Do you have to pay for the time when a Genymotion session is paused?

High Confidence (66%)
Query: "pay for the time it's paused?" Answer:

Billing for Genymotion virtual devices depends on the service type:

  • Genymotion Cloud/SaaS: Charged $0.05 per minute while the device is active or paused (as it remains allocated).
  • Genymotion Device Image (cloud platforms): Charged $0.60 per hour per instance, regardless of active/paused state (ARM64 instances).
Supporting details:
  • Paused devices retain their allocated resources (memory, CPU, storage), so billing continues until the device is explicitly stopped or terminated.
  • For Genymotion Desktop (local installations), paused devices do not incur cloud charges but consume local system resources.
