  Hi,

  We've just released Jump Desktop 7.1 for Android that shows you all your monitors on your device. Please update to it. We'll be following this up with a new release that'll let you select individual monitors.

  How does this work on iOS as I can't seem to do that on my iPad Pro

  On iOS:

  1. Connect to the remote machine.
  2. Reveal the top toolbar by tapping the semi-opaque trapezoid at the top of the iPad's screen. 
  3. Once you see the toolbar bar, tap the tool icon and then select the Display in the display section.
  4. Tip: If you're using a physical keyboard you can also use the shortcut Ctrl + Cmd + Right Arrow to cycle between the remote displays.

  I've just purchased JD, and really like it so far.  However, I'm curious how to use some of the hotkeys/short cuts when not using an Apple Keyboard.  

   

  I've got a Logitech k780 multi-device keyboard.  It looks like most of the basic functionality works as expected, with the exception to some of the logitech specific hotkeys.  

  The logitech keyboard has these keys along the bottom: Ctrl; Fn; Start; Alt;

  • Start - does not work at all with JD.  I've found that if I hold the Fn key and press the alt key, I get the start behavior.
  • HOME : to simulate home, logitech has a key combo that works very well.  Fn + Left Arrow
  • Highlight text back to beginning of line : Fn + Ctrl + Left Arrow
  • END : Fn + Right Arrow
  • Highlight text to end of line : Fn + Ctrl + Right Arrow

  I'm sure I'll find other small issues as I use JD.

  Also, I'm not able to flip between monitors with the "Ctrl+Cmd+Right Arrow" mentioned above.  This behavior would be WONDERFUL for me, as I run three monitors and would love to more easily be able to flip between them.

  I found that you need to actually use Option + Cmd + Right Arrow to switch between monitors. I have mine connected to three monitors, and that shortcut works on my iPad/Magic Keyboard combo to cycle between them.
