The Splashtop Business App is available for download at: https://www.splashtop.com/downloads.
Splashtop is available to all students and faculty if the preferred /wiki/spaces/IT/pages/46137288 remote software tool is not an option. Some of the specific instances where Splashtop would be required are as follows:
- Students or faculty that do not have a suitable Windows computer meaning they cannot use Apps Anywhere.
- Specialized courses when the software is not published through Apps Anywhere. Your instructor will have further information on how to find the required software.
- Students or faculty that are having issues with Apps Anywhere.
