Now you can with BlueStacks App Player. The software allows you to run your favorite smartphone apps, like WhatsApp, Viber, and Candy Crush, at a fast speed and in full screen on your PC.<\/p>\n<p>One of the main selling points of BlueStacks is its appeal to parents, for when their child wants to take their phone to play games all day. With BlueStacks you can set up your child\u2019s favorite smartphone games on the computer \u2014 so that you can have control over your phone once more.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.psafe.com\/en\/blog\/want-text-pc-learn\/\" target=\"_blank\">Read More: Want to Text on Your PC? Learn How Here!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>How it Works<\/strong><br \/>\nThe first step is to download and install the <strong>BlueStacks App Player<\/strong> from the BlueStacks website onto your computer. Once you\u2019ve done that, download <strong>AppCast for BlueStacks<\/strong> (formerly known as BlueStacks Cloud Connect) from the Google Play store. The App Player and AppCast will essentially communicate to one another through the Cloud, and will allow you to download your smartphone apps onto your computer. BlueStacks works well with most apps \u2014 another one of its selling points. Try your favorites out to see which ones work best on your computer.<\/p>\n<p>The downside to this application is that it won\u2019t sync your current game data from your phone to your PC \u2014 you\u2019ll have to start over on your computer. (However, this issue may be resolved with future updates of the App Player.) Think of this positively: this is a good option if you want to further test your skill at a particular game, all from the comfort of playing on your computer.<\/p>\n<p>So, how does playing your favorite smartphone games on your PC actually work? You\u2019ll be able to use your keyboard to mimic some of the functions of playing the game on your phone, if you don\u2019t have a touch screen computer. Many apps are able to support a game controller through BlueStacks to make the gaming experience even better.<\/p>\n<p><strong>PSafe Total Windows<\/strong><br \/>\nThe only way to see if BlueStacks fits your needs is to download it and give it a trial run. But before you download it, make sure your computer is running smoothly so that you can get the most use out of the BlueStacks App Player. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.psafe.com\/en\/antivirus-acelerador-limpeza-windows\/total\/\" target=\"_blank\">PSafe Total Windows<\/a><\/strong> will ensure that your PC is running at an optimal speed \u2014 which will help your apps to run even faster. In addition, PSafe Total Windows will clean your disk space and remove unnecessary files, and protect your computer from malware and viruses.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You may have heard about BlueStacks App Player \u2014 But what exactly is it?
