I am creating an app in corona, but since I am using push notifications, I cant use the corona simulator What are some good Android Emulators to run apk files on mac? I tried Bluestack and andy, they don't allow me to run my custom apk files.

Try Genymotion Emulator. It is a fast third-party emulator that can be used instead of the default Android emulator. It is definitely faster than virtual devices from the AVD Manager. This is because Genymotion uses the x86 architecture to run, which is great for performance.

Genymotion has a sidebar that loads on the right side of a virtual device and the sidebar allows the ability to test the GPS, use a camera, change the virtual device’s battery stats, capture videos and much more.

You can do more with Genymotion Emulator. Just give it a try... See this answer also to know more about Genymotion's performance. Download Genymotion Emulator from here

Why not the official Android emulators?

Android Debug Bridge is very easy to use. You can run adb install to install your own apks to the emulator.

You can also send push notifications to the emulator.
