On Wednesday (16th April, 2014), Google released a new Chrome Remote Desktop app for Android, which lets you control your PC from afar using your tablet or smartphone. After you download the app to your mobile device, you’ll be prompted to install the Chrome Remote Desktop extension in your desktop’s Chrome browser, a very straightforward procedure that asks you to allow remote connections on your computer and set a PIN for the PC. Once you do so, the PC’s name appears in the Chrome Remote Desktop page in your browser, letting you know everything’s ready to rock. All you have to do from there is fire up the Android app, connect to the PC you’d like (Google lets you connect several PCs to your account), and pop in the PIN. A small pop-up warns you that someone is remotely using your PC in the desktop browser the entire time the app is active. Now, you can control your PC just from your Tablet or Smartphone.
