I have the latest Android Studio Arctic Fox.
I have created a virtual device using

  • AVD Manager > Create Virtual Device
  • select Pixel 4
  • select API 25, ABI arm64-v8a
  • start the device from AVD play button

The device starts and begins booting but its gets stuck in the process:

Stuck device

I tried different device api combinations, same result.

What can I do to run an Android Emulator on an Apple computer with M1 chip?
