Rosen Sharma, CEO of BlueStacks, indicated in a recent interview that the team had made predictions on where they would be in one year and &#8220;no one said 10 million.&#8221; No one was even close as the most optimistic was just in the few hundred thousand range.<\/p>\n<p>BlueStacks&#8217; senior VP for marketing notes that downloads do not necessarily equal users running the software on a regular basis. However, the number is described as being &#8220;spooky high,&#8221; which is a good sign that there is interest out there on the part of users trying to access Android apps on non-Android hardware.<\/p>\n<p>One issue the BlueStacks team is working on is trying to update the version of Android the app player uses with a Jelly Bean compatible version in the works. This effort is no doubt helped by the partnerships BlueStacks continues to work on, like the recently announced <a  href=\"http:\/\/www.talkandroid.com\/147008-lenovo-brings-android-applications-to-windows-8-computers-with-bluestacks\/\">effort with Lenovo<\/a> to install BlueStacks on Windows 8 PCs.<\/p>\n<p>source: <a  href=\"http:\/\/www.talkandroid.com\/147008-lenovo-brings-android-applications-to-windows-8-computers-with-bluestacks\/\">AllThingsD<\/a><\/p>\n<p><br \/>\n<strong>Come comment on this article: <a  href=\"http:\/\/www.talkandroid.com\/160675-bluestacks-hits-10-million-downloads-in-one-year\/\">BlueStacks hits 10 million downloads in one year<\/a><\/strong>\n<br \/>\n<div style=\"text-align:right;\"><small>Visit <a  rel=\"dofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/www.talkandroid.com\/\">TalkAndroid for Android news<\/a>, <a  rel=\"dofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/www.talkandroid.com\/guides\/\">Android guides<\/a>, and much more!<\/small><\/div><\/p>\n<img src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~r\/AndroidNewsGoogleAndroidForums\/~4\/ri15i-R7P5A\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\"\/>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BlueStacks, the software that lets you run Android apps on a desktop computer, is celebrating just over a year of availability in beta status with news of hitting the 10 million download mark.
