Q. I prefer Android and PC applications, but want to run Android on an iPad. I have a Kindle Fire, but I want the true Android environment, and the 10-inch Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 model is too expensive. However, I keep seeing reports that Google Drive, Photos, Docs and other Android apps work fine on iPads. By default, iPads run Apple’s iOS operating system, which is a different software platform from Google’s own Android operating system, and apps specifically written to run in Android do not work on iOS. The App Store has more than 50 iPad apps by Google that were written to run on iOS.
