How to add web apps to Chrome OS devices

Problem

How can you deploy progressive web apps or web apps (apps like MS 365) to devices? 

Environment

  • Chrome OS devices
  • Latest version

Solution

You must deploy the app by following the steps described below:
  1. Go to Devices > Chrome > Apps & extensions > Users & browsers.
  2. Click the + sign
  3. Select Add Web app.
  4. Enter the Web app or PWA URL.
  5. Click Save.

Cause

Some apps may not be available through Android deployment or Extensions, as they are only PWA or web apps.
