Are emulators safe?

No, it's a 2010 Pc, so pretty sure that it does not have Bluetooth.

Does that mean that's it is not possible to download meter results to my Pc?
I do have a 3 year old Samsung pad though. 

Using that is going to be a lot easier than faffing about with emulators and Bluetooth adaptors on a 12 year old PC. 
You might then be able to export the results from the agamatrix app if you have a particular need to use the results on the PC

Thanks for the info.
I'll have a look at using the pad.

If these are Android apps then it would be much better to run them on an Android native device rather than an emulator.

Bluestacks for example whilst generally safe as in it is from a reputable company still has issues in that even the latest version 5 either runs on Android 7 or at best if selected Android 9 (Pie). Both of these are out of support and no longer getting security updates, so are inherently vulnerable.

Thank you, I'm going to try your link on my Android table.

As long as you download from legit websites yes they are. I have personally used many different emulators and beside Bluestacks, Dolphin and Android Studio I have also used some PSX emulators such as Duckstation for example. My advice is to only download from the official or well known website and scan them before you run them. From my experience, all of the popular websites are safe. However, the problem in my case is that they run very slow on Windows 7. I use Windows 7 and Bluestacks for example it's very very slow.
