I am doubtful that Microsoft plans to deliver the entire Android Subsystem for Windows as a Store app. But the placeholder app does seem to be from Microsoft and has a 'Microsoft Confidential - For testing purposes' tag on it.Ī screenshot of the app in the Store features an Amazon AppStore logo and the tagline 'Android apps on your PC: Your favorite mobile apps now on Windows.' There was nothing there but a blank screen when I opened it. I downloaded the app from the Store onto my Windows 11 test machine. Microsoft sleuth The Walking Cat discovered a Windows Subsystem for Android app in the Store on September 2. However, Insider testers may get to try this out sooner rather than later, given the appearance of a placeholder Android Subsystem for Windows app in the Microsoft Store.

Company officials acknowledged this week that this feature wouldn't make it in time for the start of the mainstream rollout of Windows 11 on October 5. Microsoft is working to bring Android apps to Windows 11 via a deal with Amazon and a new Android Subsystem for Windows.

Try that again microsoft store
