See, it turns out that the Rabbit R1 seems to run Android under the hood and the entire interface users interact with is powered by a single Android app. A tipster shared the Rabbit R1’s launcher APK with us, and with a bit of tinkering, we managed to install it on an Android phone, specifically a Pixel 6a.

Edit: Someone also got doom and Minecraft running on this thing

    Yeah, but everyone could see that as soon as they released it.

    It doesn’t matter how it’s implemented, it could have been done as an app from day one.

    But they made it a device instead because it makes it easy to raise funds and to get journalists to talk about it. As simple as that.
