You may be prompted in the following situations: When prompted, follow the steps to authorize Evernote to access your Google Drive files. The first time you attempt to attach a Google Drive file to a note, you'll be asked to give Evernote permission to connect to Google Drive. Your Google Drive file will appear in Evernote as a specially-styled link with the title displayed. You can quickly link to weekly reports you've created in Google Sheets from a shared project note or jot down ideas for a blog post in Evernote and attach links to research saved in Google Docs. When you attach Google Drive files, the links are formatted as clickable objects that are easy to find in a note. Imagine a Chrome Web Store packed with the best games and apps from the Google Play Store? After a slow start, the future is definitely looking bright for the platform.You can add Google Drive files to Evernote notes as attachments or as pasted links (URLs) without having to leave Evernote.
The ramifications of this initiative could be huge for the Chrome OS as Google seeks to gain traction on Windows 8 and Mac OS X.īoth rival platforms are enjoying the benefits of mobile-style apps offering greater synchronicity with their smartphone and tablet equivalents. “In the meantime, please tell us which of your favourite Android apps you’d like to see on your Chromebook.”
“Over the coming months, we’ll be working with a select group of Android developers to add more of your favorite apps so you’ll have a more seamless experience across your Android phone and Chromebook. Today, we’re making Chromebooks even more mobile by bringing the first set of Android apps to Chrome OS,” the company wrote on the Chrome blog. “Chromebooks were designed to keep up with you on the go-they’re thin and light, have long battery lives, resume instantly, and are easy to use. The convergence of Android apps on Chrome has been in the works since Google I/O in June and the company is in discussions with developers in order to bring more big hitters into play.Įventually the firm hopes it’ll take very little effort for devs to port their software over to the cloud-based computing platform. That means the apps can be installed on Chromebook laptops and operated via a physical keyboard and mouse/trackpad rather than a touchscreen. Those apps, alongside language app Duolingo and kids’ reading app Sight Words are available to download from the Chrome Web Store today. Popular Android apps like the short video-sharing tool Vine and the note-taking platform Evernote are now compatible with Google’s Chrome OS.
