Genymotion Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich availability

Genymotion Desktop free edition only provides Android 5.0 to 15 images; all Android versions older than 4.4 have been removed 【Genymotion Desktop Release Notes】(https://docs.genymotion.com/changelog/desktop/3_x). Therefore Gingerbread (2.3) and Ice Cream Sandwich (4.0) are not available in the current desktop product.

You can still install Genymotion on Linux Mint and use the supported Android 5.0+ images:

1. Open a terminal and go to your Downloads folder: 

   cd ~/Downloads
2. Download the latest Linux x64 installer from the official page 【Genymotion Desktop download】(https://www.genymotion.com/product-desktop/download/). 3. Make the file executable: 
   chmod +x genymotion-*.run
4. Run the installer, choosing a folder (e.g., $HOME/genymotion): 
   ./genymotion-*.run -d $HOME/genymotion
5. (Optional) Install VirtualBox if you prefer it over the default QEMU hypervisor: 
   sudo apt update
   sudo apt install virtualbox
6. Launch Genymotion: 
   $HOME/genymotion/genymotion
7. Sign in with your Genymotion account, select Personal Use on first launch, and create a device using any of the available Android 5.0‑15 images.

If you specifically need Gingerbread or Ice Cream Sandwich, you would have to use Genymotion SaaS (cloud) where older images might still be offered, or consider another emulator.

Which Android‑based app or feature are you planning to experiment with on the newer images?
