Christian Post Report – Windows 10 Mobile, Microsoft’s new offering, features cross-platform use.
Early this year, rumors about Microsoft releasing a cross-platform operating system hints that users can now say goodbye to Windows Phone. Microsoft is starting to bring the new feature out as it gives insiders a sneak peek of what Windows 10 mobile can do.
Microsoft’s General Manager Gabriel Aul previously tweeted about the Windows Insiders and as of posting time, an update is now live and available for access through the Windows Insider app.
What can users expect from the new Windows 10?
Aside from the access despite allowing users to maximize their Windows experience whatever platform they may be using (PC or Mobile), Windows 10 also features:
• Interactive Notifications that allows users to instantly use their calendar, alarms, and messages via the pop up notification
• Streamlined App Switcher
• Accessibility to Quick Actions via Action Center
• Better Messaging and People Visuals
• Improved Speech-to-Text
• Customizable and full-sized background image for the start-up screen
• Photos app that will consolidate local photos and OneDrive images.
Microsoft’s Executive Vice President for Operating Systems group says, “Windows 10 represents the first step of a whole new generation of Windows, unlocking new experiences to give customers new ways to work, play and connect.” He adds, “This will be our most comprehensive operating system and the best release Microsoft has ever done for our business customers, and we look forward to working together with our broader Widows community to bring Windows 10 to life in the months ahead.”
At the press conference of Microsoft during the MWC 2015 last March, the company said that Windows 10 can run in all devices and updates will roll out in all the devices (including those running in Windows Phone 8.1) before the year ends.
With its Technical Preview ending in April 15, 2015, Microsoft is yet to announce on the final release date of Windows 10, but one thing’s for sure – it is free.
