Microsoft is working on a brand-new Store app for Windows 10 that will introduce a modern and fluid user interface, as well as bring changes to the policies that govern what kind of apps can be submitted to the store by developers, as reported by Windows Central,
The new store would have a redesign and will sport many developer-friendly features.
The new Store will continue to be a UWP app and will be updated on a monthly cadence with new features and improvements over time. It should also provide a more stable download and install experience for large apps and games.
The new store is expected to offer a more stable experience for downloading and installing large apps and games. The new store is said to be part of Microsoft’s big “Sun Valley” rework to Windows later this year.
“Microsoft wants to position the Store as an open platform that allows for the best apps on Windows to be easily discovered by users. Apps that were turned away in the past for using their own update or in-app purchasing systems will now be allowed. These changes should allow apps like Google Chrome or Adobe Creative Cloud to be discoverable in the Store, though time will tell if these developers actually come,” Windows Central said in its report.
Microsoft may bring its own apps, like Edge, Office and Teams, to the store as well.
