Another feature that is going to be shut down in 2022 is Google Chrome Apps. Google started the shutdown in 2017 when the Chrome Apps tab was removed in the Chrome Web Store. In 2020, Google stopped accepting new apps. And by June 202, support will end for all existing Chrome app users for all operating systems. Google notes though that this change does not impact support for Chrome Extensions. Google will continue to support and invest in Chrome Extensions on all existing platforms. During the latest CES and Google's I/O Developer Conference, it was announced that new features would be coming to ChromeOS to have working across devices much easier. It was recently announced in their Official Blog that those features will now start rolling out to Chromebooks for users with Chrome OS 103.
