MicroG works across a wide range of devices, including physical phones, test emulators, and virtual mobile infrastructure setups—perfect for developers, testers, and users customizing open-world anime gacha mod environments, custom ROM builds, or gaming-optimized Android systems. As a free, open-source solution under the Apache 2.0 license, it can be used, modified, and redistributed freely.
