How to Connect
1. Open the Remote Desktop Connection (RDC) app. Select the “+” and "Desktop" to add a new connection profile.
2. In the field “PC name”, enter the public IP address of your Windows VPS or Windows server. Then, tap Save.
3. Enter VPS password and tap Connect
4. Tap the check-mark to save the connection. Now you can open a connection using the new profile. You might see a certificate warning like the one below because the server’s SSL certificate is self-generated. This is OK, and you can choose “Connect”
5. The remote Windows desktop will appear on your screen. That’s it! Now you can view and control the remote Windows VPS or Windows server directly from your smartphone. How cool is that?
