+ Service continuity (Public Technical Preview)
- Note: This feature is in public Technical Preview. To sign
up, use the following Podio form: Sign up: Service continuity
Tech Preview for Citrix Workspace.
Service continuity removes or minimizes the dependency on the
availability of components that are involved in the
connection process. Users can launch their virtual apps and
desktops regardless of the health status of the cloud
services.
- Note: Supported for the Citrix Workspace app in native app
only. Not supported for workspace app for Web.
Browser extensions that support service continuity are
available in technical preview. See Support for service
continuity in browser (Technical Preview).
- For information on requirements that support service
continuity on Citrix Workspace app, see System Requirements.
- For information on installing Service Continuity with Citrix
Workspace app, see Installing Service Continuity.
- For more information, see the Service continuity section in
the Citrix Workspace documentation.
+ App protection enhancement
- Previously, the authentication manager and the Self-Service
plug-in dialogs were not protected even when app protection
was installed and enabled.
- Starting with this release, Citrix Workspace app introduces
an option to let you configure the anti-keylogging and
anti-screen-capturing functionalities separately for both the
authentication manager and Self-Service plug-in interfaces.
- For more information, see App protection.
+ User Interface enhancement
- Previously, the settings menu was available from the
Preferences option in the Desktop Viewer.
- Starting with this release, the settings menu appears in-line
with the Self-Service plugin. The menu options are now
improved to align with the look and feel of the native Citrix
Workspace. This results in a seamless and a better user
experience.
- Note: This enhancement is available by default in Citrix
Workspace app Version 2106 in cloud deployments.
- To switch to the native and old style appearance, do the
following: Navigate to $ICAROOT/config/AuthManConfig.xml
and set the value of WebUISettings to false.
+ Microsoft Teams enhancement
- You can now configure the preferred network interface for
media traffic.
- Navigate to \HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Citrix\HDXMediaStream
and create a key by the name of NetworkPreference (REG_DWORD).
- Select one of the following values as required:
1- Ethernet
2- WiFi
3- Cellular
4- VPN
5- Loopback
6- Any
- By default, the WebRTC media engine choses the best available
route.
