Google I/O schedule leaks info on Android apps for Chrome OS

by John_A

It wasn’t mentioned during today’s keynote, but we’re pretty sure you will hear about Google getting Android apps and the Play Store running on Chrome OS tomorrow. Confirmation has come through a (since updated) I/O calendar entry pointed out by 9to5Google, which said “Today we announced that we’re adding the best mobile app experiences in the world, Android apps and the Google Play store, to the best browser in the world, Chrome!” Momentum for the change has been picking up since last year, and some users have been seeing an option to enable the Play Store for a while. While we wait for more details, any developers at I/O have an incentive to arrive early: the first 50 are promised a free Chromebook for their trouble.
