How to Add Extensions to Your Desktop Chrome Browser from Android

Chrome Web Store Logo

Should you come across a Chrome extension while on Android, you can add it to your Desktop browser to install later. The next time you open Chrome on a desktop, the extension will prompt you to install.

The Chrome Web Store isn’t accessible from mobile devices. When you try to go to the website, you’re redirected to a page that states you aren’t able to access the web store. Your only option is to click a “Send myself a reminder” button that sends an email to yourself with a link to the web store.

Send yourself a reminder to check out the Chrome web store.

While you can’t access the Chrome web store homepage, you can open an extension’s page directly when you click the link from search results or if someone sends you the link.

Open the Chrome app on your Android device, search for the extension you want to install, and then click on the Chrome extension’s search result.

Search for an extension, and then click the extension's web store link.

Once the extension’s page loads, click “Add to Desktop.”

Click "Add to desktop."
