Google Chrome Apps, commonly just Chrome apps, are a deprecated type of non-standardized web application that ran on the Google Chrome web browser from 2010. Chrome apps could be obtained from the Chrome Web Store along with various free and paid extensions and themes. The apps came in two varieties: hosted (server-side) and packaged (client-side), with each format targeting different use cases. Support for Chrome apps in the Chrome Web Store was removed from Chrome in June 2022, except on ChromeOS where support for some Chrome Apps for Enterprise and Education customers has been extended until August 2028. ChromeOS, Linux, and Windows users could add a shortcut of a website as a Chrome app.

Google recommends migrating from Chrome apps to standards-based web applications and Chrome extensions.
