Download an Android emulator on your Mac OS X to run Google Play apps on your computer. An Android emulator runs a virtual device on your computer; it is like having an Android phone on your Apple computer. You can now play all your favorite mobile games like Candy Crush, Clash of Clans, The Simpsons Tapped Out, and Family Guy The Quest for Stuff or run your favorite mobile apps like Snapchat, WhatsApp, and Viber on your Mac computer.

.in Mac App Store here’s how to run the iOS app on M1 Mac, but it can be downloaded and used with the help of a popular Emulator called BlueStacks. The emulator runs on the new Mac Mini, Macbook Pro and Macbook Air with Apple's M1 chip. The application does not work on Apple products with Intel SoCs. The emulator can be used to run ARM64-based Android apps on a Mac. The native hardware virtualization of the M1 SoCs is used via Qemu. This is the same tool that is also used to virtualize.

The Android emulator supports Mac OS X 10.6 and up (Snow Leopard, Lion, Mountain Lion, Mavericks, Yosemite) and will work for all Apple computers (Macbook Air, Pro, iMac, Mac Mini).
