Marcos Alves Well-Known Member Licensed User Longtime User Aug 10, 2018 #1 Hello all, I'm looking for a free emulator that I could use to embed an apk in order to allow the client to use it in a PC without needing to adapt or create a new code for desktop. Does anybody know the best tool to do this?

MarkusR Well-Known Member Licensed User Longtime User Aug 10, 2018 #6 why is the quantity important? Click to expand... because a android tablet is very cheap. this option is more for dual boot (see installation). myself never had success with it. http://www.android-x86.org/ windows 10 (i believe pro only) have hyper v where you can run any pc in pc, its a windows feature you can install from system control / Software / windows feature. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyper-V Upvote 0

The user wants to use the app in his desktop while he is in the office, like whatsapp web, and in his phone when mobile. That's the goal. With a good Android emulator that could embed the app I could use almost the same code for desktop and mobile phone, maintaining only one development job. Upvote 0

I checked XUI... it comes with Visual Studio... doesn't make sense to request to the user to install Android Visual Studio to use your app... it must to be a simple thing... he is a user, remember?

I already thought to convert the Android app to B4J but I use some libraries that could be very complicated to use in B4J: - ABTO Sip SDK: for voice calls... - FFMPEG to compact files - ULV: Ultimate List View for long lists with performance... I don't think even that it's possible to use these libraries in B4J... in other hand, I already tested in BlueStacks and worked fine (but BlueStacks is paid and I don't know if is possible to embed a pre-installed apk in this...)
