Given:

  • a desktop with Ubuntu 22.04;
  • a device with Android OS;
  • WiFi network to which the desktop and the device are connected.

I need to share Ubuntu screen to Android over WiFi, thus, installed bVNC on Android. I tried to play with Ubuntu Remote Desktop and bVNC settings but without luck. Each time, bVNC shows a connection failed error.

So, my question is: how to share my Ubuntu desktop with Android over WiFi? I need it for viewing only (not controlling).

After the entire day of searching for a solution, I've found it. Enable Legacy VNC Protocol should be enabled. Then, copy and paste a VNC Address (just make sure to paste only the part after vnc://). Setup Authentication options as you wish.

Note: if it doesn't help, try rebooting the desktop.
