows who, but certainly not by me..Diptych.Version: 5.5

Unusable and hard to followFeels half hearted. Doesn’t work well and has terrible instructions. Eg how do you leave a session i had to kill the app to get out of a VNC session..DrUnifexVersion: 4.7

2.0 is a big step backwards.UPDATE: version 2.0 takes away the ability to toggle mouse control on and off. It is far less responsive, and cannot zoom out for a full screen view. DO NOT UPDATE. Cutting back rating from 3 stars to 1. Original Review: At the time of this writing, this was the only free VNC viewer available for the iPhone. As other reviewers have pointed out, it is somewhat crippled. You can't send certain keys, like Ctrl-Alt-Del, and you cannot use the right mouse button. Once you get past all that, this app does what is left nicely. (EDIT: NOT SO WITH V. 2.0, see update above) With my iPhone connected via wifi to my home network, the speed with which I could access my home PC's surprised me. Looks pretty good, too. You can use the standard iPhone gestures to move around the screen, and zoom in or out. This could cause the remote cursor to move around a lot, so they provide a button you can press to suspend control of the remote system's mouse. (EDIT: NO LONGER SO, SEE ABOVE) Tap it again when you are ready to take back control of the mouse. Functionality is plain vanilla. There is no chat support, no ftp support (though I dont know what you would have on your iPhone that you would want to uplaod), and no support for encryption plugins like the ones supported by the UltraVNC server. Still, it is pretty decent.... (EDIT: NO LONGR SO).Caa100Version: 0

This is a "shell" game App... pretends to be one thing but ends up anotherThis App is purely a tool for selling RealVNC. It doesn't tell you up front that this App does not work with the "Free Personal Trial Version" of the RealVNC software. Hidden in the FAQ is where it states that they have found that you need to use the "RealVNC Enterprise Edition". When you click to download the "free trial", after the software has loaded and you start it for the first time, it tells you that your "Free Trial" time has expired. Ironically it is supposed to be a 30 Day Free Trial. If this is the case, then all our calendars should read April 1, 2015. I started the process and then 9 minutes later I was told my "30 Day Free Trial" had expired but I could purchase a new license if I want to continue to use "RealVNC". I actually never got to test this App, since I couldn't even use the RealVNC program that they push in this App's documentation. Oh, by the way, RealVNC is also the ONLY VNC Program that the App Designer says works properly with thier "Mocha VNC"... sounds to me like it is a "Mocha Lotta $hit".LychanPredVersion: 0

Too sslow. Jerks, stalls and complete mystery hangs.This app is simply not usable. Even at free, I'm afraid that it's too expensive. It starts slowishly -- though that's just true of 2.x in general, so can't give this app too many demerits for that. But, after it starts up it is just perpetually bogged down trying to keep up with screen refreshes and mouse moves. I've tried it with three different VNC distributions but there is no difference on Mocha VNC Lite. The interface is simplified, which is a nice thing -- but it's quite confusing to try to figure out where you are in it and if you're going to get a mouse-click or a screen move when you touch the iPod screen. I used VNsea quite a lot on 1.1.4 and, though it had it's little quirks and hiccups, it was generally smooth and, once connected, fairly reliable. I wish this was somewhere near that good. I'd happily pay $5 to have VNsea back. If this is supposed to be a low-priced come-on for the pay version; it fails. It's really just not usable..XXPepperVersion: 0

Right idea, very poor executionI am glad to see a VNC app in the store though I had one before, from installer that worked a million times better than this one. This one is buggy and rigid. There is no naming option for your connections list - meaning you have to remember which IP addresses belongs to what machine. The app crashes unexpectedly; semi-frequently. I can understand no right-click support to make us eventually buy the full version, but no inclusion of Ctrl Alt Dlt is crazy. Unless your windows machine is unlocked ALL the time then the app becomes completely worthless. It's nice to tie into the machine and stare at the login window without being able to do anything else.../sarcasm They had the right idea and i AM glad there is at least this VNC app - but hopefully they don't think their job is finished and they plan to do an update. Or maybe the people that created TouchPad Pro from Installer will put something together for the App Store - i would buy that in a second..WastedAndReadyVersion: 0

