Amazon Apps on PC

Zellfreid

Lurker
I own a music creation program called G-Stomper on Amazon App Store, but my phone can't handle the load and stutters often when trying to play the music. I'd like to harness my desktop to use it, but I can't find a way to do that. Is it possible? I have discovered a way to use Google Play apps on PC, but that does not help when I own the app on Amazon.

I have not been able to find this with any searches; thank you for you help!
 
I assume you're using Android-x86 in something like Oracle Virtual Box or VMware. You should be able to sideload the Amazon App Store APK straight into it, and from that download and install your purchased app. Whether or how well your music creation app works in this virtual environment is another matter. as Android-x86 is alpha/beta and rather experimental.

The other way is to upgrade your phone of course, to something more capable, or get a suitable tablet. What have you actually got and is it supposed to be able to run G-Stomper?

What I'm using is called BlueStacks to emulate Android. I'll look into those other programs, though.

My phone is an LG Volt. I got the app on one of Amazon's free sales, so I wasn't paying attention to how well it would work on my particular device at the time.
 
I've heard of Bluestacks. It might be able to install and run the Amazon Appstore, and from there download and install your purchased app.

Think the LG Volt is a bit baseline spec wise, and probably this music creation app is quite intensive if it's realtime, demanding on CPU power and amount of free RAM.
