It's the same protocol used by merchants to keep credit card information secure during online transactions. The security is limited to HTTPS, which includes AES encryption. The Chrome remote desktop is a stand-alone tool that allows you to access a computer remotely through an iOS, Chrome, or Android device.Īccess to the remote desktop is through the browser. Your data will be secure when using the remote desktop because the software uses a secure SSL connection. It also enables you to give remote support to your computer. Because of Googles track record with product support, this will never get fixed and thus I will never use this product.Chrome desktop is software that allows you to control another computer remotely from Windows, Chrome OS, Linux, or iOS. And no I’m not going to just unplug my second monitor every time I walk away from my computer in case I need to connect with Remote Desktop.

The only display option I have is to resize desktop to fit.īecause of this, I have to rate it 1 star because it is simply UNUSABLE for me in its current state. Apparently that option isn’t there anymore. I’ve googled this problem and everyone says the solution is to change which monitor to display. That’s not useful because when I open windows they default to the primary window, and guess what, I can’t see them. However, the app isn’t at all useful to me because of one thing: there is no option to change display.įor some reason when I connect to my desktop it defaults to showing the second monitor only. I want to start by saying that I love the potential an app like this brings, being able to access my computer from anywhere, even if it is just to check a date or a password etc. I hope you would take this suggestion into consideration because it would be so helpful to most of not all users of the Chrome Remote Desktop app. That would really bring it all together, and instead of having it integrated make it a custom Keyboard that you have to enable in settings and all that but have its option settings in the app. It bugs me quite a bit that they haven't thought to do it yet because it is nessessary! How is anyone supposed to use Esc or any of the other essential keys?! A 4 layer keyboard would be great, first layer has the letters, backspace, Shift/CapsLock, space bar, return/enter and the main punctuation marks ( like most regular keyboards) And again like most keyboards there would be a second and third layer of numbers and other symbols and then ANOTHER layer that has all the Esc, Ctrl, Shift, Windows, Tab, Print Screen, F1-F12 buttons among others. I have been using this app for a while now and it has been incredibly useful in so many situations but there is one thing that bugs me so much The app needs is own custom Keyboard, a semi transparent, customizable keyboard. I LOVE THE APP BUT THERE IS SOME THINGS THAT NEED TO BE ADDED.
