I will test different games and show you how you can install the apk directly to your emulator through the Aow tools. The installation is very easy but the main feature is the Google emulator is very lightweight and there are many optimizations done by google to the emulator which makes the emulator super lightweight and lag-free.

There are 2 version of the android emulator now: one is stable (Recommended) and another is beta. Ok without further delay, let’s start our today’s tutorial.
