bVNC is a secure, open source VNC client. Its features include:
- External keyboard support
- External mouse support
- Magic Trackpad support
- Multi-language support
- Supports Mac OS X built-in remote desktop server (ARD) and Mac OS X authentication!
- Windows, Mac, Linux, BSD, or any other OS with a VNC server installed

- Dynamic resolution changes, allowing you to reconfigure your desktop while connected, and control over virtual machines from BIOS to OS
- SSH tunneling, AnonTLS and VeNCrypt for secure connections (does not support RealVNC encryption).
- High-grade encryption superior to RDP using SSH and VeNCrypt (x509 certificates and SSL), preventing man-in-the-middle attacks
- Tight and CopyRect encodings for quick updates
- SSH public/private (pubkey)- Supports most VNC servers including TightVNC, UltraVNC, TigerVNC, (and RealVNC Enterprise only, when configured appropriately)
- Does NOT support RealVNC's proprietary encryption (use VNC over SSH or VeNCrypt instead)

Some of the planned features to look forward to:
- AutoX session discovery/creation similar to NX client
- Ability to reduce the color depth over slow links
- Importing encrypted/unencrypted RSA keys in PEM format

- On-device help on available input modes in the Menu when connected

Ratings and Reviews
Crashes - does not run
Apple M1 Sonoma 14.2.1 laptop. Won't even start, core dumps immediately. Report sent to Apple. Hate spending money on an app that doesn't work even if its only $8.

Developer Response ,
Hi there, Greg.Thanks for getting in touch. You can always get your money back on the App Store! Please follow the instructions on: https://support.apple.com/en-ca/118223. The Mac version is x86_64 to support Intel Macs that are still quite widespread. For your particular Mac, you can download the Designed for iPad version which will have no crashes related to Rosetta and x86_64 emulation on Silicon.Please reach out to support _at_ morpheusly _dot_ com for help, as there is a lot that we can help you with, including giving away the app for free. My intention is not to stick users with software that doesn't work for them but to have each and every user happy with what they have.Thanks for your feedback and looking forward to your response!
Works well with piKVM
This might be the only VNC client on iOS that works more or less flawlessly for connecting to piKVM devices.
Password Storage
There is no password prompt, you are forced to trust and store passwords with this app.
