How to create a lightweight android emulator?


My PC lags if I open emulator from android studio ,with chrome and vscode in the background at same time. So I want to know is there any lightweight emulators for testing flutter apps overlaying in the vscode?


Solution

  • I use LDPlayer
    On my PC when Android Studio Emulator starts in around 6 minutes, LDPlayer starts under a minute
    I have installed LDPlayer 4 and It works without any lag.

    You just have to go to settings>Other Settings and set ADB debugging to Open Local Connection or see this answer for instructions.

    If you are on Windows 11 you can also use Windows Subsystem For Android. It does not have google play apis but other than that it would be the fastest.
