How to test Xamarin Forms for Android

I have programmed a small app for Android with Xamarin Forms. I only tested the app with my Honor 7X and it works fine. Is there any other way that I can test the app for free at least on other virtual devices. I am new to Xamarin so I need some tips.

If you use Visual studio, you do not need to install third-part android emulator for your test in the android part.

You can using Android SDKs and Tools to install API in your VS like following screenshot.

enter image description here

Then you need to Hardware acceleration for emulator performance (Hyper-V & HAXM), choose suitable Hardware acceleration.

In the end, install emulators that you needed in device manager. enter image description here

MS app center is not free, but it provide Free 30 day trial. After 30 days trial, Pay as your app grows
