BlueStacks recently released its successor and that is known as BlueStacks 2. This new Android emulator is really promising if you are looking for best and most reliable Android emulator ever. They have really improved this emulator and all the heavy games are working just fine in it. What’s more to it is that they have added lots of other features like sidebar tool and with that you can do many things like download APK, move files, capture a screenshot etc.
The most vital feature of BlueStacks 2 is multitasking. The UI of this new emulator is really neat and the new multitasking feature works like a boss. But still they have introduced lots of new things in this new emulator you will face bugs as well. We ourselves find some bugs in multitasking even though it didn’t affect the app or game we have used so far.
When you open any app, it should open in a new tab as it is a feature in multitasking but some apps don’t open in new tabs and this is sometimes really annoying. Screen size changer also don’t work pretty well sometimes but when it comes to gaming, it will work pretty smooth and better then old BlueStacks.
You can download Android apps and games in two ways. Download them via Google Play Store or just download APK format of any app and open it on your BlueStacks 2. But recently they have added another way to download Android app or game manually. They have an APK button in the left sidebar but the question is that why would you ever need that button? For some cases you would definitely want to use it.
If you are like us who uses different Android emulators, then you will find that button much reliable than ever. If you have added other Android emulator as a default for Android APKs then why bother changing the default settings every time? You can simply use that button to download Android APK in no time. We are going to guide you all the possible way to download Android APK on BlueStacks 2 below.
