LogMeIn debuts their Android version of remote connection client called LogMeIn Ignition for Android! Traditionally, LogMeIn allows multiple users to connect to PCs and Macs over the Internet to conduct meetings, trainings, support and much more… now that they have launched Ignition on iPhone; Android has followed.

Features:

One-click remote access without a browser
Controls and access files and application on remote computers
Send and manage online collaborations
In reverse, IT professionals can configure you iPhone or Android phone from a desktop to configure Exchange email for example.

Additional information about LogMeIn Ignition for Android is available at www.LogMeIn.com/Android. We’ll have a full Android App Review when we receive our advance copy!

I just went to the site… looks like they haven’t launched anything. Very misleading. “Coming soon” and “launched” mean two different things.

It just goes to a login page for me. Anyone know when it will actually be available?

this is pretty ridiculous. searching through LMI’s forums and asking their support/sales staff for any idea on when this will be available gets you nowhere also, fyi. problem is that there isn’t something else available for android without cost and has the feature set that LMI has. otherwise i’d boycott.

    tried it, yeah. works if you have a vpn and you know the ip of your pc – that’s if you don’t have a dedicated ip to your pc. for a home pc, no idea how to get this app to work. also, doesn’t give you an interface with all the machines you want to connect to, and isn’t consistent. loses connection too often, even if droid is on wifi.
