Welcome to our step-by-step guide on how to download and set up the Virtual Master app! Whether you’re looking to run multiple virtual environments or test applications in a secure environment, Virtual Master is the perfect tool for the job. Follow the instructions below to get started.
Step 1: Downloading the Necessary Apps
Before diving into Virtual Master, you’ll need to download two essential applications from the Google Play Store:
- Virtual Master: This is the primary app that will allow you to create and manage virtual environments on your device.
- ZArchiver: A file management tool that helps you easily manage compressed files within your virtual environment.
Once both apps are installed, you can move on to the next steps.
Step 2: Enabling Developer Options
To set up Virtual Master correctly, you’ll need to enable Developer Options on your Android device. This can be done as follows:
- Open your phone’s Settings by pulling down the notification bar and tapping the gear icon.
- Scroll down and tap on About Phone. If you don’t see it, check within System Settings.
- Inside About Phone, locate the Build Number option. If you can’t find it, try searching for it directly using the settings search bar.
- Tap on Build Number seven times to enable Developer Options. If prompted, enter your device password. You’ll see a message that says, “You are now a developer!”
With Developer Options enabled, you’re ready to configure Virtual Master.
Step 3: Setting Up Virtual Master
Now that Developer Options are enabled, follow these steps to set up Virtual Master:
- Open the Virtual Master app and accept their policies.
- Ensure your device is connected to a Wi-Fi network or use a mobile hotspot.
- Within Virtual Master, scroll down and tap the ‘Pair your Device’ button. This will take you directly to the Developer Options menu.
- Find and toggle on ‘Wireless Debugging.’ Then, select ‘Pair Device with Pairing Code.’ A six-digit pairing code will appear on the screen.
- Pull down the notification bar to enter the pairing code, then return to Virtual Master and tap on ‘Tap to Activate.’ If done correctly, you should see a confirmation message that activation was successful.
Step 4: Creating and Starting Your Virtual Machine
With Virtual Master activated, you can now create your virtual machine:
- Return to the main screen of Virtual Master and tap ‘Create VM.’
- By default, Virtual Master will download Android 7 for your virtual machine. However, if you prefer Android 9, you can download it and select it instead.
- Select your preferred screen resolution — Portrait or Landscape — and click ‘Next.’
- Enter a name for your virtual machine or leave it as default, then tap ‘Complete.’
- Finally, tap the ‘Start VM’ button. The virtual machine may take a minute or two to start for the first time.
Once your virtual machine is up and running, you can add the ZArchiver application to the VM environment from your phone.
