Easiest way to use my PC from my S3 at work?

I know about LogMeIn and I'm not willing to spend £20 on an app to use it. Is there anything like it where I can remote use my PC from miles away for free?

Try Splashtop 2, I use this on my asus tab and Galaxy S4 and it's free, easy to use and quite good.

Cheers. Messing about with it now, works fantastic...

I have both Teamviewer and Splashtop 2 but nearly always use TV.

I've been playing with the Splashtop 2 via my mobile internet, works really well and surprisingly fast, very happy, perfect for what I want...

I use PocketCloud which is a simple RDP client. No software on remote PC, just enable Remote Desktop.

I do not expose it to the internet though, I run it over a VPN.

Splashtop 2 is by far the best for mobile use I've found, but I've not tried PocketCloud so I'll check it out!

As above though, definitely run it through a VPN!

Did they make splashtop 2 free? They used to charge you for using it outside your home network.

I'm paying the £1.30 ish for it for the 1st month, if I don't use it as much as I'd like, then I'll bin it off...or more than likely forget and keep paying :rolleyes:
