In short: you can start with a free personal-use Genymotion Desktop edition, but most cloud-based or pro features require payment (with a trial option available). If you can share your exact use case (personal learning, app testing, CI automation, or enterprise), we can point you to the most appropriate option and current pricing.
Would you like help choosing the right Genymotion plan for your specific use case (e.g., personal development vs. automated cloud testing), or a quick comparison of features across the free vs. paid tiers?
One quick question to tailor this for you: are you planning to run Genymotion on your local PC/Mac, or do you intend to use Genymotion in the cloud (SaaS) for automated testing? 🚀
