Add server link on iOS/iPadOS

[itimpi]

Does anyone know if there is a way to add to the home screen on iOS and/or iPadOS a way to launch a connect to a specific server rather than having to first load the NoMachine app and selecting the server from the list displayed?

I have a couple of servers I use a lot that I would like to get to as fast as possible as I use them nearly all the time.   I would then only go via the current app main screen when I want to select a server that is not one of the ones I use nearly all the time.

You could use the Shortcuts app, these are the steps to create the Home item on iPad:

1. Create a new shortcut
2. Select Documents in categories
3. Select Open File
4. Tap File in the new added item on the left
5. Select On my iPad, NoMachine app, NoMachine folder, name of the connection file you want to add
6. Give a name to the shortcut
7. Tap the share button and select Add to Home Screen

Let us know if it works like you expect.

Great – that does exactly what I want.  I was sure there had to be a way!

Now to find some nice icons to represent each of these links 😊

Thanks
