* **Keep Device Awake**. If you're connected to a remote server and this option is enabled, your mobile device won't switch to sleep mode after some interval of user inactivity.
* **Show Keyboard Automatically**. When this option is on, the keyboard will pop up automatically every time you tap a text field.
* **Run in Background**. When you switch to another application after working with Parallels Client, iOS suspends inactive app and your connection with the remote server is lost. Enable this option to allow Parallels Client to run in the background.
