Hi Henry,

To run APKs on ChromeOS without turning on Developer mode, you can follow these steps:

1. Enable the Linux Development Environment in the settings.

2. Download the APK you want.

3. Put it in your Linux Files

4. Open the terminal and type in "adb devices".

5. Type in "adb install NAME_OF_PACKAGE.apk".

It will load for a while, and then it should install without a problem!

Yeah it says "This isn't compatible with your phone." Or It is " this is not supported by chrome os. I use Android 11 and others have the same
problem.
