Missing Google Play Services #197

Closed vrsovin closed 1 year ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe

I think it is a usage problem, because a lot of useful apps requires Google Play Services to work, like Google Apps, bank apps, and others. I want WSA for useful things, not for random and questionable games and apps from Amazon Appstore.

Describe the solution you'd like

Implemente Google Play Services and Google Play Store as default or as an option for downloading WSA, as it happens on WSL with more than one option for distros to choose from.

Describe alternatives you've considered

I downloaded Aurora Store to test more useful apps, but the most of useful apps don't work without Play Services APIs. I tried some bank apps, some google apps and others, but they don't work without Play Services APIs. The only way to get it working is changing the kernel or using a custom unofficially WSA with preloaded Google Play Services, but it is not officially and I want to install WSA without doing nothing more than clicking on "Install" on MS Store.

Please specify the version of Windows Subsystem for Android

2209.40000.28.0

Most of delivery apps also require Google Play Service to use Google Maps. Also, there are many games that require google play services to play. There are too many apps require Google Play Service. image image

Agree with this issue, I think Microsoft need to find the solution. Contacting each apps developer is wasting time, it's surely painful if I need to contact them one by one whenever I want to use their apps.
