    Look into Android Virtual device. I think you can test your code on a virtual device using buildozer.

Pyjnius works on the desktop, but the Android APIs are not available there so you can't test your Android API calls that way. For this reason, there's not much reason to install pyjnius on the desktop if you're targeting Android.

  • Thanks, but how then would one test their applications, would you have to compile into an apk and deploy into an Android mobile everytime or use an emulator?
