Setting up Tailscale on a Chromebook
You can install Tailscale on a Chromebook from the Google Play Store. It runs as an Android app on your device.
Some policies might prevent you from installing Android apps on a Chromebook. If your device is on a network that prevents installing Android apps, there is currently no alternative to install Tailscale.
- From the Launcher, open Play Store.
- Locate the Tailscale application and select Install.
- Open the Tailscale app and select Get Started. When the Connect request dialog displays, select OK.
- Select Log in and sign in using your SSO identity provider.
- When the Notifications dialog displays, select Continue.
- When the Allow Tailscale to send you notifications? dialog displays, choose whether you want the client to display notifications.
Congratulations! You’ve added your Chromebook to your Tailscale network.
