Description

From the listing uploaded by “apps”.

Please support my work and GPL open-source software by buying the donation version of this program called aRDP Pro! Some people have complained of issues after a major upgrade of the FreeRDP library in v3.8.7. I've made sure to upload older versions of aRDP (APK files) going back to at least v3.6.5 here: https://github.com/iiordanov/remote-desktop-clients/releases If aRDP doesn't work for you, before writing a review, please post your question in the forum: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/bvnc-ardp-aspice-opaque-android-bb10-clients See below for setup instructions for Windows, and Linux. If you need an VNC viewer, please search for aRDP's sister project bVNC in Google Play. In addition, a SPICE client named aSPICE is now part of the same project.

aRDP: Secure RDP Client APK: questions and answers

Can I install this APK over the version I already have?

Only if it is signed with the same certificate as the copy on your phone and isn't an older version. If Android says “App not installed”, the certificates differ; uninstalling your copy first works but deletes its data unless it is backed up.

Is the aRDP: Secure RDP Client APK safe?

No one can promise that a file is safe, but some things can be checked. The source store rates this file Trusted. After downloading, check that the file's MD5 is 98d32ac6506fe3424a7339320fa01eef.
