Few days ago Google released their new, open beacon format - eddystone and today just updated Chrome for iOS that can scan for beacons broadcasting Eddystone URLs.

You can read more on our blog how to start broadcasting URL using beacons and how to test it on Chrome for iOS.

Is this supported on Chrome for Android?

At the moment it's iOS-only, but should come to Android as well soon.
