Scrn (formerly iTeleport) Available to Install in Ubuntu via Snap

Scrn, formerly known as iTeleport, is a remote desktop control software that support accessing your computor from anywhere via phone, tablet, other computer, or web browser.

Scrn is on a mission to help you quickly, easily, and securely access your computer from anywhere. Our patented interface makes it incredibly simple to navigate your computer from your iPhone/iPad, using the touchscreen as a giant trackpad, with intuitive gestures for clicking, dragging, double-clicking and even triple-clicking. Try it out (it’s free!) to see what we mean.

Scrn is built upon WebRTC (a web standard for live video-conferencing and screen sharing), which we’ve optimized for remote desktop. It blows VNC/RDP out of the water. You’ll enjoy a fast (30 frames per second), HD-quality view of your screen, with a user interface that is far superior to anything on the market. You can even control your computer from a browser, no mobile app required: https://scrn.app”
