I haven't tried bluestacks. I might, but I think an emulator or vm
might be better for me, since I want to go through an entire app
download and setup procedure from download to operation, as an android
user would experience it. This might work for observing individual
apps, so it's on my possibles list.<br>
<br>
Anyone using this product might want to look at their terms. My eyes
glazed over after 2 paragraphs. But it looks like they have some
"interesting" terms regarding them tracking what you do and potentially
sending your phone text messages, etc. I would read it more thoroughly
if I was going to use the product.<br>

doesn't help. My work machine is a dual Xeon E5-2667 (6 cores each,<br>
2.9GHz) with 64 GB of RAM and it still takes about 25 minutes to compile<br>
and start the emulator. If the image is saved, it takes about 6 minutes<br>
to start. Run speed is also incredibly sluggish, taking about 10-15<br>
seconds to register a click/tap on the virtual screen.<br>
