It is pretty popular amongst Kali Users as they can use it to help each other and set up team rooms. However it seems many readers failed to install TeamViewer on Kali Linux 2018. This guide will show you how to install TeamViewer on Kali Linux 2018.

In some cases you might also need to do the following step:

It used to be a bigger issue previously, but since then TeamViewer released x64 supported version for Debian/Ubuntu Linux which works fine for Kali Linux as well.
Apart from Teamviewer, you can also try using other remote support tools like on premise R-HUB remote support servers. It works on Windows, MAC, Linux, Unix etc.
