To begin with, it’s important to note that there are three ways on how to use TeamViewer which are: computer to computer, computer to android, and android to computer.
Computer to Computer
First and foremost, you need to ensure that both computers have the TeamViewer application installed. Once you’ve opened the app, the ID and password of the computer, which can be found on the home screen, will appear. Then, on the second computer, open the app and enter the ID number on the ‘Partner ID’ column and click on the ‘Connect to partner’ button. A pop-up window with the computer’s password will appear, enter the password and click ‘Log on.’ If the connection was successful, the screen of the remote computer will appear on your device, and you can control it as if you were in front of it.

To remotely access your laptop or computer from your Android device, you must first download the ‘TeamViewer for Remote Control’ app from Google Play Store. Once the app is installed, enter the ID number of the computer you want to control on the ‘Remote control’ column. A window will pop up, asking for the password of the client device. Enter the password and follow the instructions for the remote mouse control guide that will pop up. If successful, the remote computer’s screen will appear on your phone, and you can start remote controlling it.
Android to Computer
To remotely access your Android device from your computer, you must first download the ‘TeamViewer QuickSupport’ app from Google Play Store. After downloading and installing the app, open it, and search for the ‘ID TeamViewer’ needed to remotely control your smartphone or tablet. On your computer, open the TeamViewer app, enter the ID TeamViewer, and click ‘connect.’ Then, click ‘allow’ on your smartphone to give permission to your computer to remotely access it.
