Android compatibility looks feasible since the kit will be open source [1]. That should open up the ResearchKit demographic quite a bit!

Open? Like Facetime was supposed to be?


Why does this one keep getting trotted out, lets assume unless they get sued we're fine.

Not quite so feasible if the kit is written in Swift.


As the spec for Swift solidifies, we'll see open source implementations. I wouldn't be surprised if Apple ends up releasing Swift as open source eventually as well.
