Leapdroid is defunct, per. (I can’t even bring up a new subdomain on my company website that was created summer2017, using the default browser of the Leapdroid app, on my computer.) Q: What is LeapDroid?
A: LeapDroid is an Android emulator. It runs the whole Android system inside Windows using state-of-the-art virtual machine technologies. LeapDroid Inc was founded in April 2015 by Huan Ren and Huihong Luo. LeapDroid emulator was released to public in June 2016.
LeapDroid is based in Silicon Valley. Q: What is the future plan for LeapDroid? A: We have decided to discontinue the development of LeapDroid emulator as we focus on our next adventure at Google. Q: Is LeapDroid now a part of Google? LeapDroid is not affiliated with Google.
Q: Will you continue to support existing LeapDroid users? If you have LeapDroid already installed, you can continue to use it. There will be no further support offered to LeapDroid users. Q: How can I find previous LeapDroid builds?
A: Since previous LeapDroid builds don’t pass Android Compatibility Test, we have taken them offline. Well, let’s see. First was BlueStacks, then Genymotion.
Bluestacks was tried on a Windows8 PC, Genymotion was tried on a Mac running OS 10.10. Both machines have 4 Intel cores, 16 gigs of RAM and high-end graphics with nothing else to do. BlueStacks was the most lenient. At worst, it would just go black-screen, while Genymotion all but crashed the whole system.
I kept getting the impression that it was losing track of the VM session and stuff of that nature. By the way, I hate all of these external dependencies. What they could run, they ran very well, but the apps which demanded special graphics modes, like Minecraft PE would always cause trouble. Problem is that those were the ones I was most interested in running. I will definitely give droid4x a try. Thanks for the recommendation!
Think I’ll be skipping Droid4X, and you should too, unless you like installing software from the same country – Communist China – that routinely hacks and just completely stole the personal data of every current and former U.S. Government employee, including personal medical records of military vets and their families so the regime can blackmail, threaten, and otherwise coerce Americans.
Shame on Techapple for even including Droid4X on its list and for recklessly suggesting users run out and download it without telling them of the obvious dangers and liabilities. Note – my anti virus program has been working overtime trying to remove bluestack and all its malware. Note you will also probably get something called ‘bluetacks notification centre’ downloaded that when you try and delete it, all you get is a message asking if you want to update the bluestack application (which I have already deleted). If this has nothing to do with their application, I imagine that with the millions they are racking in from charging $24 US a year to run free android apps – that they may wont to look into the damage that is being done under their name.
Hi CHAITANYA, Thanks for your reply but I think you did not read my question closely: I do not have a mobile phone and do not want to get one, but would like to be able to use (on my windos7 pc) the communication apps that are based on mobile phone OS such as Android witout having to install all those complicated and seemingly trouble-ridden emulator programs. But I have a feeling it isn’t going to be possible because the info I read about the WebClient you recommended requires you to have a mobile phone! Yes, there seems to be an option in Genymotion Business edition. I think that should work. But, I can’t afford that at this moment.
And Donkey Guard is not working since Xposed Installer is not working. However, I found a way to authenticate my number for ICICI Pockets using a simple hack. When ICICI Pockets fails to read the number from Android system, it tries to authenticate by sending an encrypted SMS. So, it actually generates a message & triggers the messaging app with write message option with the encrypted message written (stupid authentication system by ICICI really). Then I actually typed that message in my feature phone & send it to the shown number & bingo! Well done ICICI bank!
And lastly, thank you very much for bringing my notice to Genymotion. Really appreciate it! I got bluestacks. Working fine.
I also got the droid4x. Worked magnificently. Until i tried and installed Andy.
It ‘broke’ my Droid4x. Now i’m trying to fix my Droid. If all else fails, i’ll just re install Droid4x from this site. I’m just sharing that installing droid4x and Andy isn’t the best decision and i recommend you guys avoid it if you are happy with droid4x. Will try Windroy later. Thanks ? PS.
Thanks for this wonderful article(?) because i’ve been searching for android emulators for few weeks now and none were good. Then i found this. Tried droid and poof. Its wonderful ? easy to install, easy to use.
I have tried most of the android emulators shown, as I have a new Windows 10 Pro computer 32 GB Ram, 1.5TB disk, AMD 6-core processor and I still can’t get Jurassic World (Updated version) to run on it. I also have a win7 laptop with bluestacks and that works fine with the updated version of Jurassic World. My android tablet just baulked at the update and now refuses to load the game as it’s now too big. Bit concerned when win7 is no longer supported though.
Has anyone got any ideas as I’m out of them. I am from India. I installed bluestacks in my laptop and have never used it much. Today I just opened it and got a notification to pay $2 or install 3 apps. Obviously I neither want to pay nor install some stupid apps. Upon searching for Android Emulators, I stumbled upon this page.
Nice info all over. I think I only have Droid4X as an option.
My only requirement for an emulator is for WhatsApp. Maybe I will try 3rd party twitter apps later. Kindly tell me if any other emulator other than Droid4X is better for my above mentioned requirement. Many thanks for the article and also to all those who’ve shared their emulator experiences. I very much appreciate that TechApple allowed a comments section to this article page: because of this, I was able to read how dodgy, sketchy, and otherwise ‘unwise’ it would be to use an Android Emulator just before actually installing one, considering that I already have a bevvy of Android devices and are just tired of dealing with their dodgy wi-fi connectivity issues compared to my laptops.
Figuring what I will do now is just favour the actual Android devices, and if they lose connection (they always do) then I won’t break my head over it (my goal was really just to participate in Google Opinion Rewards and to check my voicemail in a free-phone app anyway). For those of you who are putting your $500+ computers in jeopardy installing this crap, used Android phones on Kijiji start at around $40wouldn’t you think that would make more sense? From the sound of the majority of these emulators, they are either subscription-based or are otherwise bundled with malwareI don’t need that headache in my life thank you.
But thanks for the article TechApple: ). It’s nice to see Droid4X included on a list of best Android emulators for PC. I think it’s pretty underrated for it’s ease of use and performance. Another emulator that continues to improve is MEmu.
I use this occasionally along with Nox App Player. A while ago I tested 8 Android emulators in benchmark scores, and the results were pretty interesting. Nox and Bluestacks generally did the best, but Remix OS achieved a high score in CPU multitasking.
Check it out when you have time.
