This tool is pretty useful for testing APKs if you don’t feel like doing it on your device…
Here’s a vid on how to load APK’s from disk…
I tried Bluestacks awhile ago and it was far too slow to use. Just tried is again a few weeks back and it runs really nice now. I do have a number of Android devices but it’s still nice to be able fire up an APK on a PC just to try it out.
I did try it also before. its better now, but it still bad.
You still need a real phone to test it out on to be sure it do work as designed.
Some stuff you can test withe Unity 3D Remove, but that is also a bit slow.
