I was searching for YouTube clients on my KDE Plasma Bigscreen GNU/Linux TV box, and found NewPipe, a popular Android YouTube frontend. Turns out this tool is how they moved it over.
Great solution alongside projects like Waydroid, as you can post individual apps to Flathub or other Linux storefronts, rather than needing to install a whole ROM to get your Android apps to appear in your Linux app tray.
It doesn’t work like Wine, but I suppose the goal one day is to be able to click .APK files to install like you can with .EXE files with Wine. Currently developers need to integrate it for their (or their favourite open source) apps to install on Linux.
You can just open an apk file with this tool; apps don’t need to be integrated with it. It’s just that the implementation is far from complete and most apps will not work (correctly) right now.
Oh good to know! If you’ve tried it with any specific apps this way, would love to hear which ones work well and in what ways.
There are some wiki pages about that, feel free to extend them if you’re missing anything:
