Online Android emulator, no download

Android emulator online, in your browser.

Open a tab and you are looking at an Android phone: a real phone model running on our servers, not a desktop emulator you have to install. Install your APK, test it on Android 12 to 17, or hand it to a script.

01 · How it works

From a browser tab to a running phone.

1

Choose Android

Pick the version you need, Android 12 to 17, and the country the phone should connect from.

2

Open the screen

The phone appears in your browser in about a minute. Tap with the mouse, type with the keyboard, paste text from your clipboard.

3

Install and test

Upload an APK or pick an app from the catalog. Take screenshots, read logs, run adb commands over the relay.

02 · What you get

Why a cloud phone beats a browser emulator.

A real model, not a generic image

Samsung Galaxy, Pixel, Motorola and 150 more models with the real screen size, chip name and sensors your app will see.

Native speed

Android runs natively on ARM servers, not translated on a laptop CPU. It takes no RAM from your machine.

Any country

The phone connects from the country you choose, so store pages, prices and content look as they do to local users.

ADB and API

Connect adb from your terminal, or script everything over REST and the Python SDK. MCP for AI agents.

Many at once

Run a matrix of versions and models side by side; the dashboard shows every screen on one wall.

Fresh state on demand

Reset the phone between runs instead of wiping an emulator image.

Questions about running Android online

Is this an Android emulator?

Technically no: it is a cloud phone. Android runs natively on our servers with the profile of a real phone model, and you see its screen in the browser. For most purposes it does what people expect from an online Android emulator, with a real device profile and ADB on top.

Do I need to download anything?

No. A browser is enough. adb is optional, for developers who want a shell.

Can I run APKs?

Yes. Upload your APK in the dashboard or through the API, or install apps from the catalog.

Which Android versions are available?

Android 12 to 17. The version is chosen per phone, so you can run several versions next to each other.

Is there a free option?

The first 30 minutes are free with no card. After that $0.004 a minute, pay as you go, or a plan from $12 a month.
