Android emulation optimized for PC

When installing BlueStacks, you can choose the Android version you want to install, the screen resolution, the architecture to emulate, and much more. After that, you will see the home screen, similar to what you would find on an Android device such as a smartphone or tablet. You can also choose the graphics quality you want the emulation to have in each instance, offering the best possible experience for Android games and at a higher FPS than on your device or tablet.

Support for keyboard, mouse and controllers

BlueStacks offers native support for keyboards, mice and gamepads, with an editor that allows you to fully customize the controls for each game. In fact, some games are already mapped by default so that you can play them directly with the keyboard. In addition, you can create macros to optimize movements, carry out repetitive tasks, or farm resources. Finally, you have the Smart Controls mode, which automatically locks and releases the cursor for games like shooters.

Customize the emulator to your liking

The program's Multi-Instance functionality allows you to have multiple virtual environments, so you can have one instance for gaming and another for other Android tasks. You can clone them or synchronize actions between them, plus you can have them open at the same time to perform any kind of testing, or even play the same game with different characters.

Install all kinds of apps

In addition to accessing the Google Play Store and installing all kinds of apps, you can log in with your Google account to synchronize your account and games. You can also transfer files, videos and images between your PC and Android with ease. Simple shortcuts to the app store as well as the Chrome browser are installed by default. You can install any APK and XAPK files that you have on your PC by dragging them or double-clicking, as well as any you have downloaded from the emulator instance itself.

Record your games and take screenshots

To record gameplay or tutorials, BlueStacks incorporates a recorder function that only saves what you can see inside the emulator. You can also take screenshots natively, as well as adjust the resolution of your instance to get the desired resolution when recording.

Compatibility, security and continued support

BlueStacks supports over 95% of all titles on Android, and the team releases frequent updates with new features, support for the latest Android versions and bug fixes.

Download BlueStacks for Windows and enjoy your Android apps and games on PC with one of the most stable and complete emulators you can find.

Why can't I set control on the PC keyboard in Windows 11? It doesn't save when I check edit control, at the dpad.
