Update on Windows Subsystem for Android

Post date Mar 6, 2024

In a shocking revelation, Microsoft has announced the discontinuation of support for the Windows Subsystem for Android™️ (WSA). Consequently, from Wed, Mar 5, 2025, the Amazon Appstore on Windows and all associated applications and games reliant on WSA will no longer receive support.

Effective Mar 6, 2024, Amazon Appstore will no longer be available for download on Windows 11 devices via Microsoft Store. 😞

Using WSA for .NET MAUI Android Development

Windows Subsystem for Android - Advanced Settings - Developer Mode

Windows Subsystem for Android™️ (WSA) enables your Windows 11 device to run Android applications.

Even though optimization techniques such as Intel HAXM are available, there is a marginal performance tradeoff when using the Android Emulator.

The Subsystem has been designed to function as an integral OS component, providing superior performance compared to the Android Emulator.

From my perspective, the only drawback of using WSA is the lack of support for Google Play Services (as it works with Amazon Appstore). So any apps that rely on those services, WSA might not be the best fit. So continue to use the Android Emulator or the Physical device.
