Genymotion Desktop 3.2.0 (Jan. 25, 2021)
Genymotion Desktop
If you are upgrading from 3.1.2, here is what’s new:
New features
- Genymotion Desktop now supports OpenGL ES 3, making it possible to test more advanced 3D code.
- The GPS widget now lets you load GPX files and replay them (licensed users only).
- It is now possible to disable clipboard sharing between virtual devices and the host operating system.
- If you have a touch screen, you can now send proper multitouch events, including gestures like pinch to zoom.
Changes
- The Player user interface has received a Material facelift, giving it a more modern appearance.
- The GPS widget map now uses OpenGL for rendering: maps are now crisper, zoom is smoother, and texts are always correctly oriented.
- The gmtool admin list, gmtool admin start and gmtool admin stop commands no longer require a license, making it possible to use gmtool to build integration with other tools like IDE.
- genyshell learned the -q command line option to avoid printing a banner, making it easier to integrate in scripts.
- We updated the bundled version of VirtualBox in the Windows installer to 6.1.14.
Fixes
- We made the Open GApps downloading code more robust.
- “gmtool admin stop” would sometimes freeze; this has been fixed.
- Some UI elements were blurry on HiDPI displays.
- When using an authenticated proxy, changing the proxy username no longer requires restarting Genymotion Desktop.
- On macOS, the Finder “Get Info” dialog now correctly displays Genymotion Desktop version.
For beta users
If you are upgrading from 3.2.0 beta 1, this version comes with the following changes:
- We fixed a regression in the GPS widget which made it impossible to type negative coordinates.
- The GPX replay feature now accepts GPX files without altitude or time information.
- On macOS, the overflow menu of the emulator toolbar was not showing keyboard shortcuts anymore. This has been fixed.
- In the device manager: we fixed a regression which caused keyboard shortcuts to do nothing when they were activated the first time.

Genymotion Desktop 3.1.2
October 8, 2020
Genymotion Desktop
This release fixes a bug in the GPS widget which caused the map to appear blank.
Genymotion Desktop 3.1.1
July 30, 2020
Genymotion Desktop
If you are upgrading from 3.1.1 beta 1, almost nothing has changed. If you are upgrading from 3.1.0, here’s what’s new:
- Windows: VirtualBox 6.1 support on Windows 10. Problems with VirtualBox 6.1 host-only interfaces on Windows have been fixed.
- Windows: virtual device screens appeared cropped in the top-left corner on high-dpi monitors on Windows. Now fixed. This correction was not in beta 1.
- Linux: new devices are now configured to use PulseAudio, improving sound support.
- Mac: mouse wheel on high-precision touchpads (Macbook touchpads, Magic Mouse) no longer causes super-fast and jittery scrolling.
- Genyshell: The “rotation setangle” Genyshell command behavior fixed. Now the display rotates whenever the accelerometer value changes, as expected. Also applies to the remote-control feature.
- Genyshell: The command-line option -q to avoid printing a banner is now supported in more contexts.
