Hello,

I have an android tablet that can only run APK files but when I go to Google Play and Download the [Ignition Perspective App](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.inductiveautomation.perspectiveapp&hl=en_US&gl=US) I get an XAPK file. Is there a way to convert this file to APK?

Thanks for any info.
