Windows 11<\/a><\/strong> will let you download and use Android apps straight from the Microsoft Store, the company’s chief product officer, Panos Panay, has announced.<\/p>\n

The apps are available thanks Intel Bridge technology and a partnership with the Amazon App Store.<\/p>\n

Bringing the Android apps on Amazon’s app store to the Microsoft Store will vastly increase the number of applications available through the platform.<\/p>\n

Microsoft also announced that the store itself will see a complete revamp, having been rebuilt from the ground up specifically for speed.<\/p>\n

Android apps will operate like standard Windows desktop apps and will be able to take advantage of Windows 11’s new window snapping functionalities \u2014 Snap Layouts and Snap Groups.<\/p>\n

Similarly, you will also be able to pin them to the taskbar, or onto the Windows Start menu.<\/p>\n

Windows 11 will roll out as a free upgrade beginning in December and continuing into 2022.<\/p>\n

Microsoft announced that the first Insider Previews of Windows 11 will be made available from next week.<\/p>\n
