How Can I Use Apps On A Windows Pc?
5 Answers
Since I retired 7 years ago, I feel I have slipped out of touch with current trends in technology.
Several people have said to me "I did it with this app" (or 'that app').
I do not have an i-pad, i-phone or i-anything, just an old laptop and a desktop running Windows 7.
I therefore wondered if there is an easy way that lets me download and run an 'app' on my desktop?
Do I need an Android Emulator? How well do they work? Will the apps integrate with other software on my PC?
What has particularly caught my eye are a few filter apps for use with i-phone camera images. Can I get them to work with images that I have loaded into GIMP on my PC?
Any suggestions appreciated.

I was fully aware what an App was and that as Apps are written for other operating systems, I don't expect them to work on a different platform.
I was just asking if there was an emulator that could be run on Windows 7 that would allow apps to run, and if so, how well it worked.
It would appear not. Thanks for trying anyway. I'll just stick with GIMP filters for now.
