You can quickly navigate to a remote application from a Unity Touch sidebar. From this sidebar, you can launch applications, switch between running applications, and minimize, maximize, restore, or close remote applications. You can also switch to a remote desktop.
When you access a remote application, the Unity Touch sidebar appears on the left side of the screen. If the Unity Touch sidebar is closed, a tab appears on the left side of the screen. You can swipe this tab to the right to reopen the sidebar. You can also slide the tab up or down.

From the Unity Touch sidebar, you can perform many actions on a remote application.
