What AnyDesktops is
AnyDesktops provides remote access for IT support, remote work, and unattended devices on Windows, Linux, and Android. Users can view and control a remote screen with a keyboard and mouse, transfer files, and record sessions. For unattended access, a user can enrol a host with a device secret to connect when nobody is available to accept. In attended sessions, the maker says the host must explicitly accept and a live-session indicator stays visible. Hosts can set separate permissions for viewing, control, clipboard use, and file transfer. Clipboard copying currently supports text between machines, while richer clipboard types are planned. An address book organizes named devices, groups, and recent sessions. The free plan costs nothing, with no paid plan or checkout; there is no free trial. The Windows installer supports 64-bit Windows 10 and 11. Linux downloads include a 64-bit AppImage and a Debian/Ubuntu .deb; hosting requires an X11 session, while viewing works on Wayland. The available Android APK supports Android 8 and newer, with a Play Store listing planned for later.
