Control devices remotely with TeamViewer Touch for Windows 8

TeamViewer Touch for Windows 8 is a free app that allows you to remotely log in to and control another computer or device. The remote machine must also be running a TeamViewer app, either this one or the TeamViewer desktop app. Once you’ve logged in to the partner device, you can perform technical support, install new software or just work on remote files.

Remote control

TeamViewer Touch for Windows 8 allows you to manage devices used remotely by employees or even just provide technical support for a friend. Configuration is simple, so you don’t need to be a network expert to set it up. This version of the app is optimized for tablet and touch-screen interfaces, making it easier to use for mobile devices. Connection quality can affect how well the app works, partly because the app uses TeamViewer servers as an intermediary rather than connecting directly to the remote device. Some features (such as adding yourself as a host) require you to set them up in advance on the desktop version of the app, but most are available in both versions.

Remote management made simple

If you manage only a few devices remotely, or just need occasional remote access to a device, TeamViewer Touch for Windows 8 is a simple, accessible tool that can manage most remote access tasks.
