I tried Waydroid on Arch and its amazing. It runs Android apps flawlessly. And with a touchscreen device, I feel like I have an Android tablet running inside my Linux machine.

But I still don’t know what to use it for…

What apps do you use with Waydroid? What use cases do you have for it?

    if you want netflix witjh DRM stuff like offline downloads waydroid can do it I think via the android app…
    You need to use a waydroid-utils script to install “widevine” for drm.
    This is a solution i’ve tested for someone else not me;
    I think it works, but it’s not been rigorouly road tested.

    Posssibly other DRM services will work if you can tolerate that type of thing.

    My guess is that the main use for it is android app development and testing.

      you might want to look into stremio or the servarr suite if youre having to jump through these hoops anyway
