For some reason, I am unable to select a virtual device in Android studio. When I hover over the drop down menu to select a device, it says that this device is "not applicable" for the project that I am trying to run, but I have emmulated the project on this device before. There is also a little purple icon next to the device name that I am unsure of the meaning. Any idea of what the issue might be?

    Put left field in app option which has Android logo – MMG Apr 09 '20 at 01:27
  • Looks like you are not trying to run the app. Instead you are running a gradle file which cannot run in emulator. What you should see is a green robot instead of an elephant. http://prntscr.com/rvundn Finally, the little purple icon means that the emulator is not running. When you run it, it will turn into green! – Kwnstantinos Nikoloutsos Apr 09 '20 at 04:50
  • Thank you for the input. However, I am not able to select a module under the app (green robot) configuration. I am able to see the module when I open the module settings, but it does not show up in the module drop down menu in the app configuration. Any ideas why it isnt showing up? – reddsam Apr 11 '20 at 15:16

Looks like you are trying to run the project,instead of the app itself. Click on the Select Run/Debug Configuration, and select the APP option instead the project name.
