Microsoft, one of the great name among software market is now developing one after another apps for Android devices. Some times before, the company launched a smart lock screen and even made a key-board developed to be used with Excel. Now it is working with a new launcher application called as Arrow Launcher and it is currently in beta version.
The Arrow launcher is nothing but a copy of metro UI. The main screen contains three home screen include Recent apps in middle, Recent contacts in Left and Notes & Reminders in Right. In the bottom of the screen you’ll get some frequently used apps, recent dialed numbers and settings.
The launcher is easy to use and designed to put all your appropriate material in the home screen. It won’t be the best launcher for those who get a drag out of modifying their experience in every individual way, as you can hardly create any changes to it, but that is aspect of the attractiveness of this launcher.
It provides you very simple and clean interface to use. Just install it and forget about the setup. It is something like the Nokia’s Z launcher, which shows all current activities in the main screen.
The third page is what separates it from most Android launchers as it is the Notes & Reminders page. As its name indicates, you can add reminders and notes directly from here. Swipe the bottom dock to up and you can access the applications you use the most and using app shows the Settings, Feedback and Wallpaper pages.
In the Settings page, you can set daily Bing wallpaper as your launcher’s wallpaper. It has two pre-downloaded wallpapers and 12 wallpapers are available for download or you can set your own image.
For a test drive on it, you can download Arrow Launcher from here. The launcher lacks most customization options but it looks like a fairly brilliant take on Android operating system, though at this factor it’s clearly still a perform in improvement.
