News Netbooks / NetTops Chrome OS and Chromebooks: Access to Android Apps Lost

All chromebooks launched in 2017 must have direct access to Android applications but this feature has lagged behind, forcing to postpone the launch of new devices.

To cope with the limited number of HTML5 applications available in the Chrome Web Store, Google offers access to Google Play Store mobile apps on selected chromebooks, bringing a wide range of software.

This feature, essentially provided in beta, was to be extended to all new chromebooks in the market in 2017. But because this access to Android applications has lagged, new products can not yet be launched.

This is the case of the Samsung Chromebook Pro, a seductive and 2-in-1 touchscreen announced at the CES 2017 in Las Vegas in January, which had been announced for April in the United States, Is finally not yet on the market.

First troubleshoot compatibility and display issues

 Despite the announcement of the arrival of Android applications on all chromebooks, many technical problems remain to be solved, including compatibility of operation and display.
--All applications are not fully functional on Chrome OS, causing crashes or aberrant operations, while the display, designed for mobile devices, does not always offer a user experience worthy of the name.

Google seems to prefer to work on these aspects rather than let the new chromebooks land in the market with a user experience not completely satisfactory.

The arrival of Microsoft's Windows 10S system, which wants to compete frontally with Chrome OS and chromebooks, could also require Google to accelerate the pace not to lose the conquered ground in the education market.
