Over the past decade, the use of mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets have become increasingly pervasive in enterprise use cases. And as hybrid work has become more common, these devices have become critical as organizations strive to deliver a great experience for employees and ensure they have what they need to stay productive.

Modern tablet devices are well-equipped with the perfect combination of portability, performance, and productivity capabilities that can support a vast array of employee use cases. Today, employees can easily convert their industry-leading tablets into full-scale workstations by connecting them to an external monitor, keyboard, and mouse. This allows them to easily access business-critical apps and desktops on the go or from a workstation.

Across all industries, whether financial services, healthcare, or manufacturing, organizations need the right technology and tools to support the success of their workforce. No matter the employee’s role or responsibilities, they can rest assured Citrix Workspace app for Android is positioned to meet their productivity needs. Here at Citrix, we’ve been hard at work to deliver multiple enhancements to ensure an excellent, secure, and reliable experience for our Citrix Workspace app users on Android devices.

Some recent highlights available with Citrix Workspace app on Android 22.9.0 and onward include the following:

  • Extended Multi-Monitor Support with Samsung DeX: One of our customer’s biggest asks was to support extended multi-monitor displays on Android tablets and smartphones. We are pleased to announce that users can leverage their preferred Samsung DeX-enabled device screen simultaneously with an external monitor connected. Additionally, if a keyboard and a mouse are connected, users can create full-scale workstations with the added convenience of mobility, when needed. Learn more in our blog post.

  • App Switcher: You can now switch seamlessly from one app to another and efficiently navigate among open apps within the same session.

  • Webcam Redirection: Video conferencing is one of the most common use cases in the hybrid work era. With webcam redirection, users can seamlessly access their device’s microphone and camera through VDA sessions to enable audio and video conferencing capabilities. This support is available for the front camera of the device, with rear camera support coming soon. Fill out this form if you’d like this feature to be enabled for your store.

  • Inactivity Timer for Citrix Workspace App: As an admin, you can ensure security for users and company data by automatically locking the user out of Citrix Workspace app after the configured inactivity period expires. This ensures security while maintaining a great experience by leveraging the device’s native biometric or passcode option. It is available for cloud stores and does not interrupt any active Citrix sessions. Fill out this form if you’d like this feature to be enabled for your store.
