Probably worried too many apps would assume you have a mouse, so touch support would suffer from mixed-paradigm induced jank. See: the Surface. I wish they'd enable them only for remote desktop apps, though. Then I could sell my Macbook, get a Mac Mini, and remote in when I want to do desktop stuff.
- jtmarl1n 7y agoWhat do you use for accessing macOS devices remotely? I've never had luck with VNC, very slow and choppy. The best solution I've found is chrome remote desktop, parallels remote, etc. Wondering if you found something that doesn't rely on an internet connection and can stay local to the LAN.
- asark 7y agoThe built-in screen sharing for MacOS (just called "Screen Sharing" and distinct from the "Remote Desktop Connection" program) is pretty good. I think it's just VNC though, so if you've not found that acceptable then yeah, probably not gonna work for you. An X client on iOS would be pretty cool and someone might go to the trouble of making it if mouse support were added. Let me stick a BSD in a closet somewhere and client in from my iPad Pro with native-feeling X.
