Currently x86 devices NOT supported.
Pretty damn good. I needed to jump through some hoops to get it working, but eventually I some older, non-directx steam games to run. A few bugs with screen scaling, as I cannot access portions of the screen, as they get cut off. All in all, I see massive potential in this and I'm excited to see further improvements.
It does work, but it is limited to 16bit color which means if you want to use it for Photoshop / GIMP or anything that needs accurate color you're going to want to pass. It is also darn slow, I thought I remembered how slow a 1ghz P3 was but I was wrong. This needs some serious improvements to be useful for productivity purposes.
This app only runs a small portion of my exe collections, most just crash on launch. It would be great to add on-screen keyboard and support more apps.
Not much... yet. This is the VERY first x86-to-ARM binary translator. It is going to someday be a work of art, but as of yet, no updates to the initial release to make some sense of the applicable indications of what this windows emulator could be capable of.
Hi, I installed the app and it crashed on launch. The app shows "Invalid response from Google Play Services" error. Thanks.
This sort of application would be perfect for a device like the Pixel C but it does not seem to be supported. The Pixel C is not an x86 unit so I don't understand why it would not work
This is a decent package that combines binary translation with WINE to allow using windows apps on android at fairly reasonable speeds. I do wish direct3d support wasn't disabled and would forward onto the android driver like WINE does on desktop, but maybe it needs OpenGL ES support added. At the least, this should be mentioned on the store page that this is currently not working. If they keep putting good effort into improving and adding these features, this could be a hands down recommended app for tablets and anyone wanting a quick go at a desktop app, but for now, it's a little early.
Gives me the "Invalid Response From Google Play Services" message, I have a rooted tablet, but I use the default Play store and services
Needs the ability to set compatibility modes for games that expect Windows 95, or that need to run in 256 colors. Also would be nice to have access to the built in Wine applications like explorer, cmd, and winecfg. Other than that, a great start.
Can't use.
It's a decent app, i just can't use it for what i want, since i wanted to install a program that supports windows 7 or over. And this app seems to run everything as windows xp.
At least got a refund back..tried to launch and got invalid response from Google play.

Developer was responsive to my issue with revision no longer being compatible with my Pixel C. Thanks for that! New app in the market, works but needs further function and refinement. Need to be able to toggle keyboard. I am using keyboard with Pixel C but ability to toggle on screen keyboard for special keys would be great. Would be great to load stand alone .exe files to the "start" menu for those applications without installers. Of course, further applications support would be great.
