The debut of the official ISO signifies a significant milestone for the development of Windows 11 as the company approaches readiness to release the operating system later this year. However, there are still questions, mainly regarding whether the promised Android app support will be added before the operating system is finalized for release to users. The company has remained tight-lipped about this possibility since announcing it at the Windows 11 launch event.
Windows 11 Now Boasts Its First Official ISO File
Windows 11 builds are currently being released simultaneously for both the Dev and Beta channels, primarily focusing on cumulative updates rather than complete builds. Microsoft's current priority is preparing for the official release of Windows 11. Hence, there aren't many major features being added. Weekly builds aim to fix bugs and improve the OS's stability.

Ultimately, Dev channel builds will transition to permanent development status, adding features not tied to a specific version. Whether support for Android apps will be integrated into the operating system before its official launch remains uncertain. The plan to introduce this feature in this year's release may have changed.
With the first official Windows 11 ISO, the company encourages users to perform a clean OS installation. In June, Mytour discovered that Windows 11 Home users will need an Internet connection to set up their installation. Now is also the best time to switch from the Dev channel to the Beta channel if you want to continue receiving bug fixes and similar updates until Windows 11 is released.
