BlueStacks. Windows Android emulators have come a long way. I had a problem. I have been using Wyze WiFi security cameras for a while. They are cheap ($40), and give great color images. They need to be plugged into power; but, that means no batteries to run out. For a few dollars a month, they can be accessed via the cloud. But, there is no Windows version of the monitoring software, so I was restricted to small images on my Smartphones and tablets. Then, I remembered that BlueStacks had been offering an Android emulator for a while, and decided to check out the latest Beta version of the software. The results are stunning. Fast and capable, I now have access to all my security cams from my Windows computer, as well as my Android devices. Below is a live image I captured this morning of the camera monitoring my office parking lot. The software takes up a lot of real estate, at 2 Gigs; but, if you need to run Android apps on your computer, BlueStacks is open and free. And, don't go near my RV. I am watching you.
