I am struggling with testing the app in the emulator
The app works fine on a physical device.
Is this a general issue, or has anyone had success testing defold apps in an android emulator?
Yes, I do it all the time with Android Studio. I start the device and simply drag and drop an apk (not an aab) onto it. This works most of the time, although sometimes an app installs on one device while another one refuses it.
These are my settings (on a mac):
Not recently for me but I remember I have tested some simple Defold apk on bluestack about two years ago and that worked well. although using emulators can help while developing but it’s good practice to test on real device as well and specially testing final build on different real android devices to make sure it works well on different devices and android versions.

What happens when you try to test in an emulator? Nothing? Crash? What does the adb log say?
