If you are one of the many people that wishes you can use the apps you love from your phone on your computer, you're in luck. Thanks to Google's new Chrome app, ARC Welder, you can now run your favorite apps like Duolingo, Clash of Clans, or Vine, all from your Chrome web browser.

If you'd like to figure out how to run your apps from your browser, follow these steps:

1. Download and install the ARC Welder Chrome app from the Chrome Web Store.

2. Launch the app and select the .apk file you want to run.

3. Finally, select the settings for the app. (landscape or portrait mode, tablet or phone mode, etc.)

4. Launch your app and have fun using it!

This is new software, so, as usual, expect bugs, and expect plenty. Many apps will work swimmingly with the new ARC Welder, many won't. It's important to contact the developer for any application with bugs, and this is no exception, so when you reach problems, let Google know.
