It lets you provide temporary, code-based access to people outside your team, or for them to provide you access to their devices.<\/p><p>That makes it ideal for scenarios where you need to bring a guest user into your device for one-off support or perhaps to collaborate on something. Since they don\u2019t have to belong to your Team, you can get a remote session launched in a matter of seconds!<\/p><p>The access code refreshes every 120 seconds, removing the risk of lingering access codes. Users can&#8217;t connect anonymously; they need a RealVNC account. Code Connect uses the same market-leading security that you know and love.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0a53090 elementor-widget elementor-widget-menu-anchor\" data-id=\"0a53090\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"menu-anchor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-menu-anchor\" id=\"redesigned\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-70476e7 twoList elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"70476e7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Redesigned Interface, Focused on Usability<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-56f4cc1 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"56f4cc1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>We listened to feedback from you and redesigned our product&#8217;s interface from the ground up.
