Download an Android emulator on your Mac OS X to run Google Play apps on your computer. An Android emulator runs a virtual device on your computer; it is like having an Android phone on your Apple computer. You can now play all your favorite mobile games like Candy Crush, Clash of Clans, The Simpsons Tapped Out, and Family Guy The Quest for Stuff or run your favorite mobile apps like Snapchat, WhatsApp, and Viber on your Mac computer.
The Android emulator supports Mac OS X 10.6 and up (Snow Leopard, Lion, Mountain Lion, Mavericks, Yosemite) and will work for all Apple computers (Macbook Air, Pro, iMac, Mac Mini).

Step 1 → Download Android Studio and choose correct version for Mac M1 chip Step 2 → Install Android Studio and create emulator (if it’s created by default don’t use that one. I created manually) Now run your emualtor from AVD Manager because in my case it was not showing emulator option.
