Hi
I don't even bother with clicking on test on the menu bar.
You can get the app on an Android device in 2 main ways (actually 3 main ways - no one expects the Spanish Inquisition)
Our chief weapon is surprise...surprise and email ... and the file explorer ...
1. Email it to the device and click on the attachment and it will install
2. Double click on the device when you see it on your machine (usually the name of the device - as a media player). You will then see" phone storage", click that and you will see many folders. Alarms, Ringtones ,Download, DCIM etc. I copy the apk file into DCIM (where the camera pictures go ) then run the Android file explorer you will see the same "phone storage" click on that and go to DCIM folder where you can double click on the apk and install it.
3. Same as 2 but I have dual Usb Sticks with a Standard USB connector on 1 side and a micro/Samsung USB connector on the other (I also have a triple one that has the Lightening connector for Iphones -just brilliant!!). Anyway just go to the same DCIM folder as before and install after installing your memory stick.
4. Install using Aqueducts and a comfy pillow - 4 ways **
Even the email method is faster than loading the simulator.
There is a faster simulator available but it doesn't beat the real thing
