  • Almost Perfect

    By Lem0nDropz
    By far the smoothest way to connect to an AWS workspace via iPad, with just a few quirks. As is, this allows my iPad to replace my laptop for work. Mouse support is pretty remarkably good! Scrolling etc works now w/the Magic Keyboard case. Most keyboard commands work, though some are a little wonky. A killer feature I’d love to see is proper management of second displays. Currently you /can/ connect a USB-C display and mirror the iPad for a bigger screen while working, but it would be even better if it could run full resolution on both screens as separate displays!
  • Mouse and keyboard support is great, but still some issues.

    In 1600x1200 display mode, when you minimize windows, a strip of the right side of the window remains. In 1600x1200 or 1024x768 the very right side of the screen will not let anything show up on it. If you click the date to bring up the calendar, the popover calendar appears, but the right edge of it is truncated off, so the week ends at Thursday, there is no Friday or Saturday. When you drag windows, often the right edge of them will disappear.
  • Display Artifact

    For some reason on the right side of my iPad the workspace will not display parts of a window. It’s like an invisible artifact that allow any part of a window to show
  • Has Potential, But Little Effort

    Has the potential to be great but no effort has been made to integrate the new magic keyboard for the iPad, and it closes almost every time I switch to another app and have to re-login. Also dual-screen is broken, but it’s so close to being good. It would take someone only a day or two to fix this! Come on Amazon...
  • Needs Mouse/Trackpad and Keyboard Support

    I got this app for use with the iPad Magic Keyboard, hoping to fully replace my laptop for general usage, but the complete lack of mouse/trackpad support, as well as poor keyboard support, render this app far less useful than it really should be. Please add support for these features and make AWS for iPad all it could be!
  • Please support Magic keyboard trackpad

    The trackpad on magic keyboard as well as several aspects of keyboard interaction are broken. Please fix this to make it viable to productively use AWS workspace with an ipad.
  • Lacking modern features of the recent OS. Keyboards, mice, external displays, etc.

    This app has the capacity to be a really great application, but is lagging on support of various features of the OS making it more or less impossible to use for any meaningful developer work. For example, when using Workspace from macOS, it properly redirects the cmd key to be the control key on the Windows 10 workspace. Mouse support came in iPadOS 13.4 which I think should be implemented. This would be the perfect application where these new API features could be implemented. Things like right clicking on my Bluetooth mouse does not right click in the Workspace app. Apple also has support for external displays. This app could make use of the app as a secondary display which would be fine for someone that had a Bluetooth mouse paired to the device.
  • Needs iPadOS 13.4 Mouse Support

    Now that iPadOS officially supports Bluetooth mice (complete with right clicking and scroll wheel), Amazon needs to expand the mouse support in the Workspace client to support the same, along with native cursor support.
  • Desperately needs better keyboard support

    By mebpenguin
    I use this app a lot on the iPad, for both personal and business use. Connections are very solid, and the interface is responsive. I find mouse support to be very good with my propoint. What is terrible is keyboard support. Control and Alt are not recognized on iPad keyboards with the exception of ctrl+c, ctrl+v, ctrl+x. Even better would be support for the command key to remap to the ctrl key as on the Mac client. Either way, the current solution is so limiting for power users, no app-switching, no easy access to app shortcuts, etc. I find myself logging into my Mac remotely and then using the Mac client just to use keyboard shortcuts, but that slows things down significantly. Please improve keyboard support.
  • No sound to Bluetooth headphones

    Sound only comes out from speakers, not from Bluetooth headsets like AirPods. Please update the app.
