Check your VPS on your iPhone? How to Access your VPS from your iOS Device

So you’ve got a VPS and things are going great. But what if you’re outside, walking about, having a good old time, and suddenly you feel like you should check up on your server? I mean, it makes sense, especially if you’re using your VPS for Forex or crypto trading. Why wouldn’t you want to check if it’s doing what it should every once in a while, right? But how exactly can you do that? 

Well, if you have a Cloudzy Windows VPS (or even a Cloudzy Linux VPS), it’s as easy as pointing your browser to your Cloudzy VPS control panel. But, in general, there is a way to access your VPS using the Microsoft Remote Desktop app. This article will show you how to connect to your VPS using your iOS device both using your browser (only works if you have a Cloudzy VPS) and using an app.

Connecting to your Windows VPS using Microsoft Remote Desktop

Of course, this method works for Cloudzy Windows VPS just as it does for other servers. So, if you want to use your iPhone or other iOS devices to regularly check up on your Windows VPS, downloading the app and using this method makes more sense.
