Microsoft has quietly released a remote desktop client for Android that is available now at the Google Play store. Remotely accessing a Windows PC can be a convenient way to access files and programs when you can't physically be at the same place as the remote PC.

Cool. What's the name of Microsoft remote desktop client app? It it something like TeamViewer?

Download size < 0.15 MB. But also accurate enough, ad-free & free.
The minimalist app available on Play Store: https://goo.gl/ws42fN

To access a remote Windows desktop, Microsoft has created the RDP protocol and the "Remote Desktop Connection" program for Windows and Windows Server.
Due to the popularity of this protocol, many mobile applications allow access to a Windows desktop via the RDP protocol.
However, for security reasons, we recommend that you use the official Microsoft Android application.
