Question: If I purchase an Android app, do I need to buy it again for Chrome OS?
Answer: No, you don’t have to buy it twice. Here’s why:
- Shared App Compatibility: Chrome OS supports Android apps downloaded via the Google Play Store. When you purchase an Android app, it can be used on both Android devices and Chrome OS devices. This means that if you buy an app for your Android phone, you can also use it on your Chromebook without any additional cost.
- Seamless Transition: Whether you’re using an Android phone or a Chromebook, the same app can be installed and used. If you upgrade to a new handset or Chrome OS device, you don’t need to repurchase the app. Simply redownload it from the Play Store.
- Lifetime Purchase: Your app purchase is valid for life. As long as you use the same Play Store login details, you’ll have access to the app across different devices.
