Box64Droid is a set of Python scripts that automate installing a preconfigured rootfs with Box64, Box86, Wine, DXVK, and D8VK on Android, enabling x86_64 (and x86) PC applications to run on ARM Android devices. It was a pioneering project for 64-bit PC emulation on Android but active development ended at the end of 2024.

Use cases

  • run x86_64 Windows applications on Android
  • run Wine on an Android phone or tablet
  • play PC games on Android via Box64 and DXVK
  • set up a Box64 chroot environment in Termux automatically
  • run 32-bit x86 apps on ARM Android with Box86

When to choose

  • you want a quick automated setup of Box64/Wine on Android without manual configuration
  • you are on an older Android setup and want the classic Box64Droid environment
  • you want to explore a historical pioneer of x86 emulation on Android

When to avoid

  • you want actively maintained components or up-to-date Box64/Wine versions
  • you prefer a modern GUI-based emulator or launcher for Android
  • you need documentation and guides, which are no longer provided
