Microsoft announced that the Windows App is coming to Android.
Resolved true The record shows it happened or was so.
Promise: Commitments to the person's or organisation's own future action, with something to deliver: was it delivered?
Said for an organisation they lead or work for; it counts on both records.
What would count as true or false
The claim is that Microsoft's Windows App (the client for Windows 365, Azure Virtual Desktop and Remote Desktop) would come to Android. No deadline is stated, so judge it as of the evaluation date. True: Microsoft released the Windows App for Android to the public through general availability or a public preview, e.g. on Google Play or a public Microsoft download or preview channel, with a dated Microsoft announcement or store listing. Release through a public preview counts as delivery. Mostly true: the Android app was released but under a slightly different name or form, such as the Remote Desktop Android app officially rebranded as Windows App. Mostly false: only partial progress, such as an app limited to private or invite-only testing, or a renewed announcement with no app available. False: positive evidence that no Android Windows App was released, such as a Microsoft statement cancelling or indefinitely delaying it, or a dated post-announcement account (documentation or a credible report) saying Windows App is not available on Android. Simply finding no record does not make the claim false; it leaves it unresolvable.

“This article details information about the latest updates for Windows App for Windows, macOS, iOS/iPadOS, Android/Chrome OS, and web browsers.”
Reasoning
The Google Play listing (E1) shows Windows App available for supported Android devices running Android 11 and above. Microsoft's dated blog post of 2025-04-02 (E2) says Windows App is generally available on Android. E3 shows the Android version was already in public preview in September 2024, and Microsoft's documentation (E4) covers Windows App for Android/Chrome OS. The criteria count either public preview or general availability as delivery, and no deadline was set.
