How many devices can I run concurrently on the free Genymotion Desktop edition?
**How many devices can I run concurrently on the free Genymotion Desktop edition?**
- **No hard limit**: The free edition of Genymotion Desktop does not impose a strict cap on the number of virtual devices you can launch.
- **Practical recommendation**: We advise running **no more than one device at a time**. Running two or more devices simultaneously is possible, but you’ll likely encounter significant performance degradation, instability, and memory leaks.
- “Genymotion Desktop has not been designed to run devices in parallel – running more than two devices at the same time will likely result in major performance loss, instability, and memory leaks.”

**Bottom line:** You can start multiple virtual devices, but for the best experience on the free edition, keep it to one (or at most two) running simultaneously.
