You’ve probably heard of this new OS called “Sailfish OS”. Jolla, a company made up of ex-Nokia employees that were disappointed when the MeeGo project was killed, released its first flagship phone running Sailfish OS earlier this week.
Now, the company says it has big plans to attack the smartphone market head on by making Sailfish available for installation on existing Android devices to help it open up the platform to a wider audience rather than restricting it only to first party hardware.
In an interview with Finnish website, Talouselämä, Jolla CEO Tomi Pienimäki said that Jolla is a “device business and OS business. It is fairly easy to install the OS on Android devices.”
