Microsoft adds multiple Android app support to Your Phone app, users can now run up to three apps simultaneously
Microsoft has updated its Your Phone app with support to run multiple Android apps at the same time.
Before this, Windows 10 users were only able to run a single app at a time.
The new update for Your Phone is rolling out gradually and it might take some time to arrive on all Windows 10 devices.
After the latest update, Windows 10 users will now be able to run as many as three Android apps at a time.
It is important to mention that the app support is currently only available with compatible Samsung smartphones.
There’s no word from Microsoft when they are planning to enable this feature for non-Samsung smartphones.
Apart from this, Microsoft is also working on bringing native support for Android apps to Windows 10.
The company has been working on Project Latte that is expected to arrive with Windows 10 fall 2021 update.
Project Latte is said to bring native Android app support to Windows 10 and users will be able to sideload Android apps directly instead of streaming it through the smartphone.
For those unaware, Microsoft and Samsung partnered last year to bring Android app streaming support to Windows 10. The feature allows users to use an Android app on Windows 10 via Your Phone app.
The app allows users to run an app from a smartphone right on the Windows screen. Users can even pin those apps on the Windows start menu or taskbar for quicker access.
