Few requests...

Hello.
I love the soft so far, but there are a few QoL features that would greatly improve the soft.
1. Auto Updater - It would be great if the application would auto-update itself when a new version is available, instead of the need for manual downloading and installing the new version
2. Screen saver pass - currently, if the screen saver is activated on the remote machine, it is required to send CTRL+ALT+DEL and then cancel to turn off the screen saver. It would be nice for it to be automatically turned off with a single swipe on the screen or a move of the remote mouse
3. Auto mouse follow - On mobile devices, if I zoom in, the screen does not move with the remote mouse. It would be better if I could move the mouse in any direction the screen moves with it automatically, so I don't need to zoom out and zoom in again.
4. LAN performance - When using Remotly to connect between my computers on the same home network, the connections drop as if I were during an internet connection from far away or on poor signal wifi. Please add LAN support so the connection between devices on the same network works at full speed.
That's all the ideas I gave for the QoL updates.
Thanks for listening!

Hi ZiggyGG,

Thank you for your feedback.

1. Auto Updater - It would be great if the application would auto-update itself when a new version is available, instead of the need for manual downloading and installing the new version

ANSWER: Auto updater is in development and will be available in the admin panel "on demand". It will allow to select a specific version which should run on each remote device separately (or for all remote devices at once).

2. Screen saver pass - currently, if the screen saver is activated on the remote machine, it is required to send CTRL+ALT+DEL and then cancel to turn off the screen saver. It would be nice for it to be automatically turned off with a single swipe on the screen or a move of the remote mouse

ANSWER: Sorry for this inconvenience. This will be fixed soon.

3. Auto mouse follow - On mobile devices, if I zoom in, the screen does not move with the remote mouse. It would be better if I could move the mouse in any direction the screen moves with it automatically, so I don't need to zoom out and zoom in again.

ANSWER: Good idea. We will add it in v1.41 for Android and in v1.0 for iOS (which is almost ready). Currently when zoomed in, the right part of the screen controls the mouse position and the left part moves the zoomed area around the screen.

4. LAN performance - When using Remotly to connect between my computers on the same home network, the connections drop as if I were during an internet connection from far away or on poor signal WiFi. Please add LAN support so the connection between devices on the same network works at full speed.

ANSWER: P2P local connections always work at full speed (if two devices connect from the same local network). But the connection requires WAN access for "state" notification of host devices for external access. This cannot be easily changed by design. We may add a small change that will not drop local connections when internet connection drops (it will be sustained even when internet access is lost).
