  • Windows 10 for Phones will have a Android subsystem enabling it to run ported Android apps
  • Android apps can be easily ported as universal Windows 10 apps. Most of Android code can be used.
  • iOS apps can also be ported easily as universal apps.
  • And a surprising revelation. Candy Crush Saga on Windows Phone is an iOS port. So, Microsoft already knows that app porting will be a hit with Windows Phone users.
