Are you looking to purchase a Chromebook, or you already have one? You made the right choice of a computer because Chromebooks are increasingly becoming more popular.
Not only that, it is one of the most student and business-friendly computers.
Although it seems complicated to operate at first, especially for regular Windows or Mac users, this includes taking screenshots and right-clicking, but you will get used to it.
One thing users would love to have in their Chromebook is android app support, but unfortunately, not all released Chromebooks have this feature.
We’ve compiled a list of Chromebooks that run Android apps. Continue reading, and hopefully, yours is on the list.
Not Every Chromebook supports Android apps
On Windows 10, you might find familiar with Microsoft store, and for Mac, there’s App store. These two apps allow you to install various applications such as games and work or business tools.
Chromebook has its own, which is already accessible to every Android device called Google Play store.
But Chromebook seems different – not every Chromebook released supports Android apps. However, Google continuously updates and improves Chrome OS, so expect support for various Chromebooks.
Below is the list of Chromebooks that can run Android apps, along with the list of models that you can expect to support Android apps anytime soon.
Note: If your Chromebook model already supports Android apps but can’t seem to find Play store, be sure you are running the latest version of Chrome OS (you need Chrome OS version 53 or later) and check settings to enable it.
