Moderated Android Emulators


HH. Smith Jr.
 

Hi,

               

Are there any good Android emulators out there that are accessible with JAWS. I am running Windows10 and JAWS23.

Hi HH,
Look into VmWare.
I thought one could install Android into a VM.
And VmWare is accessible with Jaws.

Thanks, I’ll try it. As I do have VMware installed on my machine.

First:  What follows does not apply directly to the original question by HH Smith, Jr., because he is on Windows 10.

For those on Windows 11, don't forget that Windows Subsystem for Android has been introduced.  It's likely to be the most accessible of the Android emulations under Windows because, well, it's part of Windows and overseen by Microsoft.  There are actually now a number of formerly Android-only apps that are available via the Microsoft Store that run natively in Windows Subsystem for Android.

This is one of those features in Windows 11 that I doubt will ever be back-ported to Windows 10.  And it's another reason, if you want/need Android emulation, and have a computer that's compliant with Windows 11 requirements, to consider an in-place upgrade.

And having done a quick check, an archive search on the terms "android subsystem" then collapsing to a topic (as opposed to an individual message) list shows there's been a lot of conversation about the Windows Subsystem for Android on the Windows Access For Screen Readers Group already.

Brian,

 

The particular machine that I use for everyday use and kicking around, cannot upgrade to Windows11 due to its age. However, as an IT guy, your point is well taken and makes the most practical sense. I do possess a capable machine. It’s just not my favorite kick around machine. Doing it on Windows10 would just have to require more tinkering; of which, for me, is just another learning experience.

And I thank you, profusely, for reflecting this back to the group.

Very often, replies are made that are not directly applicable to the original poster, but sure are to the original topic at large.  Now that we're in the age of Windows 10 and 11 being is concurrent support, there will be many Windows 11 users for which the Windows Subsystem for Android will be just as big a godsend as the Windows Subsystem for Linux was when it came on the scene for Windows 10.

I understand entirely that you may need to tinker more to achieve the same ends under Windows 10, and there certainly has to be an Android Emulator out there that's accessible (I once used BlueStacks, but I can't speak in any way to accessibility on that one).  Best of luck in reaching your goal!
