EXTENSIONS

You  can  enhance  your  Chromebook  with  extra  web  applications 
(Chrome  apps,  for  short),  features  for  the  browser  (also  known  as 
extensions)  and  apps  designed  for  Android™  (Play  Store  apps). 
Chrome  apps  work  like  regular  software  programs  for  desktop 
computers,  except  they  run  entirely  on  the  web.  Extensions  provide 
custom  features  and  functionality  for  the  Chrome  browser.  Android 
apps,  designed  for  Android  mobile  devices  are  supported  on 
Chromebooks. You can find Chrome apps and extensions through the 
Chrome Web Store, and Android apps using the Google Play Store.
