As you can see on the screenshot at the top of this article, the text displayed perfectly.īut the very best feature of Veency is this: it handles text entry. As Adam of It's Just Poison wrote and I confirmed, "Now I can have my phone charging in the other room, and when I receive a new txt, I don't have to get up to check my phone (or go upstairs/downstairs)". One thing that did work particularly well was text alerts, which displayed whether the iPhone was awake or asleep. I was unable to wake it back up from the Mac, although I could (obviously) from the iPhone itself. The screen went dead whenever my iPhone's autolock kicked in. Also, any actual on-screen video from the iPod video application was not echoed at all. This means that you're not going to be able to use this as the perfect video Stevenote-style output solution. It had significant lag time and hangups, as you can see in the demonstration below. There were slight gaps between my Mac-based interaction and the iPhone response, but nothing significant that interfered with work. Obviously, no two-finger gestures were available. I had no problems launching apps, selecting buttons, dragging and so forth. The current mouse position on the Mac was echoed as a small "x" on the iPhone, so I could always see where the virtual finger was. I downloaded a copy to my iPhone, rebooted and gave it a whirl to see how well it worked using Chicken of the VNC on my Mac.įrom first go, it did what it promised: offering tap-interpretation of my Mac-based mouse clicks as iPhone-sourced finger taps. ![]() Veency provides a VNC remote desktop server for your iPhone, allowing you to connect to the shared screen of your handheld from any VNC client ( Apple Remote Desktop, Chicken of the VNC, and more). We recently got a tip over to this It's Just Poison post about Veency for jailbroken iPhones from Jay "Saurik" Freeman, the author and maintainer of Cydia.
