One of the most exciting advances in the Chromebook world was Google’s announcement that certain Chrome OS devices would support Android apps. Google first started experimenting with Android apps on Chromebooks in 2014, but fully brought the Google Play Store to certain models in summer 2016.

At the time, Google released a master list of Chrome devices that would eventually get crossover support. However, as reported by SlashGear, Google has since updated the list of Chrome OS devices that will be eligible to support the Google Play Store, adding the current status for each device.

Note: Just because certain devices are listed in the beta channel, their support for the feature isn’t necessarily imminent. As written on Google’s post under the list, “If a device status is marked as available on the Beta channel this does not mean that it will be available in the Stable channel on the next release of Chrome OS.”

While the crossover support for Android apps has gained some buzz among Chrome fans, others aren’t sold. As TechRepublic contributing writer Jack Wallen posited, the addition of Android apps adds little to the productivity capabilities of Chromebooks, and could make the platform less efficient.

The 3 big takeaways for TechRepublic readers

  1. Google has updated the list of Chromebooks that will receive Android apps with new models and a status indicator for each device.
  2. However, just because some devices are listed in the beta channel doesn’t mean they will be getting support soon.
  3. Despite the crossover potential of Android and Chrome OS, the additional apps could make the Chrome platform less efficient for professionals, some have argued.
