Wine 3.0 arrives on Android to allow you run Windows applications on your phone

collected by :Maya Tony

as declared in Wish you can do further with your smartphone than just run Android? Codeweavers is working to sort you out: it's just released version 3.0 of the Wine compatibility layer for Linux-based systems, which can this time be built into an Android Package Kit package and installed on your Android device. In addition, Wine v3 works best with x86 Android devices than those powered with ARM processors; if you're on the latter, you'll be limited to running applications which were ported to Windows RT (the XDA Developers forum has a nice list of them). Regardless of your processor type, you'll want to bring your own Windows programs to the device, because none are bundled with this build. If this sounds like your cup of tea, give Wine 3.0 a go with grabbing the stable build Android Package Kit for your x86 or ARM-based device from this page.
