BlueStacks is an emulator that allows you to play Android games on your PC or Mac rather than your phone. If your first thought after hearing that was, “Why on Earth would I need to do that?” then I ask you, good reader, to hold the horses and consider the possibilities.
There are actually many good reasons that you may want or need to emulate mobile games! You might want to play your games on a larger screen, have greater flexibility with mapping custom controls, or maybe you cracked your phone screen and have been cutting your thumbs to shreds every time you try to play GRID Autosport.
Your phone might even just be getting a little old and can’t handle the kind of performance needed to run newer games at their ideal specs anymore.
Whatever your reason may be for needing an emulator, BlueStacks has got you covered. Here’s a step-by-step guide on installing and using the BlueStacks Android emulator for PC and Mac devices.
How to Install BlueStacks
- Navigate to the BlueStacks 4 downloader.
- BlueStacks will auto-detect your PC or Mac’s specs and will recommend the right version for your device, but you can manually select your operating system and Android architecture if you want to.
- Click Download BlueStacks.
- Follow your Mac or PC’s installation wizard to install the software.
- Once BlueStacks has been installed, the software will auto-launch, and you’ll sign in to your Google Play account. You can skip this step if you don’t want to sign in immediately.
Congratulations, you’re now in BlueStacks!
