The developer of Xposed framework “rovo89” has gone ahead and provided an update behind the delay in releasing a compatible version of the framework for Nougat. The developer has explained in the post the reason behind the delay in getting Xposed framework to work on the latest and sweetest version of Android.
Rovo explains that with Nougat, Google has changed some fundamental parts of Android. This is evident from how fast applications under Nougat due to the slower interpreting mode compared to the AOT compiler that was used in Lollipop. The new compiler along with the addition of JIT results in various compilation states that increase complexity. Add in other issues that existed in previous versions and things get even more complex. It’s not like Xposed framework will not come to Nougat. The developer has already done a fair bit of research but has been unable to implement it due to the lack of time. So, if you have been eagerly waiting for Xposed framework to arrive, be prepared for the wait to continue.
