I used the Kindle app and had some games from the Amazon Marketplace. But mostly, we use WSA to sideload our Android apps for testing - much faster than deploying to an Android device. Even iPhone users could test the Android version of the app on their Windows PC's with WSA.

Very, very sad that's coming to an end. I figured we'd at least have it for the next few years. Another case of MS killing something before we really recouped the cost associated with adopting it in the first place.
