Is it possible to convert an android app to blackberry app? I read that it's possible on Blackberry PlayBook, with limitations but it can be possible. I would like to know if i can convert an android smartphone app to run in a blackberry smartphone.

Thanks in advance!

Blackberry 10 & Playbook run on the QNX operating system. They provide the Android runtime environment for loading Android applications.

Blackberry smartphones that use OS version 7 or earlier run on Blackberry's java JVM instead and do not support Android at all.

There will be many limitations while porting your code on BB10 or Playbook. Like version should be at least 2.3, widgets will not be supported.

There's no straight way to convert an android application to a BlackBerry smartphone application that runs RIM OS operating system. The most recent version of RIM OS is 7.1.

But for BB 10 devices it is announced that these devices and BB 10 OS will support Android applications.
