Help+Tips app for Windows Phone 8.1 is here!



You’d think that after three years on the Windows Phone team, I’d know everything there is to know about my Windows Phone. Think again. It took me a couple of years, for instance, to figure out that you can tap space twice to add a period when you’re typing on the Word Flow keyboard.

Maybe you’re quicker on the uptake than I am. In any case, the new Help+Tips app for Windows Phone 8.1 is a great way to learn basics, pro tips, and random in-between stuff that you just never noticed before. You can get answers to frequently-asked questions, search for help articles, and see our collection of videos and animated tips.

This app has been around for a while in beta form, so you might have come across it before. This is the official release, available in 19 languages, with better performance and stability—especially on low memory phones.

Get it here.
