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 attended connections, the host must explicitly accept, and a live-session indicator stays visible. For unattended access, users can enrol a host with a device secret so they can connect without someone there to accept. Hosts can set separate permissions for viewing, control, clipboard use, and file transfer. Clipboard support currently covers text copying between machines; richer clipboard types are planned. An address book organizes named devices, groups, and recent sessions. AnyDesktops has a free plan listed as free, with no paid plan or checkout, and no free trial. Its 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 Android APK supports Android 8 and newer, with a Play Store listing planned for later. The maker says support replies may be slow.

Who it suits

AnyDesktops may suit people providing remote IT support, working remotely, or connecting to unattended devices across Windows, Linux, and Android. Linux users who need to host sessions need an X11 session.

Verdict

AnyDesktops covers attended and unattended remote access with host-controlled permissions and a free plan. Check the platform requirements, especially the X11 hosting requirement on Linux.
