Androind app running on PC via CES 2012
I have the same app on my webOS phone, Android phone, with a PC equivalent installed. With the explosion of mobile devices, a new platform brings another set of apps one must download. The main problem I have is syncing all of these gadgets together. The going trend is to bring users into an eco system that requires one to stay in that area.
However an app designed by BlueStacks reverses that trend enabling you to use Android-based apps on your PC. BlueStacks ‘App Player’ allows the user to control or use almost any of the current 400,000 apps available and at full screen levels on both laptops and PC’s. The software was introduced back in October for Windows 7 but BlueStacks has updated the App Player to work with the up-coming Windows 8 OS as well as Microsoft’s Metro UI so you can use the app on just about everything running the respective software without the need for ‘port-over’ emulation. For more information on BlueStacks and to download the App Player see their site.
