Blue circle mouse

When i started using Rustdesk, there was no issues with the mouse pointer on the remote machine. But recently, it has turn into a blue circle that is difficult to see. Is this a bug or something?

Order of Multiplie Screens on Toolbar

Hi all,

Been using RustDesk for a while now and I have to say, for my needs it's far superior than the other options such as TeamViewer - so thank you very much for the software and ongoing updates.

I have a question regarding the order of the monitors on the toolbar. I have 4 screens on my PC and when I connect to it from my laptop the order of the screens appear to be in a different order and I can't figure out why nor change the order. Is it possible to have the order in sync with how they are set up on the host machine?

As an example, attached is a screenshot showing the screen order of the host machine, taken from windows.

The second picture shows the toolbar of the RustDesk session once I have connected to the PC that has these 4 screens.

The first set of numbers in the toolbar are in the sequence 1,2,3,4 but aren't in the right order for how the monitors are actually ordered in Windows.

The second set of numbers show 4,3,1,2 which again doesn't seem to match anything. I am not sure if I am interpreting the toolbar correctly and so am happy to be corrected here.

Is there a way to ensure that the screen order in the tool bar match the host order in a logical manner? At the moment I find it often quite confusing as to which screen I am viewing.

Hopefully this makes sense - Thank you

Using arrow keys to move the text cursor to navigate through text. Rustdesk Cinnamon

So I'm using Rustdesk to connect to my linux mint machine with Cinnamon. When I press up for last command in a terminal or when I'm editing text it just takes a screenshot instead of moving the text cursor. I'm unsure which has control of that. Thanks.

Wayland Support unattended access WHEN? 💀

I just got my home server pc all set up, i've got various dockers, cloudflare tunnel, lots of stuff I DO NOT wanna redo. (UBUNTU 26 😭) I've selfhosted rustdesk server with docker-compose on said pc and have also installed the rustdesk client. But it's all for naught if i can't remote connect to the pc without first locally answering the "select screen to share" prompt; defeating the purpose of remote access.

i thought installing latest version of ubuntu made sense but fuck this no x11 support has turned out to be a serious caveat.

In the RustDesk client on the left it says "Wayland support in experimental stage, please use X11 if you require unattended access." bro like i'd really prefer not to have to downgrade my ubuntu. Has anyone read or heard anything indicating when they will get unattended access on wayland

What did I do wrong?

Got Rustdesk running on my home server (which is always connected to a VPN) and my home PC. They are on the same network. First connection was great, put in the temporary password and had a very fast connection with no issues (didn't have enable direct ip access turned on). Then I decided the software was good so disconnected and setup a perm password and went to reconnect and got a message blocking me about botnet activity or something and I have to login. So I logged in on both devices and now the connection is unusably slow. I trtied setting up direct ip access but I will have to get into the VPN and router settings to get this to work which is a pain in this setup. My question is, is there any way to get back to whatever was working before the login? Like, I just installed them and connected and it was perfect, but I don't know what servers that was using or if it was direct connecting over the network even though I didnt have that option turned on.

Sorry if this a complete newb question

So obviously everything works flawlessly on LAN, so far all good. Now I'm interested in connecting from elsewhere over the internet. Do I need to pay for the server? I've been through the pricing structure and I'm confused as people are saying they can connect for free?

New to RustDesk – Getting Android Security Warnings (Even on GPay!) | Should I Be Worried?

​

Hey everyone!

I recently switched from Chrome Remote Desktop to RustDesk for accessing my laptop remotely, and so far I'm loving it — but I've run into something that's making me a little nervous.

Ever since installing RustDesk, I've been getting security warnings on my Android device related to the new security policy changes. What's even weirder is that **Google Pay is also throwing up some kind of "payment protection" notification**, which I'm guessing is related.

I did a little digging and I think it has something to do with RustDesk needing accessibility/overlay permissions that Android's newer security policies flag as potentially risky — but I'm not 100% sure.

**My questions:**

- Is this normal behavior after installing RustDesk?

- Should I actually be worried about the GPay warnings?

- Is there a way to fix or suppress these warnings without compromising security?

- Did anyone else run into this when switching from Chrome Remote Desktop?

I'm not super technical so any plain-English explanation would be hugely appreciated. I just want to be able to remote into my laptop without my phone thinking I'm being hacked lol.

Thanks in advance! 🙏
