You can logon to Splashtop through the web interface at any time (screenshots below), however for the best experience on any device you intend to utilize regularly we recommend downloading the Splashtop Business App as outlined in the next section.
Downloading the Splashtop Business App
Download the Splashtop Business App (https://www.splashtop.com/downloads#ba
) and install it on your preferred device. This application is available on most platforms including Windows and Macintosh computers, iPad, Android and other mobile devices, as identified on the Splashtop website. Lambton College is recommending students have a Windows based computer, however a Macintosh with full keyboard and mouse will work as well.
NOTE
For anyone hoping to use a tablet, ie. iPad or Android, these devices will work with Splashtop, however they are not recommended for frequent use due to screen size, and the lack of a keyboard in most cases. Adding a keyboard to your tablet will improve the experience considerably.
