There are different Android emulators
for PC in the market, but they have their limitations. In general, these
programs are designed as app launchers, particularly gaming apps. Andy
bridges the gap by delivering a complete Android tablet experience on PC. The
free emulator delivers a seamless connection between mobile and desktop,
enabling users to run all their communication apps from their computers.
Main Features
Uses the latest Android OSAllows downloading of apps from desktop browsers directly to the emulator Provides seamless synchronization between mobile devices and computers Allows users to access all their favorite entertainment and communication apps on computer Compatible with both Windows and Mac operating systems
Andy provided a
distinct tablet feel right from the installation stage. Once the download
process was complete, the dark-themed window that appeared displayed the
information: "Android is upgrading". It then displayed a welcome
screen that required us to choose our preferred language. When we clicked the
"Start" button, the emulator started connecting, identifying itself
as a tablet. We then went through the process of registering it with our
Google account and choosing various sync options.
At the end of the
setup process, the emulator once more identified itself as a tablet by
displaying the information: "Your tablet is set up and ready to
use." Indeed, when we clicked on the "Settings" menu, on the
upper left corner of the application window, and then clicked on "About
tablet", the model number displayed as GT-P5200, which is a Samsung
Galaxy tab. It was running Android version 4.2.2.
Andy comes with the
usual stock Android apps like messaging, email and even app store, which
allows you to download other apps. We could browse the Internet through Andy
and even use our Android communication apps like whatsapp, snapchat and
Viber. If you want to enjoy the touchscreen feel, then you can use your phone
to control the games you play on your desktop. You can also use keyboard
shortcuts.
The emulator gives
you full control on how you want to customize it. You can add and remove
widgets on the home screen or copy files directly from your desktop to the
emulator.
The virtual machine
Andy runs on also allows you to tweak things like base memory, but you should
not mess around if you are not sure of what you are doing.
Conclusion
Andy is a true
Android emulator that lets you use your computer as a tablet. It works fast
though it is resource-hungry.
