APPS & EXTENSIONS
You can enhance your Chromebook with extra web applications
(Chrome apps, for short), features for the browser (also known as
extensions) and apps designed for Android™ (Play Store apps).
Chrome apps work like regular software programs for desktop
computers, except they run entirely on the web. Extensions provide
custom features and functionality for the Chrome browser. Android
apps, designed for Android mobile devices are supported on
Chromebooks. You can find Chrome apps and extensions through the
Chrome Web Store, and Android apps using the Google Play Store.
