BlueStacks App Playerfor Mac

BlueStacks app player lets you emulate an Android device on your Mac desktop. This gives you the power to test new applications that you’re developing and play mobile games that require powerful hardware.

Emulate your phone

Play your favorite mobile games or run Android-specific tools directly from your Mac. Most applications are compatible.

Emulators are programs that let you launch an application or game on a system that would otherwise be incompatible with it. While game console emulators are more common, BlueStacks is an emulator for Android.

With this software, you can run Android apps on your mobile device, so that you can play games, use Instagram and other social media apps such as Snapchat, and much more. If you enjoy titles like Pokemon Go, this will not be the right fit. Unfortunately, the emulator doesn’t come with a setting that modifies your location. You’re safer with simpler titles.

To have you on your way, there are a few pre-installed applications: many are mainly average games though. To install other applications, you’ll need to download their APK files off the internet. This is due to limited support for Google Play.

The main appeal of playing games from a mobile device on your computer is that BlueStacks lets you access the full-screen size of your monitor. By expanding the view, you can see and interact more precisely with games or other applications currently running.

The biggest downside you’ll find while using BlueStacks is that not every application runs perfectly; support is nonetheless constantly improved for new applications on a daily basis.

Where can you run this program?

This emulator is available for Mac OS Sierra. It also runs on Windows 7 and later.

Is there a better alternative?

Yes. Although it's a great application and does its job well, Nox Player is another alternative option that offers many features as well. It has faster and smoother gameplay, and is compatible with controllers.

Our take

BlueStacks is an ideal application for playing mobile games and other applications on your computer. It’s easy-to-use, and doesn’t take up a lot of space.

Should you download it?

Yes. If you’re looking to use your phone directly on your computer, this app is more than enough for the job..
