-If you want to use the Google Play Store but still use apps that are not available there, the simplest solution is [[unix:android:chromeossetup:sidealong|Side Along]]. For some, this is a better solution as all of your apps installed through Google Play Store can be automatically updated. Additionally, Google Play Store tracks which apps can be used on your current operating system, so it is relatively simple to choose them from your "library" if a re-installation is needed.

 ==== Developer Mode ====
 Developer Mode sets ChromeOS so you can replace the Google Play Store and use F-Droid as a replacement. Unfortunately, this removes several layers of protection from your Chromebook, requiring more care in choosing apps, and even your day to day usage.
