But VS isn't used for writing Android apps. The vast majority of those are written in Java, which VS isn't used for.

You cannot write Android apps in Java in VS 2015, which is the vast majority of apps. You can do some NDK stuff in C/C++.

VS 2015 has Tools for Apache Cordova. That's what integrates with the emulator. You can build apps with Ionic and other PhoneGap/Cordova frameworks.
Of course, one can also use Xamarin. I doubt they'll try to compete with the tools for Java.
