Google Beta Testing Android App For Chrome Remote Desktop

As revealed via reports doing rounds on the web, the Chrome Remote Desktop works cross-platform. What this means is that OSX users can now connect to Windows systems and carry all the required activities between the devices.

"While there's been plenty of talk about Google testing out the Android version of Chrome Remote Desktop - dubbed 'Chromoting' at one point- there's also talk that an app will eventually make its way to iOS as well," PCMag reports.

Moreover, according to Engadget, the iOS app is seemingly lagging a bit behind the Android app's development as of January. "It's unclear whether developers have managed to pick up steam, or whether Android will be the first mobile platform to enjoy support for Chrome Remote Desktop," the report adds.

While we still wait for the new Chrome remote dektop to hit with the certain app that's currently being tested for the feature, it is to bw noted that remotely accessing a computer isn't something new and there are already plenty of options available by which you can do so.

However, the treat will be even more special if it eventually arrives from Google with a sort of "official" tag to it. Moreover, a brand name as that of Google will also be enough to leverage the app as well as the feature to its expected popularity.
