Using TeamViewer for Remote Control

21 May 2025

TeamViewer is a trusted third-party app that is compatible with Windows, Android, and Apple iOS and allows you (or another authorized person) to remotely connect to your device. A Juniper Systems support engineer can use TeamViewer to remotely diagnose and repair your rugged handheld tablet, Geode, or other device. Downloading the app before contacting a Juniper Systems support engineer can speed up your service call.
