Chromebook

Chromebooks are laptop computers that run ChromeOS, an operating system developed by Google. ChromeOS is built around the Chrome browser, which runs web-based apps like Gmail and Google Docs. As a result, you cannot install traditional software like Connectix on a Chromebook.

Not to worry! Druide offers a free connector that you can install separately to enable integration with Antidote Web.

Adding the Antidote Connector to Chrome

  1. If you did not install Antidote’s connector for Chrome when you first configured Antidote Web, log in to antidote.app and click the  icon in the sidebar on the left.

  2. Click Add in the pop-up window that appears.
