Android Terminal Emulator on AVD

Question

I know that a few terminal emulators are available via the google app store

Is there a way of installing these apps on an AVD rather than an actual device?

I don't currently have a smartphone so all my development is currently via an emulator

Answer 1

Find one that distributes their apps outside of the Play Store, such as an open source project. Those should be eligible to install on an emulator.
