AnyDesktops
What it is
AnyDesktops provides remote access for IT support, remote work, and unattended devices. Users can view and control another screen with a keyboard and mouse, transfer files, and record sessions. Attended connections require the host to accept, with a visible live-session indicator, according to the maker. For unattended access, users can enrol a host with a device secret so a connection can be made without someone present to approve it. Hosts can set separate permissions for viewing, control, clipboard use, and file transfer. The address book organizes named devices, groups, and recent sessions; clipboard copying currently supports text, with richer types planned. AnyDesktops supports Windows, Linux, and Android. Its free plan is listed as free, with no paid plan or checkout, and there is no free trial. The Windows installer supports 64-bit Windows 10 and 11. Linux downloads include a 64-bit AppImage and Debian/Ubuntu .deb; hosting requires X11, while viewing works on Wayland. The available Android APK supports Android 8 and newer, with a Play Store listing planned. The maker says support replies may be slow.
