hello, in https://community.teamviewer.com/English/kb/articles/98985-android-host and then https://community.teamviewer.com/En...rers-for-remotely-controlling-android-devices, are they saying Google pixel phones are not available for unattended remote control using the Host app? I had thought it would have worked to show Android superiority over iOS. I guess I was wrong. Thx. Need to help parents control their P7P. If this just doesn't work, it gives me greater incentive to switch back to iPhone 15 pro max and Apple Watch. For example, also learnt Pixel Watch doesn't support fall detection in unsupported countries.
Question TeamViewer Host app unattended remote control
- Thread starter supermansaga
- Start date
I got it working for my device, but I also had to install an add-on to control as well as enable it in Accessibility to get things to properly work....
I'm working off of a rough memory, so I may be missing some steps, but this is what I remember and have gotten to make it work...
Also -- I just checked right now -- I did not use the "host" app to get it working...
I'm sorry, I confused regular remote control with unattended assistance.
So....you're going to switch your parents back to an iPhone 15 pro max (because it's their device that isn't working with Teamviewer host)?
Or you're looking for an incentive to switch, yourself, because (maybe among other things) the Pixel 7 can't do a single app like Teamviewer host (yet, for all we know)?
If that's the case, I hope you enjoy your iPhone 15 pro max so you can run Teamviewer host then....

My late father, would go to bed EVERY night by 9pm...something he did since I was a kid.
(Of course he got up at 5am and make all sorts of noise, but that's another story).
I was his "computer" mechanic, so every once in a while I would remote into his computer
to do housekeeping. Make sure the recycle bin was empty, update software etc.
One night, around 9:30, I remoted into his PC, opened up his browser, and it closed in a couple
seconds. His internet connection sometimes wasn't the greatest, so I figured I closed it.
Opened it again, and it closed again...THEN the phone rang. He said his computer was acting
up. So I played along. Oh really? Yes! Programs are opening by themselves, I close them and
they open again. After laughing I told him what I was doing. His answer was ok smarta**!
I started laughing again and said it was after 9pm, what are you doing up?
(He was big into vinyl records, big band recordings and was always making tapes for peope)
He was taping something and was still up.
After that encounter, I would wait until around 11pm on Friday...I knew he wouldn't be up at
that hour!

I am saying iPhone iOS is even worse regarding the limitations because in attended mode, iOS still can't control upon confirmation by the guest. However, given unattended is not achieveable at all with pixel 7 pro, or even upcoming 8 series, I am thinking to abandon Android
