ARChon, a runtime for Chrome that let you run Android apps in it, was discontinued and no longer functions.

If we missed any, let us know in the comments.

Most of the rest simply haven’t been updated or in active development in years and don’t really work well anymore with newer operating systems and hardware.

Bliss OS is the best alternative to both of them. It was one of our favorite options while it was available.

In any case, you can still find downloads for it, but we don’t recommend them. It declined in quality quite dramatically before the end, so we should’ve taken it off of our list sooner. The official website is down, and you can only find downloads from third-party sites. YouWave, a once-popular option, seems to have been discontinued.It has been quite some time since the site went down, so we assume development has ceased. However, the KoPlayer website appears to be down as of the time of this writing. KoPlayer was an outstanding Android emulator for gamers.However, it is no longer actively updated, so we removed it from the list. Droid4x used to be one of the best options, and its later builds are still available.If the developers ever clean up their act, we’ll put it back on the list. Andy OS used to be very good, so this one is disappointing. Even the official website throws security errors when accessed in a clean browser. Andy began using some seriously not great development tactics, including suspected crypto mining without user permission.You can still try it out, but you have to browse the official subreddit for download links. AMIDuOS closed its doors officially on March 7th, 2018.Leapdroid was purchased by Google and no longer operates.
