Which Android emulator is best for social automation?

[social_newbie]

Hi there
Just checked, seems there are lots of Android emulators :
For example:
https://www.bluestacks.com/tw/index.htmlhttps://www.genymotion.com/
Are there anyone use one of these?

It depends on the type automation you want to perform. Bluestacks has some very basic macros that maybe could serve your purpose if you perform something basic and repetitive in the same SM. But on mobile things are very much different, and you cannot be scrapping HTML/JS code on apps to select the right actions. You need to go way further (unless you intend to do so over a browser).

Genymotion is great for dev purposes, but it's very easily detectable and they have very old stable Android API, but for mobile browser scrapping it would be fine. Also, since all devices are rooted by default, you can set some modules and cover your fingerprints.

But overall I don't find any emulator worth trying for automating for SM. I would rather choose real devices with tools like scrcpy

Thanks very much for the detailed explaination, very helpful for me


What I want to is to use a emulator to control my social automation, for example twitter auto post/comment etc
I know it's possible to control a android app similar like selenium on PC

Also the emulator must support proxy setup so I can run multi profile/instances

Have you tried Nox player?

All apps easily detect the usage of emulators nowadays.

I would use real devices only. Or bots based on iOS/iPhone app reverse engineering.

Thanks for the reply, so you mean automation with real andorid/iphone device?

Yes.

If you have the money to buy iPhones, use them, since bots based on iOS are pretty rare and therefore live longer before getting patched.

If not ... Android phones.

Yes, both Bluestacks and Genymotion are popular choices for running Android apps on desktop. Bluestacks is great for general use and gaming, while Genymotion is more developer-focused with advanced features for testing and customization. It depends on your needs, but both are solid options for emulating Android.
