Don't see your browser in the table? If it supports Tampermonkey/Userscript then the answer is likely "YES".
1 It's NOT recommended to use Firefox as it's not officially supported by xCloud. Also its Gamepad API doesn't work properly so it might not recognize your controller.
2 Requires Userscripts app (free & open-source). Check this page before using.
3 It's recommended to try Android app first. Only use the browser method if you have performance problem with the app (especially on weak Android TV).
