The new update, version 2204.40000.15.0, has updated WSA to Android 12.1 aka Android 12L, which will further improve the whole experience. In addition to an update to Android 12.1, the Windows Subsystem for Android has also received a number of features and changes.
First of all, the Windows Subsystem for Android's Settings app has been overhauled. The redesign includes clearer settings groups, grouped navigation and a cleaner user experience. It also has a new diagnostic data viewer to analyze diagnostic data and configuration options to enable fixes for various apps.
The telemetry diagnostics setting will now be off by default. The setting provides telemetry for Android app usage and you can always enable it if this information is important to you. This update has also introduced improved networking to make it easier for apps to connect to devices that share the network connection like the Windows PC.
