      You could use BlueStacks. It’s a bit ad laiden, but it’s not bad.

        Hard disagree. They (and most other Android emus) are sketchy as hell, I believe using them for anything authentication related would be dangerous

          Your point is so good that I down voted MYSELF. Thanks! I may stop using it now. I used it back when it felt more unshitty, but it’s crept shittier and shittier and it does feel super sketchy now.

          VM all the way I suppose.

        BlueStacks is so fucking heavy though. I only have it so I can view a single camera from my desktop, but it’s amazing how much ram it gobbles up while running.

          Same actually. I use it to view a cam. It takes many resources and hobbles the system.
