AnVirt Emu

What AnVirt Emu is

AnVirt Emu is desktop software for running an Android environment on a Mac. Its runtime does not require Android Studio or the Android SDK. AnVirt says the environment is based on modified versions of Android Emulator and QEMU. The included system images are processor-specific: Apple Silicon Macs support apps built for arm64-v8a, while Intel Macs support apps built for x86_64. The original Android system has neither a store app nor a browser, so users cannot download or install apps from within that environment. The maker says users can obtain APK or XAPK files themselves instead. When creating a virtual machine, users can configure its memory size and data partition size. AnVirt Emu is a paid Mac app priced at $9.99, paid once and requires macOS 11.0 or later. It has no free plan, and Windows is not supported. The App Store listing says it supports English and Simplified Chinese. The developer indicates that the app collects no data, while Apple says it has not verified that privacy information.
