And all this is built on top of Chrome OS, so users will continue to have everything they love in their Chromebooks. This is good for users and great for developers - in addition to phones and tablets, they will be able to easily bring their apps to laptops. The same apps that run on phones and tablets can now run on Chromebooks without compromising their speed, simplicity or security. This means you’ll be able to download and use Android apps, so you can make a Skype call, work with Office files and be productive offline - or take a break with games like Minecraft, Hearthstone or Clash of Clans. So, we're bringing Google Play (the most popular app store in the world) to Chromebooks. We’ve been encouraged by this growth, but our users have often told us that they would like to do even more with their Chromebooks - run more apps, use Office files more easily, connect with a variety of apps, and do more when they’re offline. Schools in the US are now buying more Chromebooks than all other devices combined - and in Q1 of this year, Chromebooks topped Macs in overall shipments to become the #2 most popular PC operating system in the US*. Virus protection and automatic updates are built-in, so you don't have to manage your computer. Chromebooks just work - open the lid, and within seconds, you’re on your favorite sites and apps, getting stuff done.

We launched Chromebooks for people who wanted a fast, simple and secure computing experience.
