With Citrix Workspace app for Mac 2212 (or previous version) on Mac OS 13, you might encounter problems that client input sources cannot be synchronized correctly to your remote applications or desktops.
For example, for Mac OS 13, the default English input source is English - ABC, while in the past, it’s English - US. And Citrix Workspace app cannot synchronise the English - ABC correctly to VDAs.
Here is a list of input sources which might be synchronized incorrectly:
