For text input fields handled by an on-screen virtual keyboard input method (or IME), such as EditText , apps should behave as expected. (EditText class in the Android docs).

How to install Android apps on Windows 11

One of the main new features that Microsoft has introduced in its new Operating System is the long-awaited ability to run Android applications natively. This guide was written to help you easily implement this feature on your computer.

Activate the required Windows 11 components

To run Android applications on Windows 11, you first need to enable some additional system components. To do this, type Turn Windows features on or off in the search. Click on the first result that appears.

Enable or disable Windows features

In the pop-up window, locate the Virtual Machine Platform and Windows Hypervisor Platform entries. Check the boxes next to them.

Enable the virtual machine and Hyper-V

It may be necessary to restart the computer to apply the changes.

Join the Insider Program

At the time this article was written, the installation of Android apps on Windows 11 was reserved for users belonging to the Insider program. They are those who receive early versions of the Operating System to help Microsoft improve its software. It is expected that, over time, the company will remove this requirement and Android applications will be available to all users.

If by the time you read this guide it is still necessary, all you have to do is open the settings, click on the Windows Update section, and click on Windows Insider Program. Then, click on Get started to link your computer. Keep in mind that you need to sign up with your Microsoft account from the official Insider program page.

Access the Insider program

After logging in, select the Beta channel. Then, use Continue to skip to the next step.

Join the beta channel

Again, proceed with the Continue button.

Confirm joining the program

Use the Restart Now command to complete the process by restarting the computer.

Restart your PC

When it starts up again, it will already be part of the Insider program and will be able to receive the corresponding betas.

Upgrade to Windows 11

It is time to upgrade to Windows 11. Make sure that all updates are installed, as it is thanks to them that your computer will receive the early versions of the system.

Update Windows 11

Depending on the speed of your connection and the performance of your computer, this process may take a few minutes.

Download and install the Android subsystem for Windows 11

Now, we have everything ready to install the Windows 11 Android Subsystem. This is the environment where Android applications will run on your computer. To download the latest version, use the link on this page.

Language English
O.S. Windows
License free

You will get a file with the MSIXBUNDLE extension. Save it in the folder of your choice (just do not forget where you saved it). Next, open the search and type PowerShell. Click on Run as administrator to launch the console.

Open Power Shell

Now, it is time to install WSA (Windows Subsystem for Android) on your PC. Do it with the following command:

Add-AppxPackage -Path “C:UsersMalavidaDownloadsMicrosoftCorporationII.WindowsSubsystemForAndroid_.msixbundle”

Remember to change the file path to the path that corresponds to your case. Otherwise, the execution will not work. The command should look like the one you see in the following screenshot.

After these steps, WSA will be installed on your computer.

Install applications from the store

In the start menu, you already have a shortcut to the Windows Android subsystem. Click on it to see more options.

First, enable the developer options. You will need them later. Then, click on Files to “wake up” the subsystem and force it to install the Amazon App Store.

Open files to force the start

After the first run, the Amazon AppStore will be installed on your computer. It is available in the start menu, as if it were any other program.

Open Amazon’s app store

Before you can download applications, you must be logged in. At the moment, only US Amazon accounts are supported. It is possible to change the region of your profile from Amazon’s settings, although if you use it frequently for other services, such as Alexa, we do not recommend it.

Log in with a US account

When logged in, the Amazon store will appear on the screen. Use the Get button to download any application.

Download an application

Whenever you install an application from the store, it will be added to the start menu.

Install any APK on Windows 11

If you do not have an Amazon account set up with the North American region and you do not want to make that change in your profile, you have an alternative to use Android applications in Windows 11. We are talking about WSA Toolbox, a utility that you can download from Malavida safely and quickly.

Language English
O.S. Windows
License free

When you have its executable on your computer, double-click on it. Here you will see several options. For example, Install Aurora Store, installed as an alternative store to the Google Play Store that shares the same catalog. It is also possible to install applications directly with the APK downloaded from a trusted source, such as Malavida. Just click on Install APK File.

Install an APK with WSA Toolbox

In our case, we tried Spotify. We first downloaded its APK from Malavida and then opened it using the file explorer.

What is the result? Spotify has been successfully installed and pinned to the start menu.

APK installed correctly

Although this system will let you test a large number of applications in Windows 11, it has some limitations. Currently, the available catalog is limited to the one available in the Amazon store. And in case you do not have access to it, your only option is to get the APK of your favorite applications. Of course, all those that depend on Google services will not work because these, for the moment, are not officially implemented with the Android subsystem of Windows 11.

Söz konusu işlem için uygulayabileceğiniz ilk yöntem Android emülatörleridir. Emülatör programları, uygulamaların yanı sıra mobil oyunları da açar. Böylece büyük ekranda uygulama kullanabilir ve oyun oynayabilirsiniz. Peki, bu konuda en başarılı programlar neler?

1. Android Emülatörleri

  • BlueStacks
  • DuOS

BlueStacks

BlueStacks, ayarları ve uygulamaları başlatmayı kolaylaştıran özel tasarlanmış bir arabirime ve Windows’taki Android oyunlarının performansını artırmak için donanım hızlandırıcıları kullanan Layercake teknolojisine sahip. BlueStacks uygulamasını herhangi bir Windows programı gibi kolayca yükleyebiliyorsunuz. Ek olarak yapmanız gereken hiçbir işlem bulunmuyor.

BlueStacks ücretsiz olarak sunuluyor ancak, isteğe bağlı bir abonelik ile uygulama geliştiricilerinin Premium destek ve özel tekliflerini etkinleştirebilirsiniz.

Donanım Gereksinimleri

  • 2 GB RAM,
  • 4 GB disk alanı,
  • Direct X 9.0 ve üzeri

Android uygulamalarını Windows’ta çalıştırmanın en iyi yolu, bir Android emülatörü kullanmak olacaktır. Emülatörler temel olarak, bilgisayarınızın başka bir cihaz gibi çalışmasını sağlıyor diyebiliriz. Yani, Windows cihazınızın bir Android cihaz gibi görünmesini sağlıyorlar.

Donanımınıza bağlı olarak, bilgisayarınız Android uygulamalarını telefon veya tabletten daha iyi çalıştırabiliyor. Android cihaz donanımını bilgisayarınızla eşleştiren bu yazılımlar sayesinde, uygulamaların seslerini bilgisayarınızdan duyabilmeniz buna en güzel örnek olarak verilebilir.

BlueStacks

BlueStacks, windows için android oyunları PC’de oynamanızı sağlayan ücretsiz bir emülatör programıdır.

İndir

DuOS

BIOS ekranında adına sıkça rastladığımız American Megatrends Incorporated tarafından geliştirilen bir Android emülatörü olan DuOS, BlueStacks kadar özelleştirilebilir bir deneyim sunmuyor. Çoğu seçeneğe Android Ayarları menüsünden ulaşabilir, Play Store’da olmayan uygulamaları yüklemek için APK dosyalarını indirdikten sonra çift tıklamanız yeterli oluyor.

Ekran döndürme, yakınlaştırma, kaydırma gibi işlemler için klavye kısayolları sunan, mikrofon ve web kamerası gibi çevre birimlerini destekleyen DuOS uygulamasının sistem kaynaklarını tüketmemesi için RAM miktarını da ayarlayabiliyorsunuz.

Donanım Gereksinimleri

  • Intel x86 CPU
  • BIOS’ta desteklenen ve etkinleştirilen Donanım Sanallaştırma Teknolojisi
  • OpenGL 3.0
  • 2 GB RAM
  • 2 GB disk alanı

2. Android Runtime for Chrome

Google, 2014 yılında masaüstü ve dizüstü bilgisayarlara Android uygulamalarını yüklemek için bir uyumluluk katmanı ve sanal alan oluşturma teknolojisi olan Android Runtime for Chrome’u sunmuştu. Ne yazık ki, her Android uygulaması ile uyumlu olmayan ARC ile yüklediğiniz bazı uygulamaların düzgün çalışmayacağı gerçeğini bilmenizde fayda var.

Android emülatörleri ile uğraşmak istemiyorsanız Google Chrome’a yükleyeceğiniz ARC oldukça basit bir şekilde kurulabiliyor.

Google Chrome

Google Chrome sade, basit ve popüler bir internet tarayıcısıdır. Google Chrome web tarayıcısını yükleyin, internette hızlı ve güvenli şekilde gezinin.

3. Android ve Windows’u Birlikte Kullanmak

  • Remix OS
  • Android-x86
  • Android on Intel Platforms

Remix OS

Android tabanlı masaüstü tarzı bir işletim sistemi olan Remix OS, görsel açıdan Windows veya Chrome OS ile benzerlik gösterebiliyor. Klavye ve fareleri destekleyen, arka planda çalışan uygulamalar arasında geçiş yapmayı kolaylaştıran yeniden tasarlanmış bir görev çubuğu sunan Remix OS’ta şık bir ekran yakalama aracı da sunuluyor.

Tek dezavantajı Android’in en son sürümü olan Nugat ile kullanılamıyor olması ve her PC yapılandırmasını desteklemiyor olması. Herhangi bir uyumluluk listesi sağlamayan geliştiriciler, belirli bilgisayar modelleri, işlemcileri ve donanım yapılandırmaları hakkında raporlar için topluluk tarafından sürdürülen Google Dokümanını kontrol etmek gerekiyor.

Donanım gereksinimleri

  • FAT32 ve minimum 20 MB/s yazma hızını destekleyen 8 GB USB 3.0 flash sürücü

Remix OS

Remix OS, Windows PC’de Android deneyimi yaşatan tamamen ücretsiz bir işletim sistemi.

Android-x86

Android-x86, en yeni Android sürümünü Windows donanımına taşımayı amaçlayan bir açık kaynak projesi. Modern işletim sistemlerini taklit eden bir arayüzle gelen Remix OS’un aksine, Android’in kendine has görselliğine sadık kalan Android-x86 avantajları ve dezavantajlarıyla birlikte geliyor.

Bildirimleri denetlemek için bildirim çubuğunu tıklayıp sürüklemeniz gereken Android-x86’da uygulamalar bilgisayarınızın tüm ekranını kaplıyor. Yani Remix OS’ta olduğu gibi boyutlandırılabilir pencerelerde görüntüleyemiyorsunuz.

Bunların dışında Android-x86, Android’i kendi zevkinize göre kişiselleştirmenize izin veriyor. Üçüncü taraf temaları, ana ekranları ve daha fazlasını kolaylıkla yükleyebilmeniz mümkün.

Android on Intel Platforms

Windows cihazlardaki çiplerin çoğunu tasarlayan donanım şirketi olan Intel, kendi Android dağıtımını kullanıcılara sunuyor. Android on Intel Platforms, Android-x86 gibi Android’in Windows cihazlarda çalışacak şekilde uyarlanmış versiyonu diyebiliriz. Ayrıntılı belgelerle birlikte gelen Android on Intel Platforms, Android dağıtımını kurmayı oldukça kolay hale getiriyor diyebilirim.

Preview Program

The Windows Subsystem for Android™️ Preview Program allows users to receive early-preview builds of the Windows Subsystem for Android™ and Amazon Appstore on Windows. For more details, visit the Preview Program page.

Set up your development environment

To test your Android app in the Windows desktop environment, a bit of set up will be required.

Prerequisites

Windows Subsystem for Android is available on Windows 11. Your device must meet specific requirements: Device requirements.

Install the Amazon Appstore

The Microsoft Store will automatically install Windows Subsystem for Android silently in the background when either of the two following user actions are taken:

  1. Install the Amazon Appstore from the Microsoft Store. Selecting Get will begin the installation of the app.
  2. Install an Android app from the Microsoft Store for the first time, which will also install the Amazon Appstore.

The Amazon Appstore and the Windows Subsystem for Android Settings app will then appear in the Windows 11 Start menu and be available on search, offering a catalogue of Android apps.

The Amazon Appstore on Windows (a requirement for running Android apps on Windows 11) is available in select regions.

Windows Subsystem for Android™️ Settings app

To access the Windows Subsystem for Android Settings app, go to: Start > All Apps > Windows Subsystem for Android™️ Settings. Learn more about specific settings app features: Manage settings for mobile apps on Windows.

Input compatibility considerations for Windows devices

There are a few unique input behaviors to consider that will likely require updates to your Android app code, designed for handheld devices, to be compatible when running on a Windows desktop device via the Amazon Appstore.

Keyboard input

For text input fields handled by an on-screen virtual keyboard input method (or IME), such as EditText , apps should behave as expected. (EditText class in the Android docs).

For keystrokes that cannot be anticipated by the framework, apps will need to handle the behavior themselves. If this is already implemented in-app, no extra work is required.

As an example, some games may already support movement facilitated via keyboard, through w a s d keys, alongside touch input.

The following are keyboard inputs that developers should consider code updates for when building for Windows 11 devices:

  • Enter Key
  • Arrow-key and Tab-key Navigation
  • Change Selected Item Highlight Color
  • Ctrl-based Shortcuts

Learn more about how to optimize for these keyboard input scenarios on desktop devices by following the Android documentation:

  • Input compatibility guide in the Android docs
  • Handle keyboard input guide in the Android docs
  • Use touch gestures guide in the Android docs

Mouse input

Developers should consider updating code for the following mouse inputs when building for Windows devices:

  • Right Click
  • Tooltips / Hover Text
  • Hover Effects
  • Mouse Scroll Wheel Action
  • Drag and Drop

Mouse input, similar to keyboard input, must follow the official Android app guidelines. This means using the InputDevice class paired with the SOURCE_MOUSE constant. Learn more about how to optimize for these mouse input scenarios on desktop devices by following the Android documentation:

  • Input compatibility guide in the Android docs
  • InputDevice reference in the Android docs
  • SOURCE_MOUSE reference in the Android docs

Window management and resizing

Unlike traditional mobile form factors, Android apps running on Windows 11 can be freely resized, should be responsive in their resizing, and can be snapped using Windows actions/gestures.

Minimum screen requirement

Windows 11 enforces a minimum screen requirement of 720p resolution (1280×720) with a >9” screen.

Letter & pillar boxing

When the aspect ratio of a window size does not align between the device screen sizes that window is being displayed on, the result may be Letterboxing (the window is wider than it is high, or horizontally longer) or Pillarboxing (the window is more narrow than it is wide, or vertically longer). The result is bars being placed on the sides of the window in order to center it. These bars may be light- or dark-themed depending on the system settings selected. This will only occur as necessary when the Android app is snapped or maximized, allowing Android apps to take advantage of the rich snapping features in Windows and integrate into the windowing model.

Additional resizing considerations

The following should also be considered when updating an Android app to run on a Windows 11 device with respect to window management and resizing:

  • Initial launch size
  • Window dimensions
    • Content bounds
    • Free form resizing

    Learn more about how to optimize for window resizing scenarios on desktop devices by following the Window Management guide in the Android docs.

    Application Lifecycle Events

    Developing Android applications for a multi-window environment has an impact on the lifecycle events that you choose to utilize in your application. While overriding the onPause event may achieve the results you’d like on a phone or tablet, it’s typically the wrong event to use if you’re changing your app’s UX.

    See the Android documentation for a description of the lifecycle events. More often than not, you’ll want to use the onStop event and not the onPause or onUserLeaveHint events. In fact, many multi-window Android implementations do not deliver the onUserLeaveHint notification, and thus any business critical logic that might be in that event handler will not be called on these platforms, including Windows Subsystem for Android.

    Test and debug

    To test and debug your app on a Windows 11 device using the Windows Subsystem for Android the following set up steps are required.

    Enable developer mode in Windows Settings

    You must first enable developer mode in Windows Settings. There are three ways to enable developer mode:

    • Open the Windows Subsystem for Android Settings app. Once open, enable Developer Mode.
    • Search for “Developer Settings” in Windows search.
    • Navigate to Settings > Privacy and Security > For developers > Developer mode.

    Connect to the Windows Subsystem for Android for debugging

    To connect to the Windows Subsystem for Android VM for debugging:

    1. Launch an Android app that was installed using the Amazon Appstore.
    2. You can connect using adb connect with the following command (you must have adb installed):

    adb connect 127.0.0.1:58526 

    Connect to a test device

    To connect to a test device (with Windows Subsystem for Android installed) on the same network from Windows/Mac:

      On the test device (where Windows Subsystem for Android is installed) open a PowerShell window and identify the IP address of the test device by running the command:

    ipconfig 
    adb connect :58526 

    The can be found in the output of “ipconfig” from the test device. You can also deploy and debug apps from Android Studio.

    To use Android Debug Bridge (ADB) to connect your development workstation directly to your Android device so you can install packages and evaluate changes, see Android Debug Bridge in the Android Open Source Project docs.

    Debug your app

    While apps should be installed using the Amazon Appstore, debugging an Android app on a Windows device is possible using an APK (Android application package) and adb (Android Debug Bridge).

    To debug an APK using adb:

    1. Follow the steps to connect to the Windows Subsystem for Android VM above.
    2. Install the APK using the adb install command: adb install app-debug.apk Expected Output:

    Performing Streamed Install Success 

    Building Universal APKs

    Windows Subsystem for Android utilizes Intel Bridge Technology to emulate Arm applications on x86 based processors. Arm applications will run on Arm based processors natively. The emulation layer will induce a performance overhead – for optimal performance, submit your application for both the x86-64 and Arm64 architectures.

    VM lifecycle considerations

    Windows Subsystem for Android utilizes a virtual machine (VM) which provides compatibility with the AOSP framework and devices like keyboards, mice, touch, pen, etc.

    There are three possible states for the VM running apps with Windows Subsystem for Android:

    1. Running
    2. Lightweight Doze: Activated after no app activity for 3 minutes. Deactivated by user activity or an app notification.
    3. Not Running: Activated after no app activity for 7 minutes.

    Transitions between these states are triggered by user activity, such as launching or interaction with the Android app or an app notification. Android apps are paused and then stopped when their window is minimized.

    VM Properties

    The properties for the Windows Subsystem for Android VM are listed below. Hardcoding these values is not recommended as that could cause future incompatibilities.

    Property Value
    Build.MANUFACTURER Microsoft Corporation
    Build.MODEL Subsystem for Android(TM)
    Build.VERSION.SDK_INT 32
    Build.BOARD windows

    Security

    Windows Subsystem for Android performs per-file encryption that is software-based.

    Both Windows kernel-mode drivers and Windows applications running at medium integrity level (IL) can inspect arbitrary Android containers and Android app memory. There are no plans to add detection for cheats/macro/bot/suspicious behaviors detection in the short-term.

    Developers querying getSecurityLevel will get SECURITY_LEVEL_SW_SECURE_CRYPTO . Learn more about getSecurityLevel in the Android API Reference guide.

    Uninstalling Windows Subsystem for Android

    You can uninstall the Windows Subsystem for Android, but note that all associated apps will also be uninstalled.

    • Uninstalling the Amazon Appstore will uninstall the Windows Subsystem for Android and all other Android apps.
    • Uninstalling an Amazon Appstore app will only uninstall the app (same behavior as Windows apps).
    • Uninstalling the Windows Subsystem for Android will uninstall the Amazon Appstore and all Android apps.

    Troubleshooting issues

    If you encounter issues specific to the Amazon Appstore on Windows, try the following troubleshooting steps:

    1. Select Windows search from the Windows task bar.
    2. Search for “Amazon Appstore” and right-click on the Amazon Appstore icon.
    3. Select “App Settings” in the dropdown options.
    4. Select “Storage and Cache” and click both “Clear Storage” and “Clear cache”.
    5. Go back and select “Force Stop”.
    6. Close the Amazon Appstore Settings window.
    7. Relaunch the Amazon Appstore.

    For further troubleshooting steps relating to the Windows Subsystem for Android Settings app or to leave feedback using Feedback Hub, see Troubleshooting and FAQ for mobile apps on Windows.
