Some Citrix Workspace app for Mac users have asked for faster ways to access and open the resources they use the most. For example, rather than having to navigate through several options in Citrix Workspace to open their targeted virtual desktop or application, they want to be able open their most frequently used Citrix resources as quickly and efficiently as possible.

To make accessing business-critical resources more intuitive for our Citrix users, we are excited to introduce a quick access menu for the Mac menu bar! The quick access menu lists the user’s five most recently opened apps and desktops, as well as their first five favorited apps and desktops. By automatically starting as soon as users log in to their Mac device and appearing on the menu bar, this feature brings greater time to value and enables employees to stay productive. And users can get the complete view of Citrix Workspace into view by simply clicking an icon placed on the menu’s header.

Additionally, if you leverage web or SaaS apps from Citrix Workspace, and your admin has configured them to open on Citrix Enterprise Browser, you can now open the browser directly from the Citrix Workspace quick access menu. The browser’s icon is also present on the header of the quick access menu and clicking it will open the browser. If Citrix Enterprise Browser is already open, clicking on its icon brings the browser into focus on the Mac screen.
