> [!CAUTION]
> **Important:** Chrome will be removing support for Chrome Apps on all platforms. Chrome browser and the Chrome Web Store will continue to support extensions. [**Read the announcement**](https://blog.chromium.org/2020/08/changes-to-chrome-app-support-timeline.html) and learn more about [**migrating your app**](https://developer.chrome.com/docs/apps/migration).

Packaged apps are published in the same way as other types of apps in the Chrome Web Store. For
detailed instructions, see [Publishing Your App](https://developer.chrome.com/docs/webstore/publish).

**Tip:** If your app uses [Native Client](https://developer.chrome.com/docs/native-client), you can structure your application directory hierarchy
and zip file in a way that reduces the size of the user download package. For details, see [Reducing
the size of the user download package](https://developer.chrome.com/docs/native-client/devguide/distributing#chrome-apps).
