Daily Deal: A Year of Parallels Access for $9.99 – The best way to remotely control your Mac

When I need to remotely control my iMac from some other location, I just reach into my pocket and pull out my iPhone. It has Parallels Access installed on it, an app that lets me control different applications on my Mac as if they were native on my iPhone. It’s perfect for those who might need to run a desktop app remotely or tweak a file server, and we have a one-year license to Parallels Access on sale for $9.99.

I’ve personally tried most remote control solutions over the years and I’ve gotten rid of all of them except for Parallels Access. It’s robust, works every time — even over slower than usual network connections — and it makes controlling a Mac or PC upstairs or halfway across the world as simple as making a few taps.

This deal is only for new customers; if you already use Parallels Access, you’re out of luck. But for the rest of you, here’s what you can do with Parallels Access:



Get 24/7 access to your apps & files on the go

  • Easily access your computer via your mobile device or browser

  • Manage & access files in the Cloud, on remote computers & local devices w/ Parallels Access Universal File Manager

  • View your apps in full-screen on your device

  • Add your favorite desktop applications to your home screen (Android only)

  • Select exactly what you want via the Lock’n’Go Magnifying Glass

  • View your apps & files w/ an optimized screen resolution

  • Access & play games w/ the experimental control editor

Get it while it lasts!
