A way more robust mobile emulator than the one provided by Android Studio

  • February 10, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Genymotion is based on Virtual Box to provide reliable and performant virtual mobile testing devices. You can customize any parameter for the device which gives you a lot of flexibility. The device is detected as physical device instead of as an emulator.
What do you dislike about the product?
Each device is a Virtual Box VM wich means that if you don't keep an eye on the different virtual devices created, you will end will a bloated up hard drive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The virtual devices are much more stable and performant as the ones created by the official emulator. You will save e lot of time and money because using Genymotion will reduce the physical testing devices that you company will need.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
You should consider paying for the cloud solution, that way you won't need to create the virtual devices locally and everything will be stored in a cloud server

Best alternative to slow android studio avd

  • June 08, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Genymotion is very easy to use to begin with. It also gives developers access to different devices of different android versions that consumes less ram than android avds in android studio. Genymotion also lets me to easily set dummy device location while testing location aware mobile applications.
What do you dislike about the product?
Genymotion is the best alternative to the slow android avds in android studio. It saves me time so I would only reccommend it to those still using android studio avds instead of genymotion.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have used Genymotion in building, debugging and testing android applications. Its easy to integrate with the current version of android studio, its fast not like the android emulators thats comes with android studio, its easy to add new devices and its also easy to install gapps.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking for a faster android emulator to test, build and debugg android applications just go for genymotion. Its faster and easily integrates with android studio. In short am just trying to help you save time and increase productivity.

Best android emulator for testing and debugging

  • May 26, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I have been using genymotion for more than three years now while developing android applications with android studio. Genymotion consumes less computer resources compared to other android virtual devices and also emulates most of device features. In the current edition genymotion is also easy to connect with local web servers such as wamp, xampp and lamp. Its also easy to add more android virtual devices to test an android application in as many android versions as possible.
What do you dislike about the product?
Genymotion is my favorite android emulator and I do not find anything I dislike in it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Genymotion have been an important tool whenever we are developing android applications. Its makes the processes of testing and debugging very easy making every develper more productive.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Genymotion is the best android emulator to use while debugging and testing android applications. It consumes less computer resourses and avails many real android devices to a developer.

Straightforward device simulator

What do you like best about the product?
Genymotion is extremely easy to get up and running.
What do you dislike about the product?
If anything, the UI is a little bit unpleasant.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Genymotion as a mobile developer to test the apps I'm building. The biggest benefit is being able to test an app on a wide variety of virtual devices within one platform.

Easy to use Android Virtual Device Manager

  • November 18, 2016
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's easy to use. It's really amazing how quickly you can setup an android simulator and start testing any code. Genymotion offers a lot of speed and stability.

I'ts great that it works on Windows, Linux and Mac. Installation is super easy, however you must have Oracle's VirtualBox on your machine.

What do you dislike about the product?
First of all, I don't like the fact that you have to create an account to use the free version even if this version has so many limitations for development options.
It's not available for older versions of Windows (XP/VIsta) or any 32 bit Windows.


What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Testing and debugging.

There is no better and faster emulator.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you need a great, speed and efficient tool for Android Developer.

It's also a very good tool for a Virtual Android.

Doesn't work for production.

  • November 01, 2016
  • Review verified by G2

What do you dislike about the product?
Some versions of android available don't have gapps compatible. This is a problem when I want to install some applications or games using google play.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Genymotion is very important for testing Android apps from my computer with Linux Mint OS, especially because this Emulator is the only one that working on Linux in this moment.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would recommend that minimize increasingly using RAM memory.

Easy to get started android emulator

  • October 24, 2016
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I really love how quickly I can set up an android emulator and start testing my code. I can select from a myriad of devices to emulate, which mostly just changes a "skin" that wraps the phone and the resolution that the app(s) run in. Very quick to get started.
What do you dislike about the product?
I can't stand how limited the free version is for development. I can't save any kind of settings (like a location on the GPS between different sessions of testing). I considered buying a license to get unrestricted, but the price of the license was too high to justify an annual subscription. I would have preferred to purchase the software outright over subscribing at such an astronomical price. Also, it turns out that the emulator runs android in x86 mode only as opposed to emulating a mobile process, which leads to phantom bugs that don't show in the emulator but do show on device.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm able to test android software quickly and efficiently.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's quick and easy to get up and running since all you have to do is select which device you want to emulate, and initially it was faster to run apps in Genymotion because it ran Android in x86 mode as opposed to trying to emulate a mobile processor. However, the native android emulator provided with the android SDK has advanced leaps and bounds in the last year and a half and can perform emulated mobile processor at a much faster speed now, and is just as easy to get started with. There is no longer a need to use Genymotion, and it's far too expensive to get started with. They will only continue to increase their pricing because with the free (and better) Android SDK emulator being available for commercial use Genymotion will need to price gauge their existing customers to stay in business.
