When installation is completed, click "Finish".


When BlueStacks 2 starts up automatically, click "Android" at the top of the screen.

Click "Settings" when all the applications are displayed.


Click + Add acount.

Using Android's app in BlueStacks 2 is the same as installing and using the app on a new Android terminal different from the smartphone or tablet you are using. for that reason,Be careful when installing LINE on BlueStacks 2 and logging in as "existing account", since all information on LINE installed on the smartphone will be deleted. For applications with a one-to-one association between accounts such as LINE and terminals, it is recommended to use PC version software instead of BlueStacks 2.


As you can see from the top of the image below, BlueStacks 2 opens up a lot, and smartphones and tablet terminals will be able to multitask with fewer compatible models. Using Twitter and LINE applications that are also deployed on the PC platform has no major merit, but applications that are deployed only on smartphones and tablets can be used on PCs, and the possibility of multitasking is enhanced for convenience.


BlueStacks 2 has not only an emulator but also other functions. For example, click the folder icon on the left side of the screen ... ...
