Android apps on Windows 11! Brought to you by the Amazon Appstore. Which will be found inside the Microsoft App Store.

Android apps run as regular apps thanks to Amazon. Though this download process sounds a bit wonky, at least at first: pic.twitter.com/qELV0fhRMc

If you had told me in 2000 that in 2021 Microsoft would be positioning itself as the champion of creators and developers while Apple was being pilloried in Congress for being a monopolist... I would have probably flamed you on Slashdot?

Windows 11 is coming this holiday season and it looks sleek and smart.

Loads of new features, including the ability run ANDROID APPS via a huge Amazon partnership.

Most of Microsoft apps aren’t there either — you can get Outlook, Teams, and the Office Suite app, but not individual Word or Excel apps.

Obviously those are all available on Windows already, but the point is Amazon’s Appstore stinks!

Android apps on Windows 11…feels like a parallel of sorts to last year’s Android Duo phone (Microsoft still hasn’t made that Surface Neo PC yet)

Android apps on Windows 11. Makes sense, but I did not see this Amazon partnership coming.

It's basically a glorified Emulator. Running using the Amazon app store l. Depends if it even uses google play services. Would require an Intel machine to even utilize dokkan. Amd probly won't work. Dokkan wouldn't work only because of SafetyNet and couldn't send tokens https://t.co/SCgbLw3dkP

Windows 11 will also support Android apps for the first time, in partnership with Amazon's app store.
— Ina Fried (@inafried) June 24, 2021
Android app support is the first thing I've seen about Windows 11 that is actually notable enough to make it worthwhile giving it a whole new version number.

In case you were wodering if Nadella wanted these remarks to fly under the radar, he literally just tweeted the key part that caught my eye right after I hit publish:https://t.co/TQTvrE5VZB
— Dieter Bohn (@backlon) June 24, 2021
I honestly cannot overstate what a big deal it is that the Microsoft Store is allowing app developers to bring their own commerce engines (and taking no cut when they do). https://t.co/5525NoR9ei
— Aaron “fully vaxxed” Gustafson (@AaronGustafson) June 24, 2021
Microsoft pushing hard to promote Windows as the platform for creators, giving people "agency" over their own computers. That goes so far as to offer direct tipping payments to creators in the new widget panel. https://t.co/n5tGNiZx8l

The next version of the Windows app store will let developers keep 100% of their revenue if they use Stripe or other payment systems.
— Dare Obasanjo (@Carnage4Life) June 24, 2021
Taking 30% of app revenue simply for hosting app downloads is just going to look greedier and greedier over time.https://t.co/rNpaFgMT14
I don't get it. I survived like 30 years of downloading and running random shit I would find on the Internet to run on Windows. What the fuck do I need a "store" for? Basically me: https://t.co/yziBkhBGnf pic.twitter.com/Egb0dnyCuq
