Does anyone know if/how the Homey app runs on a Chromebook? Any limitations? Screenshots would be appreciated :slightly_smiling_face:

Awesome to see a fellow Chromebook user, used to work on the Chromebook team at Google before I joined Athom :wink: You can easily install the Homey App through the Google Play Store on your Chromebook. You’ll get the same experience as you would on an Android phone or tablet, including full access…

Thanks, Abe. jtbs: Will the dash be web based as well?

I use the Lenovo Chromebook Duet 5 at home, amazing little thing with the OLED screen. The HP Chromebook X2 or the Lenovo Chromebook Duet 3 are also great options :raised_hands:

Great advice. Was looking at the Duet 3, but perhaps the screen will feel a bit small. The Duet 5 doesn’t seem to be available here in Norway :thinking:
