I want to install the RD client on a chromebook.
When I gp to the play store to download it, it now says that the application is not available for this device.
I see that the application is still available in the play store on Android phones, It will not show up on the Chromebook playstore.

Did Microsoft end the support for this app on Chromebook?

    We use RemoteApp so we can't use a custom application to connect.

    We're talking about the Microsoft Remote Desktop client in this thread, right? If I want to use the Microsoft client why should I be interested in Google's remote client? Please explain.

    If you're looking to connect a Chromebook, try Chrome Remote Desktop. It works great through the Chrome browser and supports ChromeOS. It’s a solid, free option that’s super easy to set up.

    For other platforms like Linux, Windows, and macOS, HelpWire could be a good choice as well. It’s free and really simple to use - once a link is sent to the client, the remote connection can be started with just a few clicks.
