Even though it does not support various features that are present in the premium remote desktop apps, Chrome Remote Desktop managed to find a considerable audience by offering a uniquely simple way of connecting and handling connections between any modern device no matter what OS they are running on. All that it matters is whether or not they can run the latest build of the Chrome browser.
Installation and Use
Chrome Remote Desktop for macOS allows the easy sharing of the desktop area to every user who has authenticated its Google account on those machines. To start sharing desktop, the host machine first must download and set up the Remote Desktop extension for the Chrome browser.
After downloading this add-on, the user will be prompted to tie his Google account with this app, type the name of his Mac, and pick a unique PIN number that will be used as a remote connection password. To confirm that your Mac is ready to share the desktop with another device, the extension setup area will prompt an “Online” tag beside your computer name.
To connect to a distant Mac via a Chrome Browser, your client machine (for example a laptop or work macOS) should also have an installed Chrome Browser and an active authentication to your Google account (the same account as on the Host machine). Simply visit Chrome Remote Desktop app add-on and look at the list of the accessible connections in the Remote Devices area. Click on the desired connection, enter the previously created PIN, and the remote connection will be started immediately.
It does not connect discretely to the host machine. There, the Chrome browser will announce the presence of the remote user by showcasing the “Your desktop is currently shared with ” desktop popup.
Additionally, desktop sharing can also be set up via a temporary access code that can be generated in the “Get Support” tab of the add-on. This access code can be shared via email or chat, enabling another person (family member or technician who does not need to know your Google account credentials) to easily access your desktop.
