Texting Apps For Chromebook New! -

Chromebooks are great at almost everything—except, it seems, talking to your phone. After testing 7 texting solutions on a Lenovo Duet and an Acer Spin 713, I’ve concluded that Google still hasn’t figured out that many of us want to leave our phones in the other room. But clever workarounds exist. Here’s the breakdown. The Obvious (But Clunky) King: Messages by Google (Web) Concept: Scan a QR code, sync via Wi-Fi, text from your Chromebook.

⭐⭐⭐ (3/5) – Good for light use, frustrating otherwise. The Dark Horse: Microsoft Phone Link (via Chrome Remote Desktop or Web) Concept: Control your Android phone’s screen from your Chromebook. texting apps for chromebook

The Reality: Every week in Chromebook forums, someone asks, “Why can’t I text my mom who doesn’t have WhatsApp?” You can’t. It’s not SMS. Stop trying. Here’s the breakdown

⭐⭐⭐⭐ (4/5) – Reliable but uninspired. The Sleeper Hit: Texty (Android app via Play Store on Chromebook) Concept: An Android SMS app designed for tablets, but sideloaded onto a Chromebook. The Dark Horse: Microsoft Phone Link (via Chrome

The Reality: If you’re willing to port your number or get a new one, Google Voice on a Chromebook is flawless. It’s a dedicated PWA with notifications, group MMS, searchable history, and no phone dependency. The only downside: 911 calls route differently, and some 2FA codes from banks refuse to send to Voice numbers. For everyday texting with friends, it’s better than any “phone sync” solution.

The Reality: This is where things get weird. Texty (by a small dev team) doesn’t require a phone connection at all—it uses your carrier’s SIP-over-WiFi if your Chromebook has a cellular SIM (rare) or pairs via a lightweight server. It’s janky to set up, but once running, it’s the closest thing to a native “Chromebook SMS app.” No phone needed. The catch? MMS group texts often arrive as individual threads. And the UI looks like Android 9.

⭐⭐⭐½ (3.5/5) – A strange but functional Swiss Army knife. The Absolute Worst: WhatsApp Web (for SMS? No, but people try) Concept: People assume WhatsApp Web can send regular SMS. It cannot.
