Android-x86 and GNU/Linux developer Arne Exton announced the immediate availability of a new build of his RaspAnd distribution for Raspberry Pi single-board computers.

RaspAnd Build 160625 is the first to move the Android-x86-based distro to the latest Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow mobile operating system created by Google. And in the good tradition of the RaspAnd project, both Raspberry Pi 3 Model B and Raspberry Pi 2 Model B are supported.

However, the good news is that RaspAnd now comes with GAPPS (Google Apps) pre-installed, allowing users to access almost all of Google's services, including but not limited to Google Play Store, Gmail, YouTube, Google Maps, Google Play Services, and Hangouts.
