Portals

Control an Android device portal

Connect an Android emulator or attached device and interact with it from the canvas.

Updated 1 min read

An Android device portal shows an emulator or attached device as a canvas node. You can use its controls yourself or connect an agent to run device commands.

Open an Android device

  1. Choose New device portal and place it on the canvas.
  2. Select a listed Android device or runtime in the setup sheet.
  3. Connect an agent terminal if it needs to inspect or control the device.
  4. Use mao portal info, screenshot, or snapshot to inspect the screen. Commands such as click, swipe, type, button, launch, terminate, boot, and shutdown control the device.
LimitMAO needs Android SDK tools or an attached device to list a target. Device frames stream while the portal is painted; an off-screen or collapsed portal stops streaming.
