Who wins if Windows 10 were compatible with Android apps?

There are barely a few hours left before the start of the most important event in Microsoft's recent history, which is how the executives of this company have referred to Build 2015 this afternoon, and among the many rumors revolving around what could be announced is gaining more and more strength that of the compatibility with Android applications in Windows 10.

This implementation may not be liked by everyone, after all it may hurt more than one pride that there are people who refer to it as proof that Windows needs Android. But this is not true, we all know it, and if we approach the idea with a cool head we will realize that it is a movement in which we all would win

Users earn

In recent years the catalog of Android applications has experienced a huge increase in the quality of its applications, and on more than one occasion the app for a product, service or game ends up being better than its native versions for PC, or it may even not be possible to use the service directly on our computer because it is exclusively for mobile platforms

Wouldn't it be nice to be able to enjoy the good design or the exclusive service of applications like Snapseed on our computer? In fact, I'm sure existing Android users would also welcome the ability to use not only certain apps, but also some popular games from the community on a laptop or desktop.

Developers win

When a person develops an application, they do so with the dream of reaching the maximum number of people possible And although Android is the leading operating system in mobile devices, if the number of potential users is added to the number that will have Windows 10, we can only interpret it as good news for them.

In fact, the supposed cases in which an Android application had more repercussions on PC than on mobile phones, which surely the It would have, it could make many of the developers realize the importance of Windows 10, and they could consider daring with a universal application, which in turn would also benefit Microsoft.

Windows Phone wins

No matter how much better it takes advantage of a device's resources, it is clear that if a mobile operating system fails to include certain key applications in its catalog, it is doomed to grow more slowly than it deserves in its number of users, although over time the defect can be solved.

Admittedly, this is one of the biggest challenges facing Microsoft, so benefit from the Android ecosystem It could help both its mobile platform and Project Spartan if it could finally be compatible with Chrome extensions. Although yes, this should in no case stop the development of own and native applications in the mobile version of Windows 10.

Google wins

As much as this implementation stung the search engine company by undoing its strategy of deliberately ignoring Windows Phone when developing its mobile applications, it wouldn't tear their clothes too much, because in the deep down they know that in the long run they also benefit

And as we said above, developers could use this move, which would make many of them try harder to stand outin growing competition, and give more importance to the design of their applications, which in turn would help not only to increase the quantity, but also the quality in the Android catalog.

But all this is conjecture from a server, because in the end with them we are validating some rumors that in a few hours could come to nothing. Trying to respect the opinions of others, what do you think of this possibility?
