Castle is a mobile application in the entertainment category. It allows you to watch movies, web series, TV shows, live sports and channels, and a lot more. The content on the app is endless. There is also content from a lot of different film industries which is available in multiple languages. There is also an offline viewing feature for downloaded content.
Is Castle Available for Mac?
Castle is not designed for the macOS version. The Castle app is designed for Android devices only. But Mac users can still access it using some workarounds.
You will need to install an Android Emulator to access android apps on Mac. Don’t worry it is free to use and there are some reputed emulators in the market which will help you do it.
Steps to Use Castle on Mac
Android Emulator word is self-explanatory but I will try to still give you a short description of it. They allow you to use an Android phone on your Mac. So you can use any android app on it.
Some of the popular Android emulators are Bluestacks and NoxPlayer. We usually recommend Bluestacks since it has been around for so many years and is trusted and secure.

Alternative Methods to Use Castle on Mac
Screen Mirroring from Android
If you are willing to not use an Emulator there are other options you can choose between. One of the options works only if you have an Android phone. You can download AirDroid on your Mac and mirror your Android phone’s screen on your Mac. Setting up mirroring is quite easy you just have to follow the onscreen instructions.
I didn’t recommend this method earlier because it requires 2 devices to be working at the same time first off plus it is not convenient. You won’t be using your android device until it is being used on the Mac.

Common Issues and Troubleshooting
While using the Castle app on an Emulator there will be a certain delay with all the processes. There can also be connectivity issues as well sometimes. You just need some patience with the lag and connectivity issues. Emulators tend to crash a lot as well. If your system’s RAM is less than 8 GB that could also be the reason for lag or slow performance.
Sometimes emulators have trouble working with certain antivirus programs so make sure you research about your antivirus being compatible with Bluestacks in advance.
