We’re excited to announce that Jump Desktop for iOS 9.7.8 is now available! This new version includes optimizations for iOS and iPadOS 16, Retina support for Fluid connections and bug fixes.

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

In this release we've updated the icon to the old new icon and fixed a few bugs.

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.
• In the last update we added the ability to lock the physical mouse cursor. In this update we've added support for customizing pointer acceleration and speed when the mouse cursor is locked. Adjust these settings in: Settings -> Mouse & Gestures -> Physical Mouse.
  
• Support for Cloudless Fluid connections
• 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.
• We've added a new gaming gesture profile for Fluid! 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.

We've released Jump Desktop's Cloud REST API. Jump Desktop's cloud API lets you integrate Jump Desktop into your own apps, custom workflows as well as automate tasks you'd manually do on the web dashboard.

Start building today. See the API documentation.

Add notes to computers, users and access groups on your Team dashboard. You can even create custom fields to help with your workflow. You'll see a new Note field under each computer, user and access group in your team dashboard.

Of course, notes or annotations is completely accessible using Jump Desktop's Cloud API.

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.

Jump Desktop for Windows now supports running remote displays in separate windows! This lets you breakout your remote displays into their own window locally so that you can utilize multiple screens. 

Each window can be placed any where locally and even maximized. Jump will remember your window placement for each connection. 

To get started, connect to a machine with multiple displays and then click View -> Displays In Separate Windows.

In 8.4.26 we fixed an issue with the Cycle Displays shortcut not working. We also fixed a crash when running on some Intel graphics adapters.  

Here's whats new in 8.4.22:

Jump Desktop for Windows 8.4.22 adds the following improvements:

• A brand new Jump Desktop icon
• Displays In Separate Windows for multi-monitor machines (Teams only).
• Manual Bandwidth Control to tell Jump how much bandwidth to use.
• Dynamic Frame-rate control to help with image quality and bandwidth.
• Cloudless Fluid for high security environments.
• Live Performance Stats to help diagnose performance problems.
• View users connected to remote machines.
• Colour accuracy and colour matching improvements.
• Remember window layouts for Fluid.
• Big Performance and image quality improvements: A brand new rendering engine designed from the ground up for Windows. Fluid connections are up to 200% faster and buttery smooth. Make sure you enable Hardware Acceleration in File -> Settings -> General.
• Keyboard fixes.

Jump can now show real-time connection statistics for Fluid connections. Connection stats include the average ping time to the machine, packet loss and the type of connection Jump has established to the machine. This is useful info when diagnosing performance problems. 

To turn on live stats click Help -> Show Fluid Connection Stats. After turning this on, an overlay will appear on the bottom right hand corner of all connection windows.

Jump Desktop's Fluid protocol automatically monitors available bandwidth and dynamically adjusts bandwidth usage and image quality while you use the connection. By default Jump uses a maximum of 20mbps for Fluid connections. 

There are times when you want to override the maximum 20mbps default. For example, if you know you're on a slow connection, you can turn down the default to 5 or 10mbps. 

How it works: When you lower maximum bandwidth, Jump will automatically lower image quality during complicated screen updates and automatically boost image quality to high when there is left over bandwidth available. This way you get the best of both worlds: lower bandwidth usage while maintaining high image quality. It works seamlessly and without user intervention. Try it out!

You can now set Maximum Bandwidth for each connection. Connect to the computer and then click Remote -> Maximum Bandwidth menu for Fluid connections and select a maximum.

Bandwidth above 20mbps is currently available for Teams Enterprise customers. Warning: Increasing bandwidth above 20mbps will put a strain on your network and may make things worse if your network isn't designed to handle it. Please speak to your administrator before increasing bandwidth above 20mbps.
