Welcome to the 358th Android Apps Weekly. Here are the big headlines from the last week:
Google Street View received a new feature this week. The app lets people submit images to the service straight from their devices. There is a caveat, though. The device needs ARCore compatibility in order to use the feature. Google already did most of the work. The idea is to improve some parts of it through crowd sourcing. Hit the link to learn more.
A new leak pointed to a new Spotify feature this week. The feature lets people play their local audio files straight from Spotify. It would negate the need for a second audio player for folks who have both local content and also stream. It’s just a leak so take it with a grain of salt. Spotify lets you do this now, but the workaround is obnoxious to say the least.

Chrome OS isn’t the most popular gaming platform. It competes with PC, console, and mobile gaming platforms like Android, iOS, and Switch. It’s a tough market but Chrome OS found a way. Google put the Google Play Store on Chromebooks and now these devices have access to a library of great games. Let’s take a look at the best Chromebook games from the Google Play Store.
For the purposes of this list, we tried to only include games with good keyboard support since not all Chromebooks have a touchscreen and not everyone owns a controller. Luckily, you have plenty of options. Google Play has a Chromebook section for some easy picks.
