Citrix has informed 9to5Mac that they are nearing completion of their XenApp for the iPhone.
XenApp is a remove Windows application that will allow the Windows users to:
- Access their computer and remotely log into their corporate networks using the iPhone.
- This would further give them the access to their Windows applications.
- Citrix says they’re “crafting a user experience that provides a natural, transparent and effortless user interface”.
From an end-user perspective, users can log in to their corporate network from, for example, an airport kiosk, see all of the applications they would see everyday at work, including Outlook email and any internal applications, and access them from the kiosk in a secure environment. To the user, the application would appear as if it was installed and running on their computer (seamless desktop integration), whereas in reality, the application is running on XenApp, usually hosted in their corporate environment.
In function, the app is similar to a VNC client!
