Change to Application

"Chrome OS" to "ChromeOS"

Should we update this page to reflect recent changes made by Google: https://9to5google.com/2022/03/15/google-prepares-chromeos-rebrand-to-drop-the-space/ — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.229.128.218 (talk) 15:46, 17 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Given that the source you cited says "Given the timing of the code change, it’s likely we won’t see this widespread rebranding of Chrome OS to "ChromeOS" until version 102, set to arrive in late May", so yes but not until it actually happens. --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 16:52, 17 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Should this be done now since the changes have happened and ChromeOS 102 is released? - RadioactiveFox (talk) 14:58, 23 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Got a ref that says this actually did happen? - Ahunt (talk) 15:01, 23 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Actually not sure, the google support site still calls it Chrome OS, and according to Android Police it is only labeled "ChromeOS" in the Canary version right now, so maybe wait until official google sources call it ChromeOS? RadioactiveFox (talk) 18:14, 23 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
