Highlights
Schedule:
Beta: released on April 10, 2026.
Production is scheduled for April 24, 2026.
Support for iOS 26.
Support for Control's Entra ID "reduced prompts" settings; that is, "Normal" and "Less Strict" are now supported in addition to "Strict."
Support for notifying users that their desktop/app password has expired or will expire soon. This feature is available for customers using third-party identity providers (it is not available for AD or Entra ID authentication). This is a selective feature: contact Workspot to enable it.
Additional logging is done for use by Workspot Watch, including login, connection, and device details.
The Client now reports the connect time of failed reconnection attempts as well as that of the successful attempt.
Support for the RDP protocol's Dynamic Virtual Channels for greater flexibility in communication between the Client and remote system.

Installation
Beta Release
We make Beta releases available via Apple’s TestFlight program. When we have a Beta release:
In the browser on your iPhone or iPad, click the Beta release link we provide in our release notes or other official announcement.
You will be taken to an Apple page that lets you install TestFlight if you haven’t already.
Once TestFlight is installed, install the Beta release from the same page.
The Beta Client will refuse to open after the Beta period ends. Install the production Client if you haven’t already.
Production Release
Will be available in the App Store upon release.
Known Limitations
When a power-managed desktop resumes from sleep, the connection may time out prematurely with the error "There was a problem starting your desktop. Please contact your administrator." The end-user should retry the connection BEFORE contacting the administrator, since this usually works.
In the Procura app, dragging a subwindow leaves a trail of duplicate subwindows.
If you launch and then cancel the same desktop or app twice before it connects, it will not connect when you launch it for the third time.
Web Apps not designed for or tested with iPhones may require extra scrolling.
When updating to a newer version of the Workspot Client, two Client icons are shown on your device. The duplicate icon is deleted once the new version is fully installed.
On published apps, the "published app" icon may overlap the "Minimize" button.
Some Web Apps may not display or function properly if the Web server expects only certain browsers/device combinations.
On the UK-layout Magic Keyboard, Control, Option, and Command key sequences do not work.
When multifactor authentication is used, no error message is given if the multifactor challenge is ignored by the user.
When a user launches a desktop and cancels it before it opens, the next launch will not complete. Workaround: cancel the second launch. The next launch will work normally.
