Pixlr and Canva Many users who flock to Chrome OS find that there are no good options for photo editing. However, things have changed quite rapidly in this department.
You can now do some great photo editing with all the essential tools on Pixlr. The new beta editor of Pixlr is even better with support for layers, lasso tool, wand, mask and more.

Since most Chromebooks come with a touch-screen display, you can use it as your drawing canvas as well, similar to the iPad.

However, if you are looking for an advanced program that gives you lots of options then Sketchpad is the best choice. It has a myriad of options for brush styles, calligraphy, vector fill and more.

So, you will always be getting a desktop-class layout with mouse, keyboard, and touch-screen support. The apps are compatible with the mouse and keyboard and also support resizable window size. So, in this article, I am going to share some of the best Android apps for Chrome OS that you must use. Netflix While you can use Netflix on Chrome browser without any problem, the primary reason I am recommending the Android app because of its offline support.
That said, if you want the best quality then opt for the web version which streams at p. As for the Android app, Netflix streams at p. Install: Netflix Free , Offers in-app purchases 9.
You can install the Android app on Chrome OS and you will be good to go. So, if the native media player is unable to render a video file, VLC is going to be your friend. Install: VLC Free. The reason I am mentioning Microsoft Office again is that the Android version has offline support. Also, all the Microsoft Office apps work in full-screen mode and do not lack any of the major desktop features. However, you will need an Office subscription to activate the Office apps so keep that in mind.
In case, you are not willing to purchase another plan, you can opt for Office Suite by MobiSystems. On top of that, you can edit and create Office documents while being completely offline and without any subscription fee. Google is trying to bring a unified ecosystem between Chrome OS and Android with seamless sign-in and instant data tethering. Even Windows has released the Your Phone app which brings notification mirroring and call support. Nevertheless, you can get all these features using two of the popular Android apps : AirDroid and Pushbullet.
Both the apps are more or less the same but I would recommend you to go with AirDroid as it brings local file transfer, screen mirroring and notification prompts in the same package.
However, Pushbullet is slightly better at notification handling and has clipboard syncing across devices as well. If you are not happy with Pushbullet , you can also check out its alternatives. In case you are looking to transfer files wirelessly through a local network then I would highly recommend snapdrop.
You can learn more about Snapdrop from our detailed guide. Install: AirDroid Free , Offers in-app purchases. Install: Pushbullet Free , Offers in-app purchases Adobe Lightroom In the web apps section, I have mentioned a few photo-editing programs , but those are mostly for image manipulation and complicated editing.
However, if you want an offline app that allows you to adjust lighting, contrast, saturation, and other such parameters then Adobe Lightroom is the best Chrome OS app in this regard. Simply put, if you are a photographer and want to enhance the look of your photos then just go with Adobe Lightroom on your Chromebook. It supports both mouse and touch-screen controls so you can delve deeper and edit your images in great detail.
Install: Adobe Lightroom Free , Offers in-app purchases. While Chrome OS is not designed to handle resource-intensive tasks, there are a few ways you can push your machine to the brink. The app layout is optimized for full-screen use so there is a timeline track, controls on the left window and your video output on the center.
All in all, if you want to do video editing on your Chromebook, PowerDirector is a great app to use. Install: PowerDirector Free , Offers in-app purchases Squid Squid is my personal favorite in this list and one of the best Chrome OS apps.
You can scribble your notes with a stylus just like you would on paper. Further, you can import images, scribble over it, markup PDFs and more. The best part about this app is that the company has partnered with Google to bring down low-ink latency on select Chromebooks. It will make you feel like you writing on a solid paper. So if you were looking for a note-taking app that is heavily optimized for Chrome OS then Squid is the best app, bar none.
Install: Squid Free , Offers in-app purchases Snapseed For users who like Snapseed on their smartphone, well, you can use it on Chromebook as well with equally great control and features. Google has ensured to bring this popular app on Chrome OS with support for the big screen and mouse controls. Not to mention, you can also adjust the image using the touch screen too. And I say, editing on a big screen with touch-screen controls is much better than using mouse and keyboard combination.
Anyway, if you are looking for a simple photo-editing app, you can definitely go with Snapseed. Also, if you are new to Snapseed check out our Snapseed tips and tricks article to master the apps.
Install: Snapseed Free Solid Explorer Solid Explorer does not need any introduction, but if you looking for an alternative file explorer on Chrome OS then Solid Explorer is the one you should pick.
To be frank, the native file manager on Chrome OS is very limited and does not have multi-window dragging and other essential features. In that case, you can use Solid Explorer as it offers a two-pane window and you can access all kinds of details of a file or folder.
Apart from that, I like how Solid Explorer organizes my files and also allows me to clean up my internal storage periodically. Simply put, if you want an alternative file manager then Solid Explorer is one of the best Chrome OS apps. Install: Solid Explorer Free , Offers in-app purchases The app is designed in such a way that all your focus remains on writing alone.

I would say instead of relying on dubious Proxy extensions on Chrome, installing a proper VPN is the best way to stop your data leakage. Apart from that, Proton VPN worked perfectly fine in our testing. You can use this app on your Chromebook for reading eBooks in tablet or tent mode.
But that is not all, despite being completely free, the app does not show any ads while reading books or documents. Simply put, if you are a voracious reader and want to make your Chromebook a Kindle alternative then ReadEra is the stepping stone you were looking for. Extensions are also equally popular in the Chrome ecosystem. So, in this article, I am going to share some of the best Chrome OS extensions that can enhance your experience even better.
Text In case you are wondering about the lack of a Text editor like Notepad on Windows on Chrome OS , well Google has recently developed an extension for that. As the name suggests, Text is a simple text editor where you can write anything you want. The extension for Text files is also TXT which is the same as Notepad so all your Text files can be used on other systems as well. Surprisingly, Google has baked in dark mode too on this text editor.
So, just install Text on your Chromebook and give it a go. Check Out Text Nimbus Screenshot Screenshot feature has almost become a necessity on every system — be it a smartphone or a desktop computer. While Chrome OS does have native support for screenshots , you can get a third-party extension if you are looking for versatile features. Nimbus is a pretty solid app and offers plenty of options from partial to window screenshots.
You can further crop and annotate the images as well. Apart from that, if you want an extension solely for annotation purposes then Awesome Screenshot extensions is another great choice.
It offers you to create boxes, blur certain parts of the image, highlight sections, and more. Screencastify Screencastify is one of the powerful apps for Chrome OS as it allows you to record your screen with your voice and webcam support. This extension can help you record tutorials in case you are an educator. While the app is quite good, it puts a watermark if you are recording for more than 5 minutes.
To remove the watermark, you will have to subscribe to a premium plan. In that case, you can use RecordRTC as an alternative. So, depending on your use-case, you can go for either extension. Kami Kami is a complete package in the form of a Chrome extension. You can import any PDF, image, document; annotate on it and then describe everything using the webcam.
