To access my Raspberry Pi I use and can recommend to you the
remote desktop software from RealVNC. It is for free and because VNC server is pre installed on Pi OS it is super easy to use.
Here you can find an straight forward instruction to remotely acces your Raspberry Pi with VNC

This article actually explain you sereval option to connect your Raspberry Pi. It is very simple if your control device and your Raspberry Pi are in the same network.
But it is also very easy to establish a cloud connection to your Pi which means that you can control your Pi through the internet or as in my case through your mobile phone.
RealVNC allow you to connect up to 5 device's for free.

Go visit help.realvnc.com to find a detailed instruction and try it out. As mention before it is super easy! You don't need to adjust anything on your router it works all through cloud technology. The only thin you need to do is to create a free account.
I will play around with RealVNC and keep you updated if I find out anything new interesting.
