Which Android Emulator
« on: May 07, 2021, 07:27 AM »
Which Android Emulator do you use?
All I found are complicated to install or do not work as expected.
Yours look very clean and without adds.

Could you suggest your emulator? Then we could try your Apps on PC as well.

Although this thread is rather old, it's still unanswered ;) I'm using and tested the following emulators:

Bluestacks
Nicely integrated into the operating system, works fine but has a phone home to its manufacturer and it's hard to root it. Also doesn't support game cheating tools like Gameguardian.

MEmu
I my opinion the best Android emulator. Supports multiple Android versions, works like a charm, has built-in root and works with the most apps. my absolute favourite.

LD player
works, but for my taste not the best emulator.

No recomendation for Nox as it's too restrictive; I hate to get patronized what apps I must not install - my computer, my decision.

In general there are more Android emulators I didn't test yet:
LDPlayer, Droid4X, MOMO, KOPlayer, Andy, Leapdroid, AMIDuOS, Windroye, RemixOS, PhoenixOS, AVD, Genymotion

Also you could work with native Android (Android x86), but I didn't manage to get it running in VMs like VMware or Virtualbox.

Don't forget if you're running Windows 11 you've got Windows Subsytem for Android.
