  • Can Android (APK) Files Run On Linux?

    Abox doesn't work and I can't get Waydroid to install.
    Are there any WORKING emulators in the repo that will let me run APK files?

    1. Install virtual machine software such as VirtualBox or VMware
    2. Download a copy of Android-x86 and install it in a virtual machine.
