Back in January, Google announced Chrome Apps for Mobile, which is based on Apache Cordova, and allows Chrome apps to run on either Android or iOS. Apps can be freely distributed to the Google Play Store or the Apple App Store.
Google just announced the newest version of Chrome Apps for Mobile that includes Chrome APIs for identity, Google Cloud Messaging (GCM), and rich notifications. It also offers an faster and simpler developer workflow, and modern WebView capabilities have been extended to older versions (back to Ice Cream Sandwich) of Android.
Another new feature, called live deploy, gives you the ability to instantly preview the Chrome App you’re editing on your Android or iOS device.
If you’re looking for an example app, Google packaged its Topeka Polymer web app as a Chrome App for Mobile. You can try it out by hitting the Play Store link below.
