Given that this depended on the Amazon App Store, and that Amazon seems to be moving away from Android dev in general, it seems clear that this is just a reaction.
It was a very good product, working very well for dev purposes.
But the Amazon app store… lol… I didn’t see any single app worthy of being downloaded. Literally don’t have any real app. And if accidentally has a good app, it was last updated in 2018
WSA is (was) way more performant and allows resizing to any kind of aspect ratio on the fly instead of creating a specific AVD for each use case. It is (was) awesome for quickly testing UI layouts…
This is such a shame. I play quite a few games through this that aren’t available on Windows, by enabling Google Play on the system. The Google Play Games thing that Microsoft / Google were working on doesn’t include anywhere near the number of apps I can get running via WSA. I really hope someone is able to bundle this up and release it as a standalone package once Microsoft drop support.
