Comments on Windows App for Android

★★★★☆ Engelbert forson · Oct 6, 2026

The app works fine, however there's no option to disable the toolbar, users using physical keyboard and mouse have no need for such toolbar, and it also prevents the convenience of a full screen. Kindly add an option to disable the toolbar just like the desktop version (MSTS) where you can prevent the display of the toolbar and toggle it back when needed. Thank you.

★★★★☆ USERgame · Aug 25, 2026

It's fine. Still a bit clunky but largely does what the old RD client version did. Biggest issue now was a problem from before, mouse cursor color is stupid. Like REALLY guys, I need to tell you that having the same color cursor as the damn background of, so many windows is a REALLY STUPID idea? Do you not use your own app? Also, lack of ability to adjust window shifting when zoomed in and using the cursor. At this point you should just pay me big bucks to tell you how to design software.

I only use the Remote Desktop features of the app, but I don't have any complaints. I expected the app to be bloated but was pleasantly surprised to find that it seems pretty lightweight. Another reviewer claimed that you need to log into an MS account to use this app - but that's not true, and you can use Remote Desktop features with just the IP address and a set of credentials for the machine you want to maintain.

We need the old Microsoft Remote Desktop App back. Windows App doesn't have option to scan nearby devices like it used to in Remote Desktop App. Also the Windows app is laggy and slow. The mouse or touch response is slow. This app sucks

★☆☆☆☆ G 9 · Oct 11, 2026

Needs better external display / DeX resolution scaling Works well on the phone screen, but when using Samsung DeX on a monitor, the virtual desktop session doesn't scale to match the monitor's native resolution. The phone interface looks crisp on the monitor, but the Windows remote session remains low-res and blurry. Adding high-DPI/native resolution support for DeX sessions would be a huge improvement.
