Remix OS is a computer operating system for personal computers. It is based on Android-x86 — a port of the Android operating system. It allows users to run Android applications on a PC.[2][3] It was developed by Jide Technology, who announced in January 2016 that it would be made available at no cost.[4] Jide makes individual computers running the Remix OS, like the Remix Mini, but a version of Remix OS Beta for the PC is also available. The beta version of Remix OS brings hard drive installation, 32-bit support, UEFI support and OTA updates. Unlike Android-x86, the source code of Remix OS is not available to the public.[5]
