Remote Desktop Android app issue with S Pen

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.

    Same here. I have the Galaxy Tab Active 3. It hasn't been fixed until now.

    I guess I should write a report or something

    I have the same issue since the last update. I'm using a Samsung Note 10 Lite and a Tab S6 Lite. I've since had to  resort to a different app which was much harder to set up.

    Yes, same problem. Considering I haven't recently updated my phone, it only started after a recent RD Client update, it only occurs with RD Client (the S Pen works fine everywhere else), and multiple users have it, I'd say it seems to be an RD Client's problem. Regardless, a bug was obviously introduced and requires fixing.

    Same issue here.

    I think last 2 weeks, using S Pen on Remote Desktop works perfectly, just until now. It seems that the S Pen is holding the left mouse button always. I tried reverting back to the old versions off app thru APK, but it doesn't seem to be the RD Client's problem (but I'm not sure entirely). But it will be great if the RD Client app should handle this bug.

    Fold3 same problem from 21.08.2023.

    No update Fold3 at this time.

    Factory default doesn't help.
