But @pichlo has a valid point there; If Android sucks so much (and it does) it is largely because of Android applications.
So you want to run Android applications on SFOS. Oh yeah!

The banking application case is a tough one, as you need either persuade the banks to open up the interfaces[*] or reverse-engineer them. And banks are notoriously thick-headed institutions pretty much governed by the beancounter-type-subspecies of human race.

Bitcoin is a different beast, the algorithms are public and implementations are open source. Nothing prevents you from building your own for SFOS.


[*] Actually opening up the interfaces is not hopeless as there is an EU initiative ongoing that will mandate that banks have to open the interfaces for external parties... Let's see what comes from that.

Ofcourse there is nothing prevent people from make a bitcoin app.

But I personally have no time. I have to have a life outside 100% work except play with mobile.

Facts stand if jolla want to move forward they have to get SFOS on more mobiles or else the can shutdown the company.

May I suggest that you try not using it and then see if that fixes your problems?

I heard some insider information (still unconfirmed) that Alien Dalvik and other Commercial parts will be provided as paid apps in Jolla Store, after the store support paid apps.

Is that just for the Fairphone 2, or will they provide AD for other polished ports too?

Great news! This would be a major step forward for the whole Sailfish ecosystem...

BUT, paid apps support was one of the most wanted features from the beginning and first held out in prospect by Jolla for 2nd half of 2014. So, any indication WHEN paid apps support will be available?
