IMPORTANT NOTE: VMware View 4.6.1 or VMware View 5 or later is required for the VMware View Client for Android. Contact your IT department for further assistance.
WORK THE WAY YOU WANT TO
Work on your Windows based VMware View virtual desktop right from your Android device giving you on the go access from any location. Support for the PCoIP display protocol means your desktop is fast and responsive regardless of where you are.
BEST OF BOTH WORLDS
Feel right at home with support for native Android gestures for quick and easy navigation around your desktop. Need to do something more complex? Call up the trackpad for better mouse targeting or the keyboard for efficient text input.
SIMPLE CONNECTIVITY
Tightly integrated with the VMware View for simple setup and connectivity. Quickly reconnect to you desktop by selecting from the recent desktop list. Even easier with the newly integrated RSA soft token, you don't even need to leave the VMware View client to enter your RSA token for login.
UNMATCHED PERFORMANCE
The adaptive capabilities of the PCoIP protocol are optimized to deliver the best user experience even over low bandwidth and high latency connections. Improved performance available with VMware View 5 and later.
SECURE FROM ANY LOCATION
At your desk or away from the office you’re always secure. Access your View desktop over WiFi or 4G/LTE and with tight VMware View integration your desktop is delivered securely
NOTE REGARDING NEW APPLICATION PERMISSIONS: When you install VMware View Client, you will now be prompted to allow the app read phone status and identity. This permission is due to the newly integrated RSA SDK and the RSA soft token feature. For security purposes, the RSA SDK requires access to the phone state, device's network state and Wi-Fi state in order to verify the device's identity. The VMware View Client does NOT collect or store any personal data.

Overall a tidy app. It needs full usb mouse and keyboard support for 3.1+ tablets., that would include proper right-click support and proper keyboard conversion so that keyboard shortcuts can be used, ex. ^c, ^v, ^p, etc. This would make this app awesome! Thank you!

Trying to install the View Tech Preview on my 10" Dell Streak Pro running Honeycomb 3.2 but the marketplace indicates it isn't compatible with my device, what gives?

I thought this was going to be mediocre but it is amazing. It's fast and very functional especially for the size of screen you're working on.

Just installed vmware on our system. This app really shows it off. I only wish the cell mic carried through!

Works amazingly well on honeycomb tablet. I can use it for server admin wherever I am.

Not having a Cisco AnyConnect client for my Acer Iconia has left me feeling crippled. Now I can connect to my virtual desktops through my company's secure View server via PCoIP. Works great! Thank you!

It didn't work on my Phone. It would be good if you mention the supported Android version
