Android app support is a key feature for Windows 11, but it won’t be ready in time for the operating system’s October 5 launch.
Microsoft snuck some key news into a corner of the Windows 11 release date announcement: Android app support, one of the most anticipated new Windows 11 features, won’t be available when the operating system launches on October 5. “We look forward to continuing our journey to bring Android apps to Windows 11 and the Microsoft Store through our collaboration with Amazon and Intel; this will start with a preview for Windows Insiders over the coming months,” wrote Aaron Woodman, Microsoft’s Windows marketing manager. If Android support will only start being tested with Windows Insiders in preview form in the „coming months,“ we’d be shocked to see it arrive in the official Windows 11 build before sometime in 2022.
