## What it is
A GUI package manager and installer for Windows Subsystem for Android (WSA), built with Dart/Flutter. It provides double-click installation of .apk and .xapk files with app info display, plus shortcuts to Android settings for managing installed applications.

## Use cases
- install apk files on windows subsystem for android
- double-click xapk installer gui
- manage android apps installed in wsa
- uninstall or disable android apps in wsa
- upgrade or downgrade android packages on wsa
- grant or revoke android app permissions in wsa

## When to choose
- you use Windows Subsystem for Android and want a GUI installer instead of adb commands
- you need to install .apk or .xapk files by double-clicking on Windows 11
- you want a visual way to manage Android app permissions and uninstall apps in WSA

## When to avoid
- you are not running Windows Subsystem for Android
- you need Play Store installation - this tool does not provide it
- you need a package manager for real Android devices rather than WSA
- you need actively developed software - the last release was December 2023 and WSA itself has been deprecated by Microsoft
