Using Armada Fleets Designer on your Windows PC

First of all, remember that there is an online version of the app, available at https://www.dmborque.eu/swm

But you may want to run the Android version on a Windows PC (for example, if you want to use the app offline).


Well, this is something quite easy to do.
First you need a program that runs on windows and emulates an Android device.
I have tested BlueStacks (http://www.bluestacks.com) and it works really well, but there are other programs too.

- Go to its site and download the executable.
- Install BlueStacks on your PC.
- Now, you will be able to open any .apk file with BluStacks. This will install the Android application on your virtual Android device.
- You can start it. It will be very similar to running an Android device for the first time.

Now, download the Armada Fleets Designer apk (from the link in the Featured Post of this blog, for example) and install it on the BlueStacks "device" (double clicking on the file you just downloaded should do it).

Now start/go to BlueStacks.

You should have the Armada Fleets Designer application installed. Start it and enjoy!

The app will probably also work in other Android emulators, but I have not tested them.

If you try this, with BlueStacks or any other software, go ahead and share your experience with us!

P.S. I am in no way related to BlueStacks. Try this at your own risk. I will try to help, but I cannot be held responsible if anything goes wrong.
