Users of terminals with Windows Phone 7 operating system and Windows Phone 8 You may have noticed by now that appears on the Windows Phone Store live tile from time to time or Marketplace, the application download platform I am not revealing anything by saying that this number is related to theinstalled applications in the terminal, specifically with those that have an available updateBut what exactly does this mean? Should more attention be paid?
Updates are the way app developers and creatorshave to improve their tools, games, social networks, etc It is about improvements , new features, designs, changes and, in many cases, new security barriers that result directly in the better performance of the application, its development or, simply, in its change of appearance Therefore, the most reasonable thing to do is to keep an eye on them, trying to always install the updates that are available A good way to stay up-to-date, both in security as in feature with a smartphoneAnd how is it done?
The process of application update on the Windows Phone platformis very simple It helps that on the Windows Phone Store tile the comment appears number. Thus, with a single glance it is possible to know if there are updates and how many of them there is. Keep in mind that, on some occasions, this number usually takes several hours or even days to appear even though the update already available Clicking on this button leads directly to the applications market However, when there is an update, aalso appears advisory message at bottom of screen acting as shortcut
In this way, when clicking on it, a list of applications appears that have an available update This makes it much easier to know what they are Here all that remains is to select the applications and update them so that the process is carried out, automatically downloading and installing the news, improvements, corrections and other issues that they bring with them. It doesn't matter if it's games or tools, the process is the same for all of them . In addition, there is the option to update all of them automatically by simply pressing the button at the bottom of the screen, avoiding having to repeat the process one by one.
There are a couple of things to keep in mind before carrying out this process The first thing to do is make sure you are connected to a WiFi Internet network And, on many occasions (especially when it comes to games), these updates assume a multi-MB download packageSomething that can put an end to Internet rate data if done with several applications over a 3G network In addition, being connected to a good WiFi means speedup of the process by increasing the discharge speed
The other question is knowing what's new that an update brings with it. To do this, all you have to do is access the download page of the applications that have an updatepending, where most developers include a news diary or Changelog A good help to know if you really want to update and also avoid surprises with the news, improvements or changes that includes said update.
