A GitHub project called "ios-sweet" has enabled iOS to boot on Android devices by replacing the stock Linux kernel with Apple's custom XNU kernel and emulating iPhone X device drivers. The effort, part of a movement called "Hackios" inspired by Hackintosh, represents early-stage experimental work where many iOS components do not yet function. Developers are incrementally working to enable individual features one by one.

Key points

  • GitHub project replaces Android's kernel with Apple's XNU kernel
  • Spoofs iPhone X hardware to boot iOS on Android devices
  • Most features non-functional; community working to enable components
