Back in 2020, one of the most important Windows 10 announcements was the support for Android apps. Which means you will be able to run Android apps on Windows 10 with your phone connected to the PC. Using the Your Phone app placed on your Android phone, users could sync their smartphones and Windows 10 PCs as well as run Android apps on their desktops. This can be a massive move since Microsoft's own Windows Phone platform has been dead for quite a while now. Although this feature was available only to Insiders, now Microsoft makes this public and if you have an eligible phone, you can run the Android app from Windows 10.
