In this post I am going to tell you How you can Run an Android App On Your Browser.For this we will use a browser based Android emulator that enables developers and QA testers to run and debug their apps on various Android device configurations and the name of this Emulator is ManyMo which is basically a website.
Advantages of ManyMo
  • Fast
  • Lightweight
  • No need of additional software
  • Start Up time is less

Prerequisites

You have to Sign up and Activate your account on this website to use the service.

Note:-This service has some limitations like
  • Allows you to launch only 10 Emulations per month.
  • You can only launch one emulator at a time that means you can't open a new tab and launch another emulator while an emulator is already running.
But if you want to launch more emulations at a time then you'll have to subscribe for it, which obviously will cost you money.
So lets start with the procedure.

Steps To Follow

  1. Login to your account on ManyMo.The image shown below is the page you'll see after login.
    The above image shows various Android Device Configurations from which you can select any one and launch the Emulator.
    Next to the Launch button is a DropDown List from where you can Choose which Android Version you want in the Emulator after launch.
  2. Now to run or test an Application you have to upload the .apk file for this you will click on App Before Launching the Emulator as show in the image below
    Now the click on browse and go to the path where your .apk file(for example ES File Explorer) is and then click on OK.
    After uploading is done you will be automatically directed to the page as shown below
  3. Now Choose the Emulator Resolution(Like I chose 1280X800 ) and the Android Version of your choice from the Dropdown List and click on Launch.
  4. You will now see that the ES File Explorer has been installed automatically and running on the Android Emulator in the image shown below
Similarly you can run any .apk file on your Web browser.

Some Extra Features

In the upper right corner of the emulator there are three options:-
  1. Devlop:- In Develop option You will get a Myanmo Token by which you can make this web based emulator as your local emulator(on your computer) and then you can use this emulator to test your applications.
  2. Embed:- In Embed option you will get a HTML code which you can use to embed the Emulator in a HTML page.
  3. Share:- In Share option you will get a Link which you can send to your friends and share application in this Emulator.
