Until you can hover on Android with a mouse, nope.

Hover over what exactly? What precisely do you need to pop up for to explain what it does?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Mouse hovers are used for a lot of things. Seeing the full URL in a status bar, determining if text is a link when the cursor changes, image hover display, displays in desktop pages that show when hovering, on and on. I use Android daily on a convertible tablet, and I much prefer the Chromebook, the hardware on the Tab S9 is what keeps me here.

Ah yeah I hear ya. Those are definitely useful functions. I love my Chromebook as well.
