Compatibility & Limitation
6
Polaris® App Player can support about 80~90% of original android applications without re-compiling
or modification. About 10% of applications need to be re-compiled. And there might be an
application which needs to rewrite the source codes to be run on Polaris® App Player .
Restrictions
- A few of apps should be re-compiled with Polaris® App Player NDK to executed on Polaris® App
Player , because the native binary code from gcc (compiler for Android) is not 100% compatible with
each other compiler. We have tools to detect whether the apk needs to re-compile or not.
- Do not support Apps using the native API related to some Linux kernel functions, such as, fork, exec,
and so on.
- Widgets are not supported (Apps that are only meant to be widgets are not supported. Apps that
include widget functionality as a secondary feature are allowed.)
- Launcher Intent is not supported, Because there is no Launcher.
(for example, startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MAIN).addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_LAUNCHER));)
- Do not support Apps using the Android API level Bluetooth, Call, and SMS functions
- NFC related features are not supported
