Google Chrome's days could be numbered, as Android transforms into an all-around operating system for every device powered by Google.

Chrome is currently the operating system Google uses to help run its Chromebook laptops, but the company will soon shift its Android operating system to take over, CNet reports.

According to a report from The Wall Street Journal, Android, which helps run many smartphones and tablets, will merge with Chrome to power all devices, including laptops.

Google will release this combined operating system in 2017. The company will work on the software throughout 2016 and show off a preview version sometime that year. The Chrome OS will be available to other companies, but Google wants to get Android out to their laptops.

The Chrome operating system already has a limited presence in the consumer laptop field, with just 3 percent of all laptops using the operating system, according to research firm IDC.

Google has continued to improve the Android operating system since it was acquired in 2005. Now, Android powers TV guide menus, car dashboards and smartwatches, in addition to smartphones and tablets.

Android has dominated the smartphone market, powering 4 out of every 5 smartphones around the world.

When Android takes over Chrome OS, it will expand beyond its traditional sphere of mobile devices and begin appearing on personal computers. Chromebook laptops will continue to be made, but they will get a new name, according to the report from WSJ.

Meanwhile, Microsoft is operating in a similar fashion with their Windows 10 operating system. The company wants to push Windows 10 on every consumer device available, including smartphones, tablets, laptops and even video game consoles. Apple says it will keep their mobile software iOS separate from desktop and laptop software Mac OS.
