Genymotion Desktop is an Android emulator for personal computers. The download page lists installers for Windows 11 (x86_64), macOS (Intel and Apple Silicon, for Tahoe 26 and Sequoia 15), and Linux (x86_64, for Ubuntu 24.04 LTS or higher, Debian stable 13 or higher, and Fedora Workstation 40 or higher). The current stable release shown is 3.11.0, and each installer is listed with a SHA256 checksum. The Windows installer includes VirtualBox by default, and a version without VirtualBox is also offered.
The page lists emulated device features such as GPS and GPS routes, camera and media injection, network settings, motion sensors, biometrics, simulated phone calls and SMS, gamepad support, and screen capture. The page includes a comparison of Free and Pro features, but the text does not clearly show which features are included in each edition, so availability should be checked on the download page. Requirements are demanding: an Internet connection is mandatory at first run, 16 GB or more of memory is listed, VT-x or AMD-V virtualization must be enabled, and each virtual device needs at least 1 GB of storage. The free personal-use edition is described as unsuitable for trials or proofs of concept, and it does not include assistance and has some features disabled. Pricing is not stated on the page.
