It's unlikely, every OS has its own system calls and they are all different. Also Android apps are based on Java and iOS isn't. I doubt it would even install.

Re: An ARM, an apple and a raspberry.
Same thing, the system calls and the app structure are too different to work interchangeably.

I imagine some sort of virtualization would work well. Likely that would be faster than translating from ARM to X86 instructions set.richmond62 wrote: ↑Sun Apr 24, 2022 5:04 pmActually I meant Macintosh computers with ARM chips.Also Android apps are based on Java and iOS isn't.
Someone has already gotten a Linux desktop OS to build and boot on Apple Silicon, but that may have problems with graphics acceleration since I'm sure that's closed source proprietary GPU driver.
