<p><font size="5">All,</font></p>
<p><font size="5">Check out RustDesk for remote access/control.</font></p>
<p><font size="5">It is marketed as a replacement/alternative to
apps like Teamviewer, Anydesk, etc.<br>
</font></p>
<p><font size="5">What makes this app stand out amongst all others
is that it supports voice. You can talk through the remote
connection to the person who you are providing remote technical
support to, rather than having to rely on a separate telephone
conversation.</font></p>
<p><font size="5">If you need to help somebody with their iPad you
can see the iPad and talk to them at the same time.</font></p>
<p><font size="5">You can transfer files in both directions. The
added advantage to this is the ability to transfer files between
dissimilar operating systems. Theoretically, you can transfer a
file from a Windows computer to someone's ipad while they're
located somewhere else in the world.<br>
</font></p>
<p><font size="5"><b>Other nice features:</b></font></p>
<ol>
<li><font size="5">It's open source and FREE!!</font><br>
</li>
<li><font size="5">Works everywhere. <span style="background-color:rgb(255, 255, 0);">NO NEED FOR PORT
FORWARDING!!!!<br>
</span></font></li>
<li><font size="5">Display your Android/Apple phone/tablet on your
Windows machine.</font></li>
<li><font size="5">Provide remote technical support for people
using mobile devices like iPad and cell phone without needing
to be on the same local network. I don't know about iphone,
but with Android, you can set it so that you can from Windows
<span style="background-color:rgb(255, 255, 0);">control</span>
the Android phone remotely.<br>
</font></li>
<li><font size="5">On Windows, you can run the app without having
to install.</font></li>
<li><font size="5">Connection is encrypted.</font></li>
<li><font size="5">At any point, you can reverse the remote
control connection without losing the connection.<br>
