Microsoft had been focusing on Android platform as well and they have some great apps including the Outlook email app. The Arrow Launcher from Microsoft was available for quite some time in beta, but now the company has released the final version of this launcher and available for download for all phones.

The first time you use the launcher, you can select at least 5 apps which you use frequently (you can select even more). It will populate the home screen with the list of apps you have selected. You can customize this list as well. If you swipe to the left you can see the recent activities along with the recent apps launched. On the right side you have the recent calls. Swipe up from the home screen and you get access to a quick toggle where you have airplane mode, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, torch and screen rotation.

You also have the option to edit the home page and also add widgets. Widgets can be added to a separate page. These pages can be made hidden or visible. Clicking on the center of the home screen brings in the app drawer which is neatly arranged in alphabetical order. Another interesting option to set the wallpapers from Bing home page.

Here are some of the features:

  • Apps: No more wasting time finding the app you need – your apps are automatically arranged based on your usage
