Google recently created a support badge for tech accessories that are compatible with [Chromebook](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/repairable-chromebook) devices. These products will initially be available in the United States, Canada, and Japan, and will have a support badge that reads, 'Works with Chromebook.'

Google will be testing all accessories to ensure they are entirely compatible with [Chromebooks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chromebooks) and meet certain standards. Google has already certified products form a few prominent brands and the list includes Anker, Kensington as well as [Logitech](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/logitech-pen).

Creating the support badge will help consumers immediately know which products will be compatible with their Chromebook, and it could also help them explore other products that could enhance the ways they can use their device.