From a 5 Star App to a 1 Star AppI have never written an iPhone app review until now, but after this  2.0 update I feel obligated. This app was perfect. Absolutely no changes needed to be made. However, when this update came out I rushed to install it so see what improvements were possible. Big mistake! Every change is horrible, reduces functionality, and in some cases removes it entirely. The previous version felt like a finished, well designed piece of software, but after this update it now feels like a beta or a first effort. If this update is an improvement in the developer's eyes then I must say I can't support their efforts in the future. This is one of my most used apps so I definitely had to downgrade. Does the developer work for Microsoft? I wouldn't be surprised because this update has a severe case of Vista syndrome!.EarljackVersion: 0

Has potential, not there yet.I have been waiting for a program like this and the many good reviews made me hopefull that this is what I wanted. I can't get it to work though. no matter what I do I can't get past the "VNC Negotiation" screen. I let it sit htere and sit there, continually proding the screen after it goes dark and nothing happens. I can't find any decent documentation giving possible solutions for this problem either. The most help I can find is a short sentence saying that I may have the wrong password, so I have reentered my password on several occcations. I have tried everything I can think of and nothing seems to work. I think this program could be prettty cool, but until they polish it up a bit more and work on their documentation it might be worth waiting..MrBobDobolinaVersion: 0

Lacks good screen size and mouse controlThis app connected to my Mac seamlessly but lacked the ability to see the entire screen at once and only allows you to use the mouse in touch mode which is very hard when the target on the screen is smaller than your finer. I also use another screen control app that isn’t as easy to connect but has screen size options and you can switch the mouse between touch and track so you can use the iPad screen more like a track pad - until I see an update to these two functions it isn’t worth the trouble to use it..GrizzlyIBVersion: 5.4

Don't upgrade to version 2.0!If you have version 1.1 of Mocha VNC Lite, don't upgrade to version 2. The developers have crippled v. 2 by removing the ability to use the control and command keys..StreiferVersion: 0

Disappointing Lion SupportThis app would be a great, simple solution if the Lion sign-on support worked, but it doesn't in our case. I hope others are having better luck. On this end, Mocha consistently reports a bad password using the OS X sign on option for Lion hosts. -2 stars for that issue. Lack of keyboard functions like alt & tab (without macros) means this "feature limited" version is actually "jailed.".DwandpadVersion: 3.0

VLC Mocha Lite not ready yet for customersI installed this application on my iPad as the tool to remotely turn off my MacBook Pro and MacPro. After installation I succeeded to connect to MacBook Pro, but when I tried to connect to MacPro, the application crashed and removed on its own the MacPro from the list of servers. From this moment on all connections were severed with the message from the VNC server that "password is incorrect", which of course was bogus because passwords stayed untouched. I repeated the process several times with different parameters, it always ended the same way. So finally I contacted the Mocha support. They first tried to push the problem on "iPad low memory", when I proved that I have 30GB of free space, they offered a guess (quote) "Maybe a conflict with some other software". They neither asked questions to get more info nor made any visible effort to help me out (with the exception of sending me a link to a very basic user's manual). Long story short, the app is not ready yet to be used and the support is not ready yet to offer a real support. So, unless you plan on using this application for very basic functions, give the company time to develop a real, Apple-quality app..WitoldSVersion: 2.8

PointlessI wanted to test out this free version to see if it would be worth spending the money for the paid ones. Sadly the descriptions of all of these VNC type Apps don't seem to differ all that much. So I'm curious why I should spend the 9.99 or even 24.99 on iTeleport! None of them really explain well the difference in why someone would want to fork over that much dough over the free one. I've never ran these sort of applications before in the past, and it was at least a painless experience to set up. Just had to grab my IP address and was pretty much ready to go. But beyond the easy set up and the fact that it was free - that's where the good stops. Beyond that this App appears to be worthless. It can't seem to function at all. The refresh rate is brutal, and the amount of waiting you do just to click on something would make doing even the smallest task remotely so painful and slow that I bet you could walk home from wherever you were in the world and do the task manually before this thing would even show up on your iPad. So overall, if the main purpose and function of this App doesn't work, it makes it rather pointless in my opinion. It's just a shame I'll never know if the other ones are worth it or not..Thirsty RobotVersion: 0
