Answer 1

Hello,

Certainly, we can remote to windows 11 from Windows App iOS version, but it requires the Enterprise or Pro version of Windows 11. The Home version does not support this feature.

Before you can download Windows App and connect to a remote PC from iOS or iPadOS, you need:

• Internet access to download Windows App from the App Store.
• Network connectivity to the remote PC.
• A user account to access the remote PC.
• A device running iOS or iPadOS 16.0 or later.

To connect to a remote PC, that computer must be turned on, it must have a network connection, Remote Desktop must be enabled, you must have network access to the remote computer (this could be through the Internet), and you must have permission to connect. For permission to connect, you must be on the list of users. Before you start a connection, it's a good idea to look up the name of the computer you're connecting to and to make sure Remote Desktop connections are allowed through its firewall.

If you need to connect to your PC from outside of the network your PC is running on, you can use port forwarding or set up a VPN. For more information, see Allow access to your PC from outside your PC's network.
