Microsoft has updated their Channel 9 app to the new Universal Windows Platform (UWP) app format and several new changes to the app’s design and features.

“As we continue to serve our mission to be a premier destination to learn and have transparent conversations that build insight and trust in technical communities, we are committed to improving the experience and reach users on every platform,” the official announcement reads. “Today, we are announcing a new Channel 9 UWP App, which provides improved search experience for non-English users who accept Language-Enabled, and features such as pin your favorite shows and keep up to date with Live Tiles, cast and watch videos on other devices on the network, and share the videos using Windows 8 Charm.”

Channel 9 is an official Microsoft service for hosting a variety of videos designed to assist developers in creating content for Windows 10 PCs and mobile devices, Xbox One consoles, and HoloLens. The app is free to use and all of the media is available to watch by anyone.

Radu Tyrsina has been a Windows fan ever since he got his first PC, a Pentium III (a monster at that time). For most of the kids of his age, the Internet was an amazing way to play and communicate with others, but he was deeply impressed by the flow of information and how easily you can find anything on the web. Prior to founding Windows Report, this particular curiosity about digital content enabled him to grow a number of sites that helped hundreds of millions reach faster the answer they're looking for.
