Remote support

Afrandrasa

See and control a customer's computer, with their approval

Afrandrasa is Afrandeh's remote support tool for customers. The support person connects from a browser and sees the customer's computer screen; the customer runs the Windows desktop app, gives the session code and PIN, and approves the connection themselves.

The support person only needs a browser (Chrome or Edge is recommended). The customer's computer must run the Windows desktop app.

The customer's call

The customer decides who connects

Customer approval

When the support person requests a connection, a message appears in the customer's app. They can accept or decline.

The customer's own code and PIN

The customer gets the session code and PIN from the app and hands them to the support person.

View only

The support person can look without controlling the mouse and keyboard.

Unattended, only with permission

Access without the customer present works only if they turned it on in the app and set a password.

Requirements

What each side needs

A browser can't record the screen without repeated confirmations or control the mouse and keyboard, so the computer that is seen and controlled needs the desktop app.

FAQ

Common questions about Afrandrasa

What is Afrandrasa?

Afrandrasa is Afrandeh's remote support tool for customers. The support person connects to the customer's computer from a browser with a session code and PIN, sees its screen and, when needed, controls it with mouse and keyboard.

What do I need to connect?

The customer's computer must run the Windows desktop app and be online. The support person only needs a browser; Chrome or Edge is recommended.

Why does the customer need the desktop app?

Because a browser cannot record the screen without repeated confirmations or control the computer's mouse and keyboard. The computer that is going to be seen and controlled must have the desktop app installed.

Can someone connect without the customer's permission?

No. When the support person requests a connection, a message appears in the customer's app and nobody connects without their approval. The only exception is "unattended access", which is optional and works only if the customer turned it on in the app and set a password.

Can the support person only view, without controlling?

Yes. The "View only" option connects without controlling the mouse and keyboard.

The picture is slow or keeps dropping. What can I do?

Set quality to "low-bandwidth" from the top bar. If it is still unstable, change either side's network (for example a mobile hotspot) or VPN, and keep the customer's desktop app up to date.

Which operating system is the host app for?

The Afrandrasa page presents only the Windows desktop app. We do not promise any other operating system here.
