Anyone using Bluestacks and a solo Eufy Camera?

Does anyone have a Eufy solo camera (something like S340) working on a Bluestacks android emulator using a Windows 11 PC?

Since I haven’t been able to get Eufy cloud storage working to view my events I am trying to get it working on Bluestacks. After researching this I found that the newest editions of Eufy software app doesn’t seem to work on Bluestacks, you end up with a white blank page if you install the latest Eufy app on Bluestacks.

Someone pointed to using the Eufy version v4.6.0_1630. I tried that on Bluestacks and it does semi work, no blank page and you see all the menu’s but can not see live views or the events. I am thinking it is because the release date of this v4.6.0_1630 is 3/21/2023 prior to the Eufy S340 camera release. I have tried the next version up from that and other versions as well and all I get is the blank white page if anything is newer than the v4.6.0_1630.

Any suggestions are very welcome. Thanks.

I think someone here does use BlueStacks and has posted some things about it. You may want to search it on here. Maybe they’ll see your post and reply back.
If I recall I think you may need to use an older version of BlueStacks also?

A follow up to using an android emulator: I decided to try the MEmu emulator on my Windows 11 PC. I tried various versions of Eufy app on MEmu. I found using the apk version of Eufy V4.7.0_1747 gives me a very fast and very complete Eufy experience that mimics exactly the android phone app of Eufy. I see live views with clear images and see all the events clearly. It works very well.

Eufy app version 4.7.0_1747:

Thanks for posting your findings. I’m sure some folks here will appreciate the work you’ve done… I know it’s time consuming. Trial and error :+1:

A follow up on this. I tried using Bluestacks android emulator on more recent versions of Eufy app’s and never got them to work except for the older versions of Eufy. I sent Bluestacks an email to let them know. This is what I got in return:

“We would like to let you know that we tested this app and found that it is currently not working properly on BlueStacks. Our future release may have a fix for this. We request you to check our website (www.bluestacks.com) for all the latest releases, features, and fixes.”

Sounds good that they are at least aware of the issue and most likely will have a fix for it in future releases.

Hi, I tried installing Eufy app version 4.7.0_1747 on Memu emulator but I’m getting white screen after opening app, could you share your Memu System settings that you have perhaps changed?
Thanks!

I haven’t changed any setting for memu, I am using the default settings. I am using memu version: 9.1.3 If you keep getting the blank white screen, work backward with the Eufy versions. Try the next older version till you get it to work. I think I remember reading somewhere that someone was using Eufy version 4.5 where I was able to use 4.7, so you may have to try older versions. I hope that helps.
