In February 2022, Windows 11 finally brought Android apps for PC to Windows 11 in the United States. Android Apps are downloadable through the Amazon Appstore, which is currently in preview for updated Windows 11 devices.
First things first, you’ll need to check to see if your system meets the minimum system specifications to upgrade to Windows 11. If you’re not running Windows 11, go ahead and update. Below are the system requirements for running Android apps on PC through the Amazon Appstore.
- RAM: 8GB minimum, 16GB recommended
- Storage: Solid State Drive (SSD)
- Processor: Intel Core i3 8th Gen or above, AMD Ryzen 3000 or better, Qualcomm Snapdragon 8C or above
- Processor architecture: x64 or ARM64
- Virtual Machine Platform: Must be enabled
If you meet these requirements, then you’ll be able to run Android Apps on PC. If you’ve got all those boxes ticked, then the rest of the process is a piece of cake.
