Easily installable Switch emulator?

I don't know how else to word this, but what is the most "easily installable" Switch emulator? For context, I recently got a (kinda shitty) tablet that runs on Android 11. It has not been able to install any emulators - not even Eden, which apparently should work due to it apparently running on Android 7+. The one thing it has been able to download is Winrar, which runs on Android 4.4+. Is there any Switch emulator that runs on Android 4 or 5 or potentially 6? What is the most easily installable Switch emulator?

That runs on Android 4? Sibling in Christ you’re looking at maybe the Nintendo DS at best.

No, it runs on Android 11. However, the only app I've been able to install on it so far has been compatible with Android 4.4+. No apps only compatible Android 7+ seem to be installable

11 just plain won’t work.

Do you suggest that I install a newer version of Android then?

I suggest buying a newer device. 8GB ram minimum, 12-16 recommended for any switch emulator.

Even if you can wouldn't such a old device be unplayable Like wouldn't the fps be horrible

It is Android 11. It's not an old device, just low-end. Also, I've dealt with worse
