Windows 11 is integrating Amazon's app store to allow Android applications to run natively in Windows. I'd love to see the mobile app on PCs, and targeting both Kindle and Windows computers simultaneously would be a win for a lot of people.

Because at GenCon (and similar huge conventions) you don't always have wifi and even a Verizon 4g signal isn't reliable deep in the heart of JW Mariott with a bajillion people around you sharing your bandwidth.

May I ask why you would prefer to use it as a Windows app instead of running it in a browser?

I'd like to also add to this.
Given some of the more recent updates to D&D Beyond functionality for character sheets and so on, some things simply do not function on the website. Such as automatically adding rolled hit dice to a character's current hit points after a short rest. The app however does this correctly.
Also though, my biggest reason for wanting to use the app as opposed to the website is because the app is capable of displaying all of the characters in the campaign on the same screen simultaneously, along with their hit points, armor class, move, and so on. This is all beyond helpful for a DM running a game, especially one with six players. Honestly, I have no clue why the website doesn't have this functionality. I would imagine anything available in the app would have by default been available on the website functionality first, but that doesn't seem to be the case unfortunately.

Microsoft is bringing Android apps to Windows 11 with Amazon’s Appstore - The Verge
I'd love to see an app on Amazon's store because installing Google services on Fire tablets can be super tetchy sometimes.

D&D Beyond StaffNo, we have it in the backlog but there's no ETA for it now.
