Microsoft Releases new update for Arrow launcher for Android

Microsoft just launched a new version of its Arrow Launcher for Android which it describes as its “biggest release yet.”
This solution replaces the stock Android launcher, or home screen, and is a key component of the Microsoft fan Android experience.





 Arrow Launcher was launched for the first time by Microsoft in late 2015 and has had series of updated ever since, adding a lot of improvement and features based on feedback. Arrow Launcher 2.0 arrived in July 2016 with Office 365 commercial compatibility and improved performance, and version 2.2, also a major release, sported much-improved customization. A 2.3 release from September provided further refinements.






New Utility screen.

 A new Utility screen allows you pin utility cards as individual pages, and customize them as you wish. This replaces the Google Now screen on Android phones, and you access it the same way, by swiping to the right.

Enhanced performance.

 According to Microsoft, Arrow Launcher is now 10 percent faster than before and uses 15 percent less battery, and 20 percent less memory.
So many will switch their Google Pixel XL over to Arrow Launcher and will be using this as their home screen experience again moving forward. That new Utility screen will be a big focus, of course.
