Update May 28th  2017  This method is no longer supported by me and doesn t work anymore as far as I know  Don t try it     How To Add Google Apps and ARM Support to Genymotion v2 0    Original Source   GUIDE  Genymotion   Installing ARM Translation and GApps - XDA-Developers  Note Feb 2nd   Contrary to previous reports  it s been discovered that Android 4 4 does in fact work with ARM translation  although it is buggy  Follow the steps the same as before  just make sure you download the 4 4 GApps  UPDATE-v1 1  I ve gotten more up-to-date builds of libhoudini and have updated the ZIP file  This fixes a lot of app crashes and hangs  Just flash the new one  and it should work   This guide is for getting back both ARM translation support  this is what causes the  quot INSTALL FAILED CPU ABI INCOMPATIBLE quot  errors  and Google Play apps in your Genymotion VM   Download the following ZIPs   ARM Translation Installer v1 1  Mirrors  If you have issues flashing ARM translation  try re-downloading from a mirror Download the correct GApps for your Android version  If you have issues flashing GApps  try re-downloading from a mirror  Google Apps for Android 6 0 Google Apps for Android 5 1 Google Apps for Android 5 0 Google Apps for Android 4 4  Download from CM11 Links   4 4 GApps might have bugs  Google Apps for Android 4 3  Mirrors  Google Apps for Android 4 2 Google Apps for Android 4 1     Next open your Genymotion VM and go to the home screen Now drag amp drop the Genymotion-ARM-Translation v1 1 zip onto the Genymotion VM window  It should say  quot File transfer in progress quot   Once it asks you to flash it  click  OK   Now reboot your VM using ADB  adb reboot  or an app like ROM Toolbox  If nescessary you can simply close the VM window  but I don t recommend it  Once you re on the home screen again drag amp drop the gapps- -signed zip  the name varies  onto your VM  and click  OK  when asked  Once it finishes  again reboot your VM and open the Google Play Store  Sign in using your Google account Once in the Store go to the  My Apps  menu and let everything update  it fixes a lot of issues   Also try updating Google Play Services directly  Now try searching for  Netflix  and  Google Drive  If both apps show up in the results and you re able to Download Install them  then congratulations  you now have ARM support and Google Play fully set up   I ve tested this on Genymotion v2 0 1-v2 1 using Android 4 3 and 4 4 images  Feel free to skip the GApps steps if you only want the ARM support  It ll work perfectly fine by itself   Old Zips  v1 0  Don t download these as they will not solve your issues  It is left for archival and experimental purposes

EDIT 2  After three months we can say  no more official Google Apps in Genymotion and CyanogenMod-like method is only way to get Google Apps  However  you can still use the previous project of the Genymotion team  AndroVM  download mirror      EDIT  Google apps will be removed from Genymotion in November  You can find more information on the Genymotion Google Plus page     Choose virtual device with Google Apps     Done

Alright  this is probably the easiest way to do it   First of all  you will have to install GAPPS  Next  open the virtual box and wait for the home screen to show up on Genymotion  Drag and drop the GAPPS folder that you had downloaded earlier on into Genymotion  You would get a prompt  Click OK  You would see a lot of errors  but just ignore them and wait for the successful prompt to come up  Click OK again and restart the virtual device  A Google account screen should show up  Open up the playstore app if it doesn t show up  Sign into your account  Again ignore the errors  The playstore should open now and should be fully functional
