On the other hand, there are certainly some Android games that aren’t available for Windows, and BlueStacks makes it possible to run them. And honestly, why would you want to run the Dolphin HD web browser or Amazon Kindle app on your PC when there are perfectly good web browsers and eBook apps for Windows. That takes a little getting used to, since the scroll wheel on your mouse is useless, and you have to tap-and-drag on the screen to scroll instead. Unless you have a touchscreen PC, you’ll have to navigate your Android apps using a keyboard and mouse. This lets you see the song that’s playing on Pandora, for instance. There’s a tiny notification bar at the top of the screen which you can pull down to view messages. The Pandora Radio app was able to stream music in the background, and Twitter ran in the background retrieving incoming messages. There are on-screen buttons for Back and Menu functions, and other buttons you can hit to view all your apps or to return to Windows. When you’re running Android apps, they’ll show up in full-screen mode, although some apps can be rotated or resized. The software emulates some of the basic functions of an Android device. That probably has more to do with my relatively old PC than with BlueStacks.
Most of the apps run reasonably well on a desktop computer - although Robo Defense feels a little sluggish.
