Google says mobile Chrome browser not getting support for extensions
Part of the power of Chrome on the desktop are the extensions that add to the functionality of the platform. Google made it possible for the extensions to sync across devices so users have the same tools available to them whether on a work computer or a home computer. One shortcoming surfaces as soon as a user opens Chrome on their mobile device. Although accounts and bookmarks will sync to the mobile version of the browser, extensions do not and the Chrome team says this is not expected to change.
According to a member of the Google Chrome team, they have looked at trying to implement this functionality on the mobile version of the browser. However, they claim they have not been able to figure out how to do it “and still have it be a good user experience.” In the same statement, the team member indicates there are “no plans” add support for extensions, although the statement does not go as far as to say extensions will never be added.
