While
Windows 8.1 apps work on Windows 10 devices, they don’t always
work smoothly and can struggle when it comes to layout and scaling. As
more developers create apps that are built specifically
for Windows 10,
fans looking for the latest app will want to know which apps are
optimized for their device. A recent addition to the
Windows Store does
just that, as spotted by
Windows Central.
If you look at an app in the Windows Store that is specifically built
for Windows 10 you will now see a brief text underneath the share icon
that says “Built for Windows 10.” It’s a small addition to the store
that makes a noticeable difference. Running Windows 8.1 apps in Windows
10 can be awkward and create a mixed user interface so knowing an app is
built for Windows 10 is a draw.
Microsoft is hoping that more of these messages appear across their
store and have continued to push the universal app strategy as a way to
get more apps on phones, tablets, 2-1s, laptops, and
PCs.
