Using 3D Touch with Horizon Client
You can use Peek and Pop gestures to interact with Horizon Client on a 3D Touch-enabled iPhone 6s or
iPhone 6s Plus.
Using Peek and Pop with the Horizon app
You can Peek at the Horizon app on your iOS device Home screen to show a quick action menu. On the
quick action menu, you can tap the Connect to Most Recent Server item to quickly connect to the most
recently used server. If a recent server does not exist, you can tap the Connect to Most Recent Server
item to add a new server.
After you connect to a remote desktop or application, Horizon Client adds a shortcut to the desktop or
application to the quick action menu. For example, if you connect to a remote desktop named Win7,
Horizon Client adds Connect to Win7. You can tap a shortcut to quickly connect a remote desktop or
application. The Horizon icon quick action menu can contain up to three shortcuts.
Using Peek and Pop Inside Horizon Client
On the desktop and application selection window, you can Peek at a remote desktop or application to
show a quick action menu. You can tap items in the quick action menu to connect, log off, mark a favorite,
and perform other actions, depending on the remote desktop or application. You can also Pop into a
remote desktop or application to connect to it.
