Run Android in Windows like it was any other application

Windroy (WindowsAndroid) is a project that combines the functions of YouWave and Bluestacks, and attempts to emulate Android in Windows. Its aim is to be able to run all Android apps, and to be as easy to use as any other Windows application.

Android 4.0.3 is the version that currently runs in WindowsAndroid. It's quick to start, and offers you a basic Android experience, which has some drawbacks.

In WindowsAndroid, you won't find Google Play, the Android's app store. To run applications, you have to download the APK file, and put it the SocketeQ\windowsandroid_root\system\ folder.

WindowsAndroid also lacks audio at the moment, and the web browser is unstable. However, it is a new project, and these problems should be ironed out as it develops. It's also a neat way to discover the ins and outs of Android.

WindowsAndroid is still very young. It's a promising project to get Android running in Windows, but at the moment its far from perfect.

In Softonic we scan all the files hosted on our platform to assess and avoid any potential harm for your device. Our team performs checks each time a new file is uploaded and periodically reviews files to confirm or update their status. This comprehensive process allows us to set a status for any downloadable file as follows:

Clean

It’s extremely likely that this software program is clean.

What does this mean?

We have scanned the file and URLs associated with this software program in more than 50 of the world's leading antivirus services; no possible threat has been detected.

Warning

This software program is potentially malicious or may contain unwanted bundled software.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.

We’d like to highlight that from time to time, we may miss a potentially malicious software program. To continue promising you a malware-free catalog of programs and apps, our team has integrated a Report Software feature in every catalog page that loops your feedback back to us.
