Parallels Mobile App Now Supports New iPad’s Retina Display

June 24, 2012 - PRLog -- Parallels Mobile is a companion app to virtualization software Parallels Desktop 7 for Mac, for use on the iPad, iPhone & iPod Touch. It allows you to remotely operate your Mac as well as your virtual machines running in Parallels Desktop, when you’re on the go, away from home or the office.  

This app provides a fully touch optimized Windows experience, on your iOS devices. You can tap, pan, pinch and zoom and there’s an onscreen keyboard for accessing special Windows functions, including Fn keys. You can use all your Windows applications, including Internet Explorer and Outlook.

Parallels Mobile is great for accessing important company information in Windows & Mac applications, during business meetings and while travelling, allowing you to leave your heavier laptop behind. Busy professionals can quickly finish a presentation or update an excel sheet using their iOS devices on the go.

The latest update to Parallels Mobile (May 2012) now provides support for iPad’s new sharper Retina Display. The Parallels Mobile interface and icons were re-created in 264 pixel per inch high-resolution to provide outstanding image quality. Enjoy brilliant, crisp screen images and greater colour saturation, for a stunning viewing experience with a resolution even higher than a HDTV.  With Retina Display you'll also benefit from reduced eye strain. The update also provides an improved login process for connecting iPad and your Mac, as well as new support for international keyboards in all languages supported by iOS. You can also view Flash websites through any web browser.    

Other handy features include the ability to easily copy and paste between your iOS devices and virtual machine/remote computer and the ability to watch Flash videos. Parallels Mobile is offered at the special introductory price of $4.99.  Latest update is free to all existing users.
