Issue
Can anyone with Genymotion installed please download and check if the Amazon Register app will run.
It gives an error about the device being modified/jailbroken and won't start in BlueStacks.
Please let me know if the app runs in Genymotion. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.amazon.localregister.android&hl=en
Anyone know any alternatives that can run the app?
Solution
Payment apps like Amazon Register and Android Pay will not run on rooted or modified devices for obvious security reasons. Both BlueStacks and Genymotion fall into this category.
Just to be sure, and since you asked, I tried to install Register into a Genymotion VM running the "Google Nexus 5 - 5.1.0 - API 22 - 1080x1920" image with Google Play Services installed. Installation is fine, but running it gives the same result you describe for BlueStacks. FWIW, my rooted HTC One (M7) running AICP 10 does the same thing as well.
To overcome this, you might try something like Xposed RootCloak. There are folks reporting that they got Register working using this, but I didn't in my brief experimentation.
UPDATE: I can personally attest to the fact that Amazon Register will run on a RootCloaked device (HTC mentioned above). When I get a chance, I will try the same in a Genymotion VM.
