The Citrix Workspace app is a powerful tool that provides users with a secure, contextual, and unified workspace on any device. With this app, users can access all their SaaS and web apps, mobile and virtual apps, files, and desktops from a single, easy-to-use interface powered by Citrix Workspace services. The app is designed to make it faster and easier for users to work on their favorite device from anywhere, access email or other corporate applications, and provide single sign-on capabilities with Citrix SecureHub and Citrix Files.
One of the key features of the Citrix Workspace app is the Client Drive Mapping Virtual Channel, which allows users to use plug-and-play storage devices in a session. This means that users can use their local device storage or mass storage devices to copy and paste documents between the session and the user device. Another important feature is the Location and Sensor Virtual Channel, which allows Workspace to redirect sensor information to applications running on the server. This feature enables applications to use accelerometer data, ambient light level, location data, and more to alter the behavior of the application.
The Citrix Workspace app also supports the Citrix Ready workspace hub, which is built on the Raspberry Pi 3 platform and provides a secure connection to authorized apps and data. The app supports user authentication to Citrix Ready workspace hubs as an experimental feature, allowing authenticated users to cast their sessions to a hub. However, location permission is required for this feature, and users can deny this permission if there are no workspace hubs present. Overall, the Citrix Workspace app is a powerful tool that provides users with a secure and unified workspace on any device, making it easier and faster to work from anywhere.
