Pokki comes without any apps, except the Pokki apps store. We will need to launch Pokki apps store to add additional apps.

The Pokki Apps Store. About hundreds apps only, very little compare to Google Play or Apple apps store. The apps store has the same feel like Google Play when I access it from web browser.

Pros:
1. Pokki consume less memory compare to BlueStacks.

Cons:
2. Compare to BlueStacks, we cannot install apk into Pokki at the moment, apps are limited. However it is just matter of time that member of XDA will come out with some tutorial or guide. :-)

Pokki - installation guide of another Android emulator

Beside the Android SDK, BlueStack is another popular Android emulator that runs on Windows and Mac.
One of advantages of BlueStacks is you can install apk on BlueStacks. This is the post that I wrote which is received more than 12k views:

Recently another Android emulator come out, which is Pokki (which sounds like vulgar words in some dialects in South East Asia countries). Anyway, here is the installation guide of Pokki:

1. Go to Pokki's website to download the installer by click the "Download" button on top right. Don't worry, it is completely free:
http://www.pokki.com/

2. After the installer downloaded (which is very quick, following steps explain why), go to the folder that you keep it, double click to run it.

3. The setup file is actually less 1MB which will download 2nd setup file, that's why it is so small.

4. After download completed, now it is still not the real installation.

5. Third time of downloading, that's why step 4 is not the real installation.

6. Now, after download complete, now it is the real installation of Pokki.
