About Vectras-VM-Android

Vectras VM is an open-source virtual machine app for Android, based on QEMU. It lets users create and manage virtual machines, import prepared ROM packages, and experiment with guest operating systems on a phone or tablet. This repository hosts the GitHub Community Version. The Play Store edition is a separate product with a different runtime and a simplified experience.

The source lists minimum requirements of Android 6.0 and 3GB of RAM, with recommended requirements of Android 8.1, 8GB of RAM, and a Snapdragon 855 CPU or better. Devices made in 2021 or later are described as working well. The app may run on unsupported devices, but stability and support are not guaranteed.
