Amazon AppStream 2.0 users can now save their user preferences between streaming sessions

Posted on: Dec 13, 2024

Amazon AppStream 2.0 now enables end users to save their client preferences when streaming through a web browser or AppStream 2.0 client application for Windows. These preferences will be applied automatically when the user connects again using the same client, helping to provide consistent experience across sessions.

Users can now customize and save AppStream 2.0 client preferences across sessions when accessing from the same client. These preferences include audio (microphone), video (webcam), regional settings, and streaming mode, and macOS keyboard mappings. Previously, users had to manually re-adjust these settings during each session. By persisting personalized settings across sessions, AppStream 2.0 helps provide a more consistent and efficient user experience.

The functionality is available in AppStream 2.0 Windows client version 1.1.1403 and later, as well as in all supported web browsers. To download and install the latest client, visit Amazon AppStream 2.0 Downloads.
