Microsoft Launcher gets updated with bug fixes and new features

Microsoft officially rolled out a new update for its Launcher app for Android. The update introduces new features to users who have the beta program installed.

Previously known as Arrow, Launcher allows you to customize your Android device with wallpapers, icon packs, and theme colors. You can also customize your preferred apps and services at the top of the home screen, and link your Windows PC to your device in order to access specific content.

The changes brought by this update includes :

Get new daily backgrounds from Bing
Create custom set of backgrounds
The wallpapers can be scrollable — which means the background image moves back and forth as users scroll through their phones.
Badge notifications improvement
See upcoming events on lockscreen
Long-press app context menu simplified
“What’s New” experience built in

Microsoft’s Launcher surpassed 10 million downloads on the Google Play Store, so the app seems to be pretty popular among Android users. The app’s overall rating is very high as well with a score of 4.6 out of 5.0, which is quite an achievement considering that more than half a million people rated the Microsoft Launcher.

Other updates include bug fixes on the feedback and help page, along with improvements to performance and crash fixing. While there is not an exact release date for when the beta will be public, it should be in the near future.

You can grab the updated Microsoft Launcher v4.75 from the Play Store.
