I downloaded the installer on the wrong device
Open this download page on the Windows PC you want to control and install it there. Your phone or viewing computer only needs the Web Viewer.
The setup code expired or was already used
Choose Add a device in the Web Viewer again and generate a new code. Enter the new code in the desktop app. Each code works once; its expiry is shown beside it.
The desktop app says the host service is not connected
A new code will not fix a disconnected host service. Finish installation, then close and reopen the desktop app. If it still cannot connect, open its logs and check the troubleshooting guide before adding the device again.
