I have installed Windows subsystem for Android on my Samsung Galaxy Book Go 5G and then enabled vitualization, hyperX, vitual machine platform, ect. Apps work fine other than I can't get any bluetooth devices to pair to the subsystem although they do appear in my laptops bluetooth menu.
Please Please Please.... still waiting

Very strange that there is no bluetooth via Windows subsystem for Android. Please implement ASAP!
Hi Dylan,
Bluetooth devices aren't supported via Windows Subsystem for Android at this time. Android apps won't be able to discover your Bluetooth devices like they can on your physical Android device. This is a feature we're evaluating for a potential future release, but we don't have any timelines or plans or commitments to share.
Thanks!
Andrew - WSA PM Lead

Hello Andrew
It should be done. Without that feature, the use and interest of WSA become quite limited.
Regards, Fernando.

great to gotten such infomation, and so agree with Fernando Antunez , Bluetooth is so popular for Android games and Smart Home IoT, so want to see any plan from MSFT to let us align the future of WSA platform

just found out that BT LE Devices don't work with WSA.
this is a really showstopper for me. Most of my mobile business apps need BT LE Devices, per ex. BarcodeScanner.
Please add BT to WSA

Please visist this WSA is so close to being useful for so many people! If bluetooth was available it'd give Windows an entire new life and aspect of usefulness.
So excited about WSA that I actually upgraded to Windows 11 and actually purchased a new PC because my old laptop was powerful enough, but just wasn't on the accepted processors list. All for me to find out one simple thing which would make as WSA exceptional as I thought it would be.
I could have just stayed in Win 10 using an Emulator. This is so disappointing!

Hi all, Hi Andrew,
Is there any progress or plan for a WSA bluetooth feature release?
Many thanks
Any chance you can now?

Any more information on the progress of this feature. I too was looking to connect to devices such as my pool chlorinator so that I can do monitoring!

Welp, WSA is sort of useless without Bluetooth connectivity. ODB-II connectors for my car, My multimeter, o-scope...signal generator, etc... all the apps that I tried, needed Bluetooth for something. If the app only needs the internet, I can just go to the web page, or make the webpage into a web-app. Bluetooth is essential for WSA to have a purpose.

This is almost 3 years old. When will support be added? This is a huge miss in the WSA implementation. How much of mobile life is centered around Bluetooth connections?
No, it will not work...
The growing connectivity makes WSA useless and misleading without this feature.
Agreed, purchased a new laptop for nothing. Misleading announcement and extremely disappointing!
Totally agree. Not to implement such a key feature is incomprehensible.
Totally agree. Not to implement such a key feature is incomprehensible. I think it's incompetent and dishonesty. They sold me on a product and didn't deliver.

Please get bluetooth working, I myself would like this so I can test apps that use bluetooth that I create for android would make development more seamless
Daniel PriestPlease get bluetooth working, I myself would like this so I can test apps that use bluetooth that I create for android would make development more seamless
Could not agree more! I would love for this to actually work! It's a vital feature for Pen, controller and headsets. All of which are needed especially if the App is to be useful for anything.
I would not have even upgraded to Windows 11 had I known, the reason I upgraded was because I wanted access to Windows Subsystem for Android. The app is so close to being useful, without Bluetooth it just isn't!
I was so excited when I saw a reply to this thread I jumped right in! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE... Still Waiting!
Could pairing the device to an auxillary usb bluetooth antenna possibly work so theirs seperate hardware for the subsystem to run on?
