+sloth96 Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 Howdy, The geocaching app works on my chromebook but does not take advantage of the larger screen. Are there any partner apps that work on a chromebook or do a better a job? Thanks Quote Link to comment
+sloth96 Posted November 21, 2021 Author Share Posted November 21, 2021 (edited) Cachemaid http://www.cachemaid.com/ seems to work reasonably well on the chromebook. It expands to full screen. Now the question is how to get position data into the chromebook. Edited November 22, 2021 by sloth96 Quote Link to comment

+Viajero Perdido Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 (edited) Chromebook runs Android apps, right? I've never touched a Chromebook, but I know Locus Map works quite well on my 12" Samsung tablet. Adapts just fine to those 2800x1752 pixels, and likely beyond.

+SpiritGuide Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 Geooh GO runs on tablets and Chromebooks taking advantage of the larger screen size by going into a split-screen mode. Quote Link to comment
