Comments about aRDP: Secure RDP Client Android Version
This app mostly just works, with a good interface and no bs service to sign up for, unlike many other RDP clients I've tried. There was one issue: the vertical resolution seems to be locked to 720px and when viewing my Ubuntu desktop at higher resolution than that, the bottom just gets cut off. I was able to work around this by going into the advanced settings for the connection and manually putting in the correct resolution. (Problem occurred with Gnome desktop sharing on Wayland)
This is the best RDP app for Android!! (I compared all of them over 5 weeks)...Try it yourself, you'll agree. OK so it's not the fanciest looking app, but you'll be impressed with its speed, stability and features. I will definitely buy the pro version soon. Anyone having a problem with the backspace key using SwiftKey or others - temporary fix - just press and backspace it for 3 seconds, then it should work as normal in that particular app until that app is closed . Cheers 🫠
Excellent app !! Just to make it even better, detection of remote disconnections should be improved: I turned off the remote computer, and aRdp keeps showing a screen to interact with. Also if I try to login to a remote computer which is off, you get a black screen that lasts about a minute before informing the remote computer could be off.
