When we talk about PWAs and web apps, that is part of the awesomeness we see in this future. We’ve not tested the actual app too much just yet, but I was extremely excited to see that this PWA isn’t locked down to a single device and is readily available to everyone right at the URL location. This worked on every device we tried from tablets to Chromebooks to convertibles to Chromeboxes to Chromebases. Clicking this option puts an icon in your app launcher and simply gives the app its own window to live inside. Additionally, every Chrome OS device we did this on gave us the option to install the app right up in the Omnibox.
For Cursive, the URL is and when you navigate there, you are thrust right into the welcome screen and a quick tutorial for the app.
Up in the top bar, there’s a 3-dot menu and inside that menu is an option to copy the URL for the app. Once you have any PWA installed on a device, it’s fairly simple to find the URL where that web app actually resides. Install the Cursive PWA on your Chromebook right now Instead, my first move was to find the URL of the web app and see if it would work on other devices. We’re planning a whole review of Cursive as it seems many of you were interested in it when it was announced, but for now I’ve not had a lot of time to actually spend on it. When we first unboxed the HP Chromebook X2 11 (that video is being edited as we speak), Cursive was right there waiting for us right alongside QuickDrop. Instead, it is a web-based PWA and that means anyone can give it a whirl right now.
The bigger, more interesting app that HP announced, however, is called Cursive, and it is a new note taking app from Google that isn’t confined to the Google Play Store. It’s a great service for quickly moving files from your phone to your Chromebook and the setup process takes almost no time whatsoever.
We already dug in and found HP QuickDrop and showed everyone how they can start using it right now. With the announcement of the HP Chromebook X2 11, HP also revealed that it would be launching this unique Chromebook/tablet/detachable with a couple unique apps on board.
