Do you mean the "Start the following program on connection" feature of RDP. This is the first time we get this request. Could you give us an example of the use case? I'll pass the information to the Dev team.

I would agree on this being useful. It would be great to set up extra connections, to the same machine, that just opened and showed a specific app. So for instance if I wanted to run Quicken, rather than connecting to my machine's full desktop and running it, I could just tap my "Quicken" machine and bring up just that app on my desktop.
Seems like a handy feature.

any update on this? In a normal Wyse client, "start program at login" is standard fare. Found iTAP and AccessToGo clients has that option. Pretty useful to replace Citrix. I even bought the PockeCloud PRO and that doesn't have this feature.

You could put the app in your "Startup" folder so that it launches whenever you login. We also support the "alternate shell" variable that iTap is using. Just create a .rdp file with the appropriate variables in a text editor and then e-mail it to yourself or put it on the web.
EXAMPLE:
username:s:chris
pocketcloud password:s:0pensesame
alternate shell:s:c:\winnt\system32\notepad.exe
