Screen looks exactly the kind of app I want on my iPad.
#REMOTIX ALTERNATIVE MAC#
I read the whole article & still not understand the difference between Screen Sharing (which I’m using everyday) and Back To My Mac (which I have never used). Basically, anything that cannot work well in a sandbox ought to be provided by Apple (or Microsoft for Windows(). We should not have to depend on third parties with unclear incentives for things like virus protection, remote control solutions, computer management, etc. More generally, Apple (and Microsoft) ought to provide strong first-party solutions for everything that involves the control and security of a computer - those are fundamental, core features of an OS these days. Microsoft provides this kind of functionality on Windows -Īpple definitely should do the same. This is the type of functionality that ought to be provided by Apple. I'm leery of any solution from a third party, particularly a small third party that charges nothing. Relatedly - these "remote control" apps are a no-brainer line of attack against a computer. In other words, they are "only" Apple's most loyal, most engaged customers. The "only" people who benefit from BMM are those with multiple Macs in different locations, who actively use them and depend on them. What's not been mentioned here is BTMM includes a straight up file server connection in the Finder as well, if you have that turned on. Trust me, I get the benefits of BTMM as I use it often. Also it's not limited to your iCloud account, which BTMM is. I'm just saying it's not *only* limited to your local network. We need to encourage Apple to maintain this service.
#REMOTIX ALTERNATIVE PASSWORD#
Ya! And how many home users have a dedicated ip with a configured subdomain? Also you are only password protected on that connection and back to my Mac creates a transparent vpn tunnel. I connect to our office server all the time via command-K and vnc:// Screen Sharing also works with a remote machine with a dedicated IP/subdomain. Reach out to Apple and fight to get this back. The author does a major disservice by down playing this. Back to My Mac works over the internet with no configuration beyond signing into the same iCloud account on each system.

I got a pop up saying Back To My Mac was being discontinued and the info at Apple ( ) says that screen sharing is still available.
