Ask Slashdot: Best App For Android For Remote Access To Mac Or PC?

Posted by timothy on from the not-gonna-have-to-ask-you-to-come-in-on-saturday dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Hi, I need to get remote access to my home Mac and Windows PC. At home, it's basically for watching TV, whereas at the office, I need it to work on files I am not allowed to take out when leaving. I know there's a lot of choice out there, but I need something free and reliable. What do you all recommend?"
