Is it possible to build an apk for testing in the Android Studio emulator (or something else like Genymotion for that matter) or do I have to test on an actual device? I’m using Mac.
I’m having trouble opening my built apk on Android Studio and am wondering if it’s even possible anyway. I did some searches and couldn’t find much about it.
In my experience it is a waste of time to test on a emulated device.
Unless you have a super powerful machine, it will be slow. Also, last I checked, the emulated devices were single-threaded code so they take forever to load and run.
At the end of the day, it isn’t tested unless you test on a real device.
Yes it will be a little slow but other apps work no problem. They are playable. So it should at least work, thanks for the confirmation. It’s fine to test if they function but not good for a speed test.
