ShareMe App for PC Prerequisites

As you may already know, the ShareMe app (Mi Drop app) is only available for Android devices. However, there is a clever way to use it on a Windows PC. You can install an Android emulator such BlueStacks or Nox App Player on your computer to download and install the ShareMe app and start using it.

What is an Android Emulator?

An Android emulator is an application that lets you download and install Android applications on your Windows computer. Hundreds of Android emulators are available online, and one of the most popular is BlueStacks.

BlueStacks is popular because it provides the best Android experience on Windows PC. Although it focuses on games, you can install other Android applications just like you use Android on mobile devices.

BlueStacks System Requirements

Installing BlueStacks on your Windows computer should at least meet the minimum system requirements of BlueStacks. Here is the list BlueStack’s minimum system requirements:

Operating System: Windows 7 or above
Processor: AMD or Intel Processor
RAM (Memory): Your computer should have at least 4GB of RAM
Storage: At least 5GB of free Disk Space
Administrator: should be logged into the PC
Graphics Card: Updated Graphics Card drivers

Although you could install BlueStacks with the minimum system requirements, if you want to get the best gaming experience with the application, you should go for the recommended system requirements. To see the complete list of recommended system requirements, click here.

If your computer meets the required system specifications, let’s move on to installing the BlueStacks Android emulator on your computer.

Open your preferred internet browser and go to the official website of BlueStacks. Click “Download BlueStacks” on the homepage to download the APK file installer.

Once the download is complete, double-click on the file to open it and click “Install Now.”

Once BlueStacks has been installed, it will automatically launch and bring you to its homepage. You can now use it to install any Android application, including ShareMe for PC.

After successfully installing BlueStacks on your computer, you can now install ShareMe in BlueStacks. There are two ways you can perform to complete the installation, and you can follow the method where you need to sign in to your Google Play account or download the APK file installer directly and install it.

We will cover both methods, and it’s up to you which one you prefer. Let’s start with installing BlueStacks through the PlayStore.

First Method – Installing ShareMe via the Google Play Store

This method is similar to downloading other Android applications.

Open BlueStacks and double-click on the Google Play Store.

Once you have completed the Sign-in process, type in “ShareMe” in the search bar and click “Install.”

After the download is complete, double-click on the file, and it will automatically install the ShareMe app on BlueStacks.
