How can I run Genymotion locally?

how to run Genymotion Desktop locally on Linux

Launch Genymotion Desktop from your installed path, then sign in and create or start a virtual device. If you installed it in the default local folder, run ~/genymotion/genymotion, and if you installed it globally use /opt/genymotion; Linux uses the embedded QEMU/KVM setup so you do not need extra hypervisor software. Get Started with Genymotion Desktop

1. Install it on a supported local Linux machine, not in a VM, Docker, VPS, or server. 2. Make the installer executable and run it, for example:

   chmod +x genymotion-X.Y.Z-linux_x64.run
   ./genymotion-X.Y.Z-linux_x64.run -d PATH
   

3. Start it:

   ~/genymotion/genymotion
   

or, if installed globally:

   /opt/genymotion/genymotion
   

4. At first launch, log in with your Genymotion account. 5. Choose Personal use for the free local edition or I have a license for a paid license. 6. Create a new device from the app and start it.

If you want, I can walk you through the exact Linux install and first-device setup step by step.
