Chrome Remote Desktop App Reviews

I need to access my computer with my iPad for educational sessions. Without sound, the app is useless to me. Otherwise it controls the remote computer well.

I only use this app to connect to my computer in the living room when Im not directly at the keyboard and mouse. Im really happy with how quick and efficient the connection is. Its a little weird when first getting used to controlling my mouse from my phone, but thats just because of how unfamiliar I was with ever using my phone in this way. I even have a dual screen setup (one dell monitor about 12.5 inch and a 47 inch LG tv, both 1080p), with absolutely no issue when transitioning from one side to the other. It registers as one big seamless screen on my computer. All in all, I truly love how quickly I can connect to my computer. Ill admit that theres lag every now and then, but I was originally expecting this app to be more of a novelty. Even then, it really doesnt affect the use of basic functions. Hell, if you have a better phone (5S) and a better router (really not hard to beat for anyone remotely serious about connectivity), then you should experience even less lag than what little I have now.

It disconnects whenever the device locks the screen or you switch apps. To re-connect it requires entering the PIN, making it unusable for long-running sessions. Ideally Id like to leave it running in the background and instantly resume the session. Otherwise, its great.

This is a great app and tool, but it would be better if you add a right click button. Sound would be a nice addition (you could have settings for sound to be optional since it is a remote app after all). And last but not least add better security: You could have the choice of a password or a pin.

Its a great app. Setup was very easy. I like how the mouse moves and the scaling of the screen with pinch motion. A few missing features: 1. Right mouse click 2. Mouse drag (for selection) 3. Special keys: Esc, Ctrl, Alt, arrows, function keys, Apple key, tab, etc 4. When in landscape keyboard there are two arrows on the side of the keyboard. Clicking on the arrows crashes the app 5. When I connect to my computer, the screen flashes and the front application changes 6. When I move the mouse locally, the motion of the cursor does not change remotely. This makes it hard for a local user to point to something when providing remote support.

Please add support for Touch ID having to enter password every time is getting to be a pain !

Amazing at what it does, lacks the Ctrl, Alt, etc. keys, but otherwise is great! Great job Google!

You should put better instructions and images to explain

Works really well. Cant be anymore happier.

I usually dont write a review but this is just I wanted great great app thanks google

右クリックが使えないのだけが…

Very nice lightweight app. Not loaded with features cluttering the interface. (y)

Keyboard shortcuts dont work at all, and obviously theres no hardware mouse so its quite cumbersome to use.

Doesnt work on iphone 6+ ios 9.3.3 with windows 10, when I enter pin, it just crashes

It does not work well with the IPad Pro Smart keyboard.

This is a great app!!!

works before now no

This app crashes on the iPad as soon as I type the pin in, I am using an iPad Pro

Everything I needed works in this app except the two finger tap for a right click. Cant seem to get that to work. Everything else works seamlessly and fast. Doesnt change the resolution on the host computer, which was so annoying with team viewer.

This was a breeze to set up. I just followed the instructions and was able to remotely access my MacBook Air from my iPad within minutes. The only problem, however, is that the on-screen keyboard within the app as well as BT keyboard support is VERY limited. How limited, you ask? Well, the arrow keys dont work, so typing is kind of wonky and interrupted with frequent tapping to put the cursor where you want it. Pressing delete will work as a backspace, but pressing fn+delete does not work, neither do any other fn+ shortcuts. Other shortcuts like CMD+C or ctrl+C to copy/paste dont work either. Google, thanks for the free product, but please update keyboard support! Thanks.
