The Remote Desktop Android app stopped working correctly with the Samsung S Pen Fold Edition on the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold4 after the latest Remote Desktop Android app update. When the pen nears the screen, it starts selecting everything it hovers over as if it was constantly touching the screen, making it virtually impossible to use. It worked fine before the latest Remote Desktop Android app update and it still works fine with others apps.

FilGov is this still an issue?
It still doesn't work with Windows Server 2012 R2.
please fix this
Mine updated to 10.0.17.1242 via Google Play Store. It works correctly again with Windows 10 and Windows Server 2016. It still doesn't work with Windows Server 2012 R2 (it used to).
I just checked the app store again, and Remote Desktop did have the beta update this time. I am now on beta 10.0.17.1242 and the S pen is doing what it always did on my earlier phones.
Thank you to romantristanpol for posting and making me check for an update. Happy days again.
APK for version 10.0.17.1242 (latest RD client on APKPure): https://d.apkpure.com/b/APK/com.microsoft.rdc.androidx?version=latest
I'm currently on version 10.0.16.1239 with this bug on my Fold 4. I am a Beta member. But no update is available. I only started using the s pen on the device yesterday, so I cannot comment on how long this bug has been in this app.
Hi all, I confirmed that the S Pen is now working again on the version 10.0.17.1242 of RD client.
I think the Google Playstore for this version is still rolling out for some users right now. I downloaded the latest version of RD Client APK on APKPure.
The latest version of the RD Client available to me on the Google Play Store is 10.0.16.1239 and, on it, they have not resolved this issue.
