Idiot Old Lady Question
 

I want to play Words With Friends 2 on my PC. Every path I follow wants to download it as an app to my phone. I just don't want that. Is there any way? I'm tired of looking and frustrated and missing my old buddy who used to do this kind of shit for me because I didn't want to. I know I'm being stupid but I just don't ...whatever. Can anyone help without judging and being snarky please, I'm already down enough. I'm sure there used to be a way I could use these apps on my computer, but I can't find it. I know they're free because they want access to the info on my phone, but....?

thanks :(

Looks like Words With Friends 1 has a PC version, but I didn't see one for 2. Maybe an android emulator, but I've never set one of those up.

I think that's what I used to use for such things, but I couldn't find it on here. Thanks, that was the conclusion I'd drawn, but apparently I've lost all confidence in myself. I really appreciate your input :) Now I need to stop crying about stupid things and get my act together.

Well that sucks, is there an android simulator for a windows PC?

Oh, they're called emulators not simulators. Here's 9 of them.

One is Blue Stacks.

Late last year Microsoft released an app (called Your Phone) that does what they call "mirroring," rather than emulating, Android. It's eventually supposed to work across a variety of Android apps; however, for now it only allows images and text messages to be Wi-Fi shared between phone and PC. I have it, it works; but, who knows when it will be further developed so WIN10 users won't have to install an aftermarket emulator for gaming.

thanks peeps. I'll look into those later in the week.
