*Update* Google Expands Android Apps To More Chromebooks

*Update* Google Expands Android Apps To More Chromebooks

June 15, 2017 By Gabriel Brangers 34 Comments

Google has just updated the list of Chromebooks that can access the Play Store and Android Apps. This is by far the largest update to the list to date and is a very promising sign that the full roll-out could be very soon.

The only device to gain newly-found support in the Stable channel appears to be the Samsung Chromebook Plus. The big news is the seventeen devices that have added the Play Store in the Beta Channel. If this list is accurate, these Chromebooks should be able to run Android Apps in Beta without any special tweaks.

  • Acer Chromebook 11 N7 (C731, C731T)
  • Acer Chromebook 14 (Braswell)
  • Acer Chromebook 15 (CB3-532)
  • Asus Chromebook C202SA
  • ASUS Chromebook C300SA/C301SA
  • CTL NL61 Chromebook
  • Dell Chromebook 11 (3180)
  • Dell Chromebook 13 (3380)
  • HP Chromebook 11 G5 EE
  • HP Chromebook 13 G1
  • Lenovo N23 Yoga Chromebook
