Android App Containers

Android App Containers

Install any of the millions of Android Apps on the FLX1. Controlling apk installations has never been easier on Linux phones and after installation the app icon appears on the desktop as if it was a native app.

All Android apps run in a container completely isolated from native system, but they can be controlled from the host making a very smooth and sound integration between the two. This reduces the duplication of resources and keeps the FLX1 humming like a bird.

Here in this video below I install / uninstall Aurora Store and X (Twitter).

Features

  • GPS Passthrough to host
  • File Sharing with host
  • NFC Passthrough with host

How did we do this?

@fakeshell has laboured heavily on this! He striped it down to it's bare bones and built it up again.

Caveats so far...
The only apps that won't work are ones that require the full Google Play Store and all it's requirements. This includes some banking apps and of course apps that have root protection.
