What's the easiest way to run Android apps on Linux?

Think there's also an official emulator from android studios but I could be wrong

Yes. Built into Android Studio. Has existed for at least five years. However I only ever used it with the apps I was developing and never even considered using it as a means to launch outside apps. That probably would have been painful.
