he Raspberry Pi has been
used in many different
ways over the years by
many different people. Installing
Android on Raspberry Pi, while a
pretty popular idea, has never been
super-easy, though. Solutions have
existed in the past, but have never
worked like true Android.
Recently that’s all changed.
While limitations stopping Android
working properly on Raspberry
Pi were lifted some time ago, it’s
taken until now for a build of full
Android to be created by budding
hackers to run on the Pi. We look
at emteria.OS, the first proper
Android release for Raspberry Pi.
That’s not the only way to use
Android on Raspberry Pi either, as
Google has released an IoT-focused
version called Android Things.
Not sure which one to use? We’ll
show you how to use both, and
why you might want to, over the
following pages...
