Run Android Apps on Windows 11: Everything

[iamrick9211]

Windows has offered different Android-related features over time, but availability has changed. Microsoft's Windows Subsystem for Android, which previously allowed supported Android applications to run on Windows 11, was discontinued, with support ending in March 2025. As a result, it should not be recommended as a new, fully supported installation method in 2026. Users who previously relied on it should review Microsoft's current documentation before depending on existing installations.
Windows still provides useful ways to connect with Android devices, although these features do not necessarily run every Android app directly on the PC. Microsoft's Phone Link application can connect compatible Android phones to Windows and provide access to features such as messages, photos, notifications, calls, and, on certain supported devices, app experiences.
