Microsoft has a strong overall interest in the consumer space. Not only is Spotify available in the Store you deride, Apple is even adding iTunes.Īlso, ever heard of Xbox? That's clearly 100% consumer focused. The only thing they discontinued was Groove on other devices, which makes sense when they're no longer offering a service. Yes, Microsoft discontinued their streaming music service, but not the Groove player, and they did that because it wasn't a viable business model with Spotify's success (itself available in the Microsoft Store). I also use TuneIn radio daily and sometimes Pandora and iHeartRadio. I use Groove everyday on both my phone (still a Windows Phone) and my PC. OnTheSurface, Windows Mobile failed, but is being replaced by Windows (w/o a special mobile version). See in Microsoft Store (opens in new tab) Newsflow was already a good app for keeping up to date with the latest news but the Fluent Design implimentation, including an excellent use of the reveal effect, pushes it to another level. There is a paid extension that's in preview that allows this so it seems like it will be available to everyone in a non-preview version eventually. You also can't sync across platforms such as iOS and Android.

The only real downside is that Newsflow can't work with Feedly or other RSS aggregator services you have to enter in all of your sources manually. Other little features such as search, categories, cross-device syncing and news notifications round out an impressive app that's easy to use.
