Create an Android Virtual Device (AVD) in Android Studio

Cover Image


Here I've written one of way to create a new AVD (Emulator) in Android Studio. You can use either this emulator where it's on a computer or your mobile phone to test your developed mobile applications.

But if you decided to use the emulator in your computer below requirements must. Otherwise, say good-bye to your computer probably. 
I mean, it'll able to break your computer. Because it also performs all the functionalities what in your hand device performs. If your phone has 4 GB RAM, then definitely the emulator also needs that much to work softly. 
  
Minimum Requirements for the AVD:
RAM: 2 GB - 4 GB (Recommended)
Disk Space: 400 MB (will change according to installed apps to the emulator)

  1. Configure
    • AVD Manager
