Android Studio - Make simulator separate from studio itself

When I start my React Native project using command npx react-native run-android, I got a simulator window.

However, when I hit the launch button in Android Studio, the simulator appears in a small window inside Android Studio.

Is there anyway to start the simulator like in the first picture manually?

react-native android-studio android-emulator android

Since the new Update the Emulator always starts inside AS but you can get the old look back by doing this:

  1. Go to Preferences of Android Studio
  2. Search for emulator, or navigate to tools -> Emulator
  3. Uncheck the Launch in a tool window
