Android Lollipop is sweet for Windows 7.x & 8.x devices

AMIDuOS has carefully tested thousands of Android apps to make sure users can enjoy apps requiring access to the Android 5.0.1 platform. AMIDuOS supports many improvements in Android Lollipop including compatibility with Android’s new ART runtime, native support for 64-bit apps and improved A/V sync and higher-performance graphics and audio.

Many Android apps are not available on the Windows 7/8 platform. Moreover, many Android apps are more expensive on Windows. Further, consumers who already paid for their app on the Android platform are often required to pay a second time to purchase the same app for Windows. Finally, developers often update apps on Android before doing so for Windows, meaning that the only way to get the latest and greatest version or features is to use the Android version. With AMIDuOS, compromise is a thing of the past. Now, users have access to the full library of Android apps on their Windows device, running either full-screen or in a window, while retaining the ability to switch over to their traditional Windows apps at any time, with no need to reboot. AMIDuOS is truly the best of both worlds.

After installing AMIDuOS with a quick download from www.amiduos.com, users get a full Android experience on their Windows device. They can view and manipulate the Android desktop just as they do on their native Android devices and download apps from Google Play or Amazon App Store. AMI has utilised its decades of expertise to build hardware acceleration support into the app, and support direct hardware access whenever possible. Emulation is only used when needed, otherwise code runs natively. This, plus 3D acceleration support, means incredible performance so games and video-intensive apps run smoothly and quickly. Since AMIDuOS can access native PC hardware and drivers, apps can take advantage of the touchscreen, sensors, peripherals, GPS, camera and more to deliver a fully immersive Android experience. AMI has tested AMIDuOS with over 4,000 apps and is continually releasing updates to improve compatibility.

AMIDuOS integrates Android tightly into the Windows environment. The clipboard is shared, so users can copy from an Android app and paste into Windows, or vice versa. In addition, AMIDuOS can also be configured to share files with the Windows side, to save a file in Android and then open it directly within Windows, for example. AMIDuOS runs best on a touch-screen enabled tablet, but is compatible with a keyboard and mouse setup as well. It also supports customisable keyboard mapping so users can assign physical keys to gestures such as swipe or pinch, for unsurpassed speed in games or other apps. In addition, gamepads are supported, so Android games can be enjoyed on a Windows system using gamepads designed for PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, Xbox One and more.

“People should be able to run their Android apps on any device they wish,” commented Subramonian Shankar, Founder and President, AMI. “We created AMIDuOS to make it easy for anyone to get the full Android experience on their Windows machines. Now, even the most recent Android apps developed for Android 5.0.1 will run smoothly and with full compatibility on the Windows platform.”
