Jump Desktop for Teams Dashboard Updates: Features Geared for Administrators

We've made several updates to the Jump Desktop for Teams dashboard:

  • Enhanced Visibility: Obtain information about every computer and user at a glance. With customizable columns for Users and Computers, retrieve the specifics you need without navigating deeper. The dashboard retains your preferred settings, ensuring consistent visibility tailored to your needs.
  • Advanced Grouping and Filtering: Tailor each column using filters or groupings. This enables you to view your data precisely as you want. 
  • Data Export: After configuring your desired views, export your data in formats such as CSV, JSON, Excel, or PDF. This feature is particularly beneficial for generating reports.
  • Inline Details for Computers and Users: Clicking on a user or computer in the list immediately presents an inline view of their detailed profile. This helps maintain your position within the list, negating the need for constant back-and-forth navigation. Those with expansive monitor space can place this inline view anywhere on the screen.
  • Bulk Actions: Efficiently manage multiple devices or users in one go, reducing repetitive tasks.
  • Activity and Connection Logs Export: While there's an API available for retrieving this data, we understand the need for manual exports at times. Hence, we've integrated export buttons directly into the activity and connection logs for your convenience.

With these improvements, you can now effortlessly manage your data, making your workflow more efficient and insightful than ever before. 


Watermarking in Jump Desktop for Teams

Jump Desktop for Team includes an easy-to-use watermarking feature that enhances the security and compliance of your remote desktop sessions. This feature allows administrators to embed watermarks directly into the remote desktop window. These watermarks can display connection-specific information such as IP address, email, or user name.

Privacy Mode for Fluid


Privacy Mode for Fluid blanks out the host machine's physical displays and blocks inputs from physical keyboard and mice attached to the machine. Privacy mode will also automatically lock computer after a user's remote session ends. This is perfect for when you need to remotely work on sensitive documents and media. Great for shared environments and hybrid work. 

To enable privacy mode connect to your machine and click Remote -> Privacy Mode.

Teams users can also enforce Privacy Mode via Connect Settings:

Privacy Mode is currently available when connecting from a Mac to a Windows or Mac machine.

Jump Desktop for iOS is available now from the App Store.

Jump Desktop for iOS 9.6.8

Jump Desktop for iOS 9.6.8 has the following changes:

  • We've reverted back to the old Jump Desktop icon. Thank you everyone for the feedback! We're going back to the drawing board.

  • Physical keyboard fixes
  • Stability

In iOS 9.6.7 we added iOS 15 and iPadOS 15 compatibility. Also:

  • We've updated to the new Jump Desktop icon. Let us know if you like it.

You can now control 3D first person games and 3D graphics applications by switching gesture profiles: Connect to a machine using Fluid and then tap the three dots at the top -> Settings icon -> Gesture Profiles -> Trackpad (Gaming) profile. This works with a physical mouse too!
  • New Mouse Pointer Lock for iPadOS 14+ when using a physical mouse: This new feature makes it easier to use a physical mouse. It lets you lock the mouse pointer so that it always remains inside the remote screen. This way you don't have to worry about accidentally invoking the home screen bar or clicking on iPad's native UI buttons. To start using this feature open up Jump Desktop -> Settings -> Mouse and Gestures -> Lock Mouse Pointer -> ON. Quickly toggle this feature from the physical keyboard using the following shortcut: Cmd + Shift + P.
  • Up to 2X Performance improvements for Fluid on newer iOS devices.
  • Lots of bug fixes and stability work.


On Premise Relay Server

Starting with Jump Desktop Connect 6.7.42 you can run on-premise, high availability relay servers. Relay servers allow you to control how Jump Desktop traffic is routed through your infrastructure and isolate traffic to a specific host. All traffic is run through a specific set of UDP ports so you can control exactally what goes in and out and apply proper QoS if needed. You can use on-premise relay servers for better performance and increased security.

To get started, see the On-Premise Relay documentation.



Disconnect Connections From The Dashboard

Some time back we added the ability for Teams Enterprise customers to see in real time, all active connections to their team's computers from the dashboard. Today, we've added the ability that lets admins force disconnect a connection straight from the team dashboard. To force disconnect a connection, drill down to the active connection and then click the red X icon to disconnect the user. This will force disconnect the user's active session.
