Essential Steps To Get An Android App On Windows PC Or Mac

Most people nowadays have a PC in their homes, and use a smartphone while out and about. This is fine, until you want to share files between the two. On the PC, widows in the most common operating program, while the smartphones (and tablets) run on something different. This causes a certain amount of juggling between the two, which can be frustrating. Here are two different ways to get an android app to run on your PC.

Cloud Connect:

Realizing that many people wanted to synchronize their smartphones and PCs, the company Bluestacks created technology to allow you to do this. Simply put, you can download the software called Cloud Connect onto your smartphone, and your PC. Go to bluestacks.com, and select download app player. Open the instructions, and follow them on screen – it is the same as installing any other software on your PC. Once you run the software, you will see which apps are running. To synchronize with your phone, download the app on the phone, and the PC will give you access all the apps on the screen from your phone.

YouWave

YouWave uses the emulation engine Oracle VM Virtual Box. It works in a similar way to cloud connect, but you have to pay to use it (you do get a 10 day free trial). Download YouWave on your smartphone and windows & mac, and it will allow you to run your apps on your windows and mac with a full screen, and virtually no problems at all. However, there are some teething problems with pixilation and zoom functions, which the suppliers say will be fixed in future updates.

Although running apps on your computer is in its infancy, and has some small issues, the signs are encouraging. As understanding increases, better results are expected soon. With a little time, and better application of technology, it won’t be long before linking the apps to your PC will be common, and simple to do.
