The Finnish company is making real progress with their Sailfish OS, announcing that it is now capable of directly running Android apps without any modifications. The company is also coordinating with leading global app stores to make sure that Sailfish users can seamlessly download Android apps just as they would on any Android device. In addition, Sailfish can also run on common hardware produced for Android, particularly smartphones and tablets. This means that vendors won't be restricted to using Jolla smartphones and can use existing Android hardware ecosystem. “We believe Sailfish with Android compatibility is a highly relevant mobile operating system option for major mobile companies in Europe and in Asia.
