Microsoft continues to tweak the iOS and Android remote desktop apps it launched last month. New updates fix a handful of performance and display problems, and Microsoft also says a Windows Phone version is imminent.
The changes are mostly cosmetic, with the addition of pinch-to-zoom when using the mouse pointer the biggest functionality change. Microsoft’s blog post also addressed the question of why Windows Phone users don’t yet have a client:
Windows Phone users, we haven’t forgotten about you. Your app is coming soon!
The lack of a Windows Phone version when the apps were announced caused quite a lot of comment. While iOS and Android obviously will deliver a larger audience, it seemed odd for Microsoft not to embrace its own platform, especially given how keen it has been to encourage other developers to work with Windows Phone.
