Windows phones are not getting sale because of the app deficit in windows store even though they are providing best cameras. On the other side Android became more popular because of its open source strategy and the majority of manufacturers opting the software platform. Of-course more rumors are going on in this tech world saying Nokia is going to release its first Android powered mobile and is going to demonstrate in the next World mobile congress. These rumors are not correct for a company like Microsoft, they can't step into two platforms at a same time (that too opting a rivalry platform is not good for such a reputed organization).
Already few virtualisation softwares like BlueStack are providing a virtual android platform experience on Windows but it is restricted to tablets and computers. A recent rumor published by Verge is Microsoft is going to take a step forward and is providing a virtual layer on top of windows for reading and executing Android apps. If this rumor comes to true then all windows mobile users can use all the android apps right from their mobiles and will remove the app deficit from windows store.
No details are available as of now, since Microsoft is yet to make a choice. Microsoft is reportedly keeping a close eye on the performance of Nokia’s new Android smartphone that may be launched at the Mobile World Congress, this month. The performance of the new smartphone is likely to be a deciding factor for Microsoft to take this call. If Microsoft approves this virtual layer windows users can enjoy using both the windows and android apps.
