    My G3, Memu for the secondary account when I've got nothing to do and feel like multitasking.

    I used to alternate between Bluestacks and my Samsung S5 but after the KnK event I've just stuck to my S5.

    I don't. I use my 'Droid. It's pretty reliable, except for the times it sometimes randomly crashes, which can happen a lot on a bad day.

    Used to play using Andy but lost my account when the software decided to bug out and got told by support to bugger off. Switched to MEmu due to friend recommendation but keeping a healthy sense of paranoia when it comes to bind codes.

    For people who do use MEmu, how much memory and how many cores do you allocate for it?

    I know that, unlike Bluestacks and Andy, MEmu requires 2 extra apps to be installed before F/GO becomes playable. IIRC, those are Google Play and Google Play Services. Am I correct, or am I remembering their names wrong?

    So are there any other apps that you need to install on MEmu before you can play F/GO (other than possibly QooApp)? Also, with the memory and core allocation that you provided, how frequently does MEmu crash? I mean, straight up crash, not stutter, freeze, or display the broken connection message. I'm guessing that it happens most frequently during EXP Ember quests and certain NPs, such as that of Jeanne Alter?

    Memu sometimes freeze but i never got any crash on it. It actually takes quite some resource though.

    And no you dont even need quoapp. Just download the apk from apkpure and you're fine

    The main reason that I'm considering moving away from Andy is because it will occasionally downloads apps without your command. I can delete those apps easily, but it does get tedious. MEmu does not have this problem, correct? Alternatively, how does one get Andy to stop that?

    I've gotten it to crash while EXP Ember quests when chaining Jeanne Alter's and Amakusa's Noble Phantasms. Doesn't happen in the story mode for whatever reason.
    New issue I ran into earlier today was that if I bring Cu Alter into a fight, the app simply freezes. Works fine with any other servants that I have so far.

    EDIT: After some prodding around it seems that for whatever reason MEmu had decided to drop my CPU cores to 1 instead of 4 so if you are running into weird freezing be sure to check up the settings.

    What it's the risk? It can be bad for the phone or something?

    * accidentally deleting cards that get unlocked every time
    * associating my real Google account with a sketchy emulator
    * more difficult to recover a lost account

    There are lots of reasons not to play on an emulator if I don't really need to.

    I used Bluestacks until the change to Unity 5, which forced me to play sparingly on my brother's tablet (NP 4 Shiki will haunt me forever).
    Then I tried a plethora of emulators, to no avail, but then someone here mentioned Bluestacks TV and it works wonderfully, no lags, no freezing and quite fast.
