Genymotion Desktop 3.2.0 is released. Genymotion Desktop is an Android emulator for Windows, macOS and Linux. The article presents the most notable changes for Genymotion Desktop 3.2.0 release.
GPX replay
GPX stands for GPS Exchange Format.
GPX replay enables replaying real-life movements recorded in GPX files to simulate GPS coordinates.
Genymotion Desktop has previously simulated GPS coordinates.
Manually moving the virtual device around the world is tedious and usually does not result in realistic movements.
With Genymotion Desktop 3.2.0, you can replay real-life movements recorded in GPX files.
Recorded GPX traces can be long to replay.
The GPS widget provides an adjustable replay speed from 1x to 5x.
The GPS widget provides a slider to fast-forward or rewind to the portion of the trace you care about.
OpenGL ES 3.0
OpenGL ES 3.0 is now supported.
This support enables running more games and GPU-intensive applications.
Real multitouch support
If a touch screen is present, Genymotion Desktop can send proper multitouch events.
Multitouch gestures include pinch to zoom.
The feature enables drawing apps and other interactions.
Material facelift
The Player user interface has received a Material facelift.
The facelift gives the interface a more modern appearance.
OpenGL accelerated GPS map widget
The GPS widget map now uses OpenGL for rendering.
Maps are crisper, zoom is smoother, and texts are always correctly oriented.
Simplified tool integrations
Genymotion Desktop includes gmtool, a device management command-line tool.
Previously, all gmtool commands required a license to use, making gmtool unusable for tool integrations.
Desktop 3.2.0 lifts some restrictions on gmtool.
It becomes possible to list, start and stop virtual devices, even for users without a license.
This change makes integration into your favorite tool easier.
Genymotion Desktop plugins exist for Android Studio, Eclipse and VS Code.
