The latest version of
BlueStacks (2.7.320) has a more conventional tablet-like appearance than previous versions, and starts up in landscape mode with the ability to switch to portrait mode once an app is running. The promotion of game downloads is somewhat less intrusive than it previously was, though still present on the main screen. A major improvement for our purposes is that BlueStacks TV video streaming is no longer launched automatically.
As before, BlueStacks requires the user to log in to Google during the initial setup. This account is not logged out when BlueStacks is closed, so the best approach in the school environment is to create a dedicated Google account for use with BlueStacks, and leave that account logged into all instances of BlueStacks. Students would still use their individual Google accounts with App Inventor when building their apps.
