3. Use AMIDuOS to Download Kik on PC

The installation and downloading process of AMIDuOS as it’s same as BlueStacks and Andy. Please note that AMIDuOS is only for Windows OS and only Windows users can use it and that too for only 30 days for free. Yes, AMIDuOS comes with a trial period of 30 days after which they will charge you for using it.

I have been using Bluestacks from very long time. But after using Andy, I can say that Andy is a good competitor and has easy access to features. Also, Andy doesn’t ask you much of the information while setting up for the first time as compared to Bluestacks. These are my thoughts and suggestions about the Emulator.

Will you try any one of these or do you know about an emulator better than the one’s I have mentioned? Please share your thoughts via comments.
