Earlier today Google updated their lesser-known operating system Chrome OS to include native support for Media Transfer Protocol, allowing users to hypothetically transfer files between their Chromebook and any relatively modern Android-powered device with just a USB cable. I say hypothetically since for now write operations are not supported, which means you can’t create folders, add media or rename files. The feature has been in beta since earlier this year but has now been rolled into the stable version of Chrome OS.
After connecting your device to the Chromebook, the Chrome file manager should open automatically allowing you to manage your device without the need for the cloud. The update also includes bug fixes, touch screen enhancements and security updates. Head to Settings > About to update to Chrome OS 38.0.2125.101 today and let us know in the comments how MTP is working for you.
