Thinking about using Google Chrome Remote Desktop with Ipad to Host PC? Black screen/Error Connect
Disclaimer: Your mileage may vary using Google Chrome Remote Desktop.
What I know is apples...especially iPad's do not connect well sometimes to a PC being remoted into with Google Chrome Remote Desktop.
If I try to use an ipad with the latest software to remote desktop, it can happen where 2 things happen:
1) a blank black screen loads.
2) Error connecting to desktop
I've tried different ipads with similar results. Although, when I try a PC, laptop, or chromebook to remote to the PC,.. there usually aren't any issues.
To fix the problem, you may need to restart the google chrome remote desktop service. The easiest way I know of doing this is to restart the PC.
Another problem I've run into is that if your remote device is a Mac (imac tested), there is no audio. This has been a long time issue and it appears google will not address it in anyway as I've seen multiple forums where someone has posted comments but the forum thread was closed.
