Your Google Contacts sync to your Chromebook automatically these days. No flags or experimental settings needed like in the early days of ChromeOS.

How to Access Your Contacts

  1. Click the launcher and search for Contacts, or open the app from your app list.
  2. Your contacts from your signed-in Google account appear automatically.

How to Use Contacts from the Launcher

  1. Open the launcher and start typing a contact’s name.
  2. Click the contact to see options like sending an email or starting a video call.

Quick Tips

  • If you’ve linked your Android phone with Phone Hub, your phone’s contacts and recent calls show up on your Chromebook too.
  • Contacts stay in sync automatically as long as you’re signed into the same Google account on both devices.

Getting to your Google Contacts on a Chromebook is now built right in, with no setup needed beyond signing in.
