FAQ

What is a smart card?

Please refer to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smart_card.

Note that there also some devices that emulate a smart card, e.g., some of Yubikey devices (see https://www.yubico.com/authentication-standards/smart-card/).

Do I need the Smart Card Connector App?

You only need this in case you have a smart card (or a device that emulates it) and need to use it on your ChromeOS device for authenticating at web pages, remote desktop applications, logging into ChromeOS in enterprise deployments, etc.

Can I use it with my memory card (microSD, etc.)?

No. The Smart Card Connector App is only useful with smart cards.
