✅ YES — you can run Genymotion SaaS virtual devices 24x7.

Brief explanation:

  • The Unlimited plan and Premium (custom) plans offer unlimited runtime (so devices can run continuously). The Pay‑As‑You‑Go plan also allows continuous runs but charges by the minute.
  • Devices started from the web UI have a default timeout (30 minutes) unless changed in Administration settings; however, devices started with the gmsaas CLI are not subject to that web timeout and must be stopped with gmsaas as well — this is the recommended way to keep instances always on.
  • Pricing summary (from product page): Pay-As-You-Go ($0.05/min), Unlimited ($149/month per device, billed annually) and Premium (custom, unlimited runtime with dedicated options).

Would you want 24x7 devices for CI/testing, long-running automation, or for demos/live user sessions?
