Review summary

Overall, many users report that Chrome Remote Desktop on Android is functional and reliable, but recurring issues around keyboard input, updates/maintenance, stability, and browser-based access reduce reliability and security. The app is generally well-liked for its core capability, yet these persistent UX and maintenance drawbacks limit its practicality.

Pros

Generally reliable remote desktop functionality
Positive overall reception across multiple reviews (rated as good/best/superb)
Some users report cross-device usability with non-Android hosts (e.g., MacBook)

Cons

Keyboard/input issues (no external keyboard support, on-screen keyboard limitations, missing language options)
Updates and maintenance concerns (changes that degrade UX; appears to be poorly maintained)
Stability/reconnection problems (unreliable connections and reconnection delays)
Security/privacy concerns due to browser-based access method

2026-09-04	ib*****	It's nice, but every time I switch to another app or just go to the home screen on my phone, I need to log back into my PC because it just stops updating my PC screen in the app(although clicking on the elements I see - works). I'm switching to Rustdesk.

2026-09-04	Ma*****	Clipboard Paste Bug When I copy multiline text from Android and paste it into Windows using Chrome Remote Desktop, each new line acts like an Enter key. For example, a 50-line message can be sent as 50 separate messages. Please fix this. Multiline text should paste as one message with line breaks, not as multiple Enter presses.
