Android apps run on ART, not the JVM (different bytecode, similar idea): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Android_Runtime https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Android_Runtime Many apps have native code as well, and Intel put a lot of time and money into automatic binary translation some years ago to make such apps work on x86 Android: https://www.anandtech.com/show/5770/lava-xolo-x900-review-the-first-intel-medfield-phone/3 https://www.anandtech.com/show/5770/lava-xolo-x900-review-th...
