You can use this fully-featured version of bVNC for free for as long as you want with no strings attached.If bVNC doesn't work for you, please ask for help through the “Send email" button in Google Play before writing a review.

BEST VNC Client Would like to see more connection properties and options, like on TightVNC client for Windows; Toggle Tight/jpeg protocols and other features.

Absolutly wonderful I use a vnc repeater to get secure access to all my equipment and this was the only one I found that works well with it. At first it didn't but the developer figured out in no time to swp the repeater and server settings. This will be a tool I'll never do without for those emergency access support needs.

Best I found on the market I tested a few and the actual version of this software now is the best I found so far. I highly recommend it if you are looking for a Vincen client!
