Google has launched the Android Runtime for Chrome (which was initially for Chrome OS) on Windows, Mac and linux platform. tool which is deployed as a Google Chrome extension helps you run your app given the apps '.apk'.
Interestingly, ARC runs on Android 4.4 and not Android 5.0 Lollipop.
In addition to opening up ARC Welder to developers, ARC now includes Google Play Services, which are essential for running certain apps that use OAuth2, Google Cloud Messaging, Google+ sign-in and other services from the company.
However, ARC doesn’t yet include all Play Services, and so, some apps that require missing services like in-app purchasing will fail to run or crash. Hopefully Google will add these in the near future to enable more apps to run on various desktop platforms.
