About this app

This plugin allows your device to be controlled remotely via AnyDesk. Install the plugin only when you have been asked to by the AnyDesk app. After installation, no launch icon will be shown as we want to keep you launch space clean. Instead you can find the plugin in the navigation drawer of the AnyDesk app. Before you can use the plugin, you need to enable it in the Accessibility Settings of your device.

Ratings and reviews

I have been using this app for three years now. I'm controlling 8 remote PCs with it from my cell phones, which have been a few Samsung's, Motorola, and now a Nokia. Had always worked very reasonably well. Have always had full and smooth control of the remote station. One problem has been that I have not been able to control a Samsung tablet. Emailed their support. Never received a response back. But for the price compared to what I'm able to do numerous times a day, I'm very happy with it.

On Xiaomi (POCO X3 Pro), after a few hours of working this plugin always crashes or something: "Additional settings" -> "Accessibility" -> "Downloaded apps" always starts saying "This service is not working properly" and you loose the ability to control remotely the device on which it has happened. You can see everything, but your touches have no effect whatsoever. Of course, there's an easy workaround of restarting the affected device, but doing it again and again gets mildly annoying 😊

I uninstalled the main app and it left this plug in my phone and it was in my security permissions. My biometrics hasn't worked since the main app was on my phone so I don't know if my bank info was compromised or not. I know the person on the other end somewhere was looking at it cause I could see that. Hopefully they didn't get a peek at important info. I'm replacing my bank cards now
