Don’t be too fooled by the title. Yes you can get the basic look and feel of the Windows OS on your iDevice, and a pretty realistic one at that, but still the functionality that iWindows provides is quite limited for now, rendering it a mere toy app. However, there is potential and promise there for something pretty amazing. So what exactly is iWindows? iWindows is an iOS app, available at the Cydia store for jailbroken users, which simulates Windows 7 on your device.
The developers of this simulator have planned to improve this app step by step (that is, starting from almost zero and adding functionalities with each update). So understandably, there are just 2 features in the app for now, Notepad and Google Chrome.
Notepad gives you three colors in which you can input and save text. While Google Chrome opens up in a fashion exactly like in the real Windows 7, and works just fine too. The simulator might be lacking in functionality, but full marks for the UI. If you are a little sleepy you really might feel like you are running Windows 7!
