Could ChromeOS eventually run on your Android phone? Google's demonstration of exactly this is an interesting clue for the future


A recent report revealed that Google held a private demo that showed a customized version of ChromeOS, its operating system (OS) for Chromebooks, running on an Android device. Of course, Android is the operating system for Google's smartphones and tablets, while ChromeOS was developed for its line of Chromebook laptops and Chromebox desktop computers.

Anonymous sources spoke to Android Authority and shared that Google hosted a demonstration of a purpose-built Chromium operating system (an open source version of ChromeOS hosted and developed by Google), codenamed 'ferrochrome', showing it to other companies.
