What's new and improved in Windows Subsystem for Android on Windows 11 (April 2023)?

  • Picture-in-picture mode supported

  • A new “Partially running” system setting added to WSA Settings app, which runs the subsystem with minimal resources but apps launch quicker than “As needed” mode
  • Linux kernel updated to 5.15.78
  • Improvements to platform reliability
  • Android 13 security updates
