How to Download and Install VChannel for PC
It should be evident by now that there is no developed VChannel app for Windows. That means we will be using an Android version of the app. And this also means that we will need an Android emulator like BlueStacks emulator to make this work. If you are okay with that, let’s start.
How-To:
- First and foremost, you will need two files to download. One is the BlueStacks installer that you can get from the download button below. The other is the VChannel APK from the download button above.
- The BlueStacks installer is quite huge for a 400MB file. So having a slow internet connection would take longer than usual. If you want, you can use a download booster to get 5 times faster download.
- When the download finishes, find the download folder where the BlueStacks installer is located.
- Double-click on the BlueStacks installer to start the installation.
- During the installation, you will be asked to choose a folder to install the emulator, or you can just use the default Program Files folder.
- After the installation is over, go to the main desktop and find the BlueStacks icon.
- Double-click on the icon to initiate the Android emulator.
- At first launch, you will be asked to log in your Google account. This is necessary if you want your device to synchronize with your Google account-related stuff such as contacts and saved games.
- When you finish the Google verification, you should see the BlueStack’s main user interface. Leave the emulator running for now.
- Go to the download folder and find the VChannel APK.
- Drag and drop the APK file to the BlueStacks main window to automatically install the app.
- After a few seconds, you should see the VChannel icon. You may now use that icon to launch the app and enjoy your favorite RSS feeds.
