Genymotion Desktop 3.1.0 beta 3 (March 17, 2020)
- March 17, 2020
- Genymotion Desktop
This new beta fixes an annoying bug preventing dragging the screen right edge of the device after a rotation.
We nailed the last bug regarding macOS permissions to access the camera and the microphone. Virtual devices now ask for permissions in a timely fashion, no longer crash when permissions are not granted and detect when permissions are being granted while running.
We also improved startup responsiveness: when starting a device from the Device Manager window, its icon now switches to a spinner without any delay, as it should.
Apart from these, other minor fixes have been done like some icon adjustments or a new icon for the DMG on macOS.

New install wizard
- The installation of virtual devices has been moved to a separate wizard, accessible through the new floating action button sitting above the virtual device list.
- This brings a tidier, cleaner look and improves performances of the application.
Always visible navigation buttons
- Following up on the feedback we received from beta 1 users on the device window toolbar, we made the navigation buttons at the bottom of the toolbar (Back, Home, Overview and Menu) always visible, even if there is not enough room for all buttons.
Improved titles for the device window and its widgets
- The title of the device window is now more useful, giving you individual information (IP, device name) about the device first. We also removed the duplicated title from widgets, making them smaller and cleaner.
Others
- This new beta version also comes with a bunch of fixes and improvements, such as:
- A fix for a crash on macOS Catalina when using the camera
- Corrections in the Linux installer to make it work again on Fedora systems
- Improved VirtualBox error messages
Genymotion Desktop 3.1.0 beta 1 (February 11, 2020)
- February 6, 2020
- Genymotion Desktop
This version brings a large update to our rendering stack, improving performances with the latest versions of Android, especially on macOS. It also comes with a rewrite of our camera support and a simplified camera widget. This rewrite yields better performance and makes the camera work again on macOS Catalina.
The user interface has received lots of small touch-ups, with more important changes expected to land for 3.1.0:
- On Windows and Linux, the Device Manager got its menubar moved to the toolbar, saving vertical space.
- The Emulator has been updated as well: we reorganized the widgets in the toolbar, streamlined the layout of most widgets and refreshed the navigation icons.
- We also rethought the keyboard shortcuts to make them easier to use and remember. We carefully chose them to match their widget as much as possible and to avoid conflicts with the shortcuts of your operating system.
Genymotion Desktop 3.0.4 (December 16, 2019)
- December 16, 2019
- Genymotion Desktop
Drag’n’dropping images and videos on a device is now more convenient: when you drop a media file, the Android media library is automatically refreshed, ensuring your media files immediately appear in the gallery, without having to restart the device.
We added the 440 and 450 DPI buckets, making it possible for you to more closely match real-life devices like the Google Pixel 3.
We also improved network error reporting and logging, making it easier for you to understand when things go wrong and for our support team to diagnose tricky errors.
Finally, we made some last minute adjustments for Android 10. It should be available as a preview soon.
