Unofficial ports of official apps?

[batuhanbkeskin]

Do you think it will be possible to see unofficial ports of official android/ios apps (not in store for sure, only in developer unlocked phones) with the release of Windows 10? Some local apps are lacking in the store and this unofficial ports may be a relief until developers decide to release official wp apps.

Yup I was thinking the same.
This is surely gonna happen, since only a little work is required by the developers to port their apps to wp. Any one with a bit knowledge of coding can do so

This is already happening. Check out ported for tumblr. Except this is actually a store app.

He means to personally grab the APK file and convert it to W10M app. I'm curious as well but it's probably unlikely since for complex app there're still lots of things need to be fixed to make the port functional.

For the complex apps, an xda like community would be needed

I've been hoping the same thing. I'm pretty sure it will happen.
