A list containing the majority of Citrix Workspace app for Chrome (formerly Receiver for Chrome) support articles collated to make this page a one stop place for you to search for and find information regarding any issues you have with the product and its related dependencies.
Users install Citrix Workspace app for Chrome OS from the Chrome Web Store by searching for Citrix Workspace and clicking Add to Chrome. Once installed, Citrix Workspace app for Chrome OS must be configured with connection details for Citrix Gateway and the Citrix Receiver for Web site providing that provides users’ desktops and apps. Taking the Citrix session out of fullscreen and putting it back into fullscreen fixes the issue. I've tried submitting a support case, but Citrix support does not seem to understand anything about how their Chrome app works. Support agents don't understand the issue and don't even read the full support case.
