Google Chrome is the most popular web browser which comes with many useful features. But we can enhance the features and functions of Google Chrome by installing extensions.

I am sure you already know about TeamViewer which is used to control a computer from remote location. It is generally used to help other persons from remote locations. But why install separate software if you can do the same with Google Chrome? Google chrome can also be used to control a computer from remote location as you do in TeamViewer. For this, you only need to install a nice app called Chrome Remote Desktop BETA.

Chrome Remote Desktop BETA works similar to TeamViewer and allows users to control a remote computer on Internet. This app must be installed on both computers involved in sharing process.

First of all, add this app in Google Chrome. Then launch the app to use this feature. To share your computer with friends, you need to click on “Share” button. It will generate a 12 digit code. Give this code to other person on chat or email. He need to enter this code to access your computer.
