Android play store starts coming to chrome os 53

A few weeks after announcing that Android Google Play applications would reach the Chrome OS operating system, we began to see the first movements in this regard. For now it is only a version one tests so it is expected that errors appear but the first step has already been taken to enjoy the Android apps in Chrome OS 53.

Chrome OS 53 begins to receive compatibility with Android applications

The Google Play Store has arrived in the new version Chrome OS 53 available in the development channel. Android and Chrome OS were created at the beginning as two completely independent operating systems, something that seems to have been a big mistake when asked by users to unify both platforms and be able to access Android applications on Chrome OS. Finally, the unification movement has begun to increase the possibilities of Chrome OS, a system that has had too much dependence on the Internet since practically all of its applications depend on the network to function.

At the moment the Play Store works on the Asus Chromebook Flip model, which has a touch screen and allows many applications to work natively without the need for modifications. Many applications will need to be adapted to function properly on Chromebooks, especially those without a touch screen.

Surely this new Google move helps Chrome OS become a much more popular operating system, compatibility with Android applications opens up a huge range of possibilities for these computers.
