"I'm like a dog chasing a car," said the Joker (as a general rule, he may not be the best person to quote, though perspective on unpaid work It works in the field of communication). "I didn't know what to do when I reached one."
Corellium seems to have reached the car and, like the dog's speed and stamina, wondered what that meant. And he is worried that they will pass him by.
Last Wednesday, as reported The cult of Mac, the company introduced the public beta of the Sandcastle project, a software which allows you to install and use Android 10 for a limited number of iPhones. That's quite impressive, and something that will upset Apple, which has already accused Corellium of it one thing.
But at the same time it doesn't work at all. First of all, as Cult of Mac points out, that doesn't allow you to install apps from the Play Store and is incompatible with camera, audio, Bluetooth and mobile data. Using an iPhone in these situations is like trying to ride a bicycle dressed like a Caponata Chicken, at the same time something we would like to see.
Of course, at the moment this seems like an idea rather than a finished product, but even though Corellium can fix all of these problems, we still have many questions, starting with: "why?"; followed by: "seriously, why?" and "My God, what did you think?" And yes, Apple fans sometimes lament the company's restrictions on its use hardware and software, but iOS is one of the best things about iPhones and it's the last thing we will change. As one of my colleagues mentioned, we would love to have iOS on an Android phone.
The founders of Corellium have a national background breaking into prison. We suspect Sandcastle is not satisfied with the terms and that they have used it in the sense that iPhone owners cannot install any software to hardware pay them for it. So, they decided to install Android so they could do it. We appreciate her attitude, and would like to have companies of this type, but at the same time we feel that they shouldn't.
We are the first to see how upset it is when Apple accepts the status quo and tells us how everything will work from now on. It was annoying when they stopped associating with Flash. It was annoying when they stopped using the light discs. It was annoying when the iPhone stopped having a hole
This is a decision to make when deciding to buy an iPhone or an Android terminal. Do you want total control or are you ready to let the manufacturer talk about how you can use it to get better information? We totally understand why many choose the first option, but often it is reasonable (as long as you can afford the price, another factor that should not be overlooked) to accept that Craig Federighi understands more than a combination of locations software.
So no, we won't rush to install Android on our iPhones, though we are surprised to know that it's possible. Now, if you disagree and have an iPhone 7 or iPhone 7 Plus on hand, you can download the beta version at
