How do I convert a DMG file into an APK file?

Hello, Chentong Lu

Welcome to Microsoft Community.

Creating games on Roblox is a fun and creative process, and it’s great to hear that you’re interested in it! However, it’s important to clarify that a .DMG file, which is an Apple Disk Image, cannot be converted into an .APK file directly, which is an Android application package. These file types are fundamentally different and serve distinct purposes within their respective operating systems.

If you’re looking to develop games for Roblox on mobile, you would need to use the official Roblox development tools designed for that purpose. Roblox Studio, the development environment for creating Roblox games, is currently only available on PC and Mac computers. It’s not possible to develop Roblox games directly on a mobile device or to convert desktop software (like those in .DMG format) to a mobile app format (.APK).

If you’re on a mobile device, you might be able to use Roblox Studio through cloud platforms like Google Cloud, but it might not be as smooth as using a computer.

For accurate and reliable information on developing games for Roblox, I recommend visiting the Roblox Creator Hub, which provides resources and guidance for game development on the Roblox platform.

[quote user="Viral Cyrix"]How did you manage to get it working on kindle fire I cant find the app[/quote]Someone on the UK boards posted a link to the .apk file, the Android installer file, which had the version check removed.

Turn on the option to allow the install of files other than those downloaded from the official stores, drop the .apk onto your Kindle and install the file. I use another app, ES File Explorer, so mange the files and folders on my Kindle Fire.

Of course the file has been 'modded' for want of a better word to remove the device check. So you may want to test it out with a second account.

Hello Hieu! I'm Kris and I'd be happy to help you with your question.

There is no way to do it without an emulator as APK files hold Android apps as self-installable files already. It would mean changing the code completely to make a PC version.

Hi,

You can't. APK files are for Android devices only. You can not install these on an Xbox One console.

Having just checked the website myself, all the games are apk files, which are android only, so they will not work on a Windows phone.
