An updated version of Microsoft's 'Metro-Style' Lync unified-communications app, which takes advantage of some new Windows 8.1 features, is available for download.



From All About Microsoft:

When Microsoft rolled out Windows 8 and Office 2013, the company made two versions of its Lync unified communications app available: A regular desktop one, and a touch-centric, "Metro-Style"/Windows Store one. (The Metro-Style one was codenamed "Lync MX," similar to the way the Metro-Style OneNote was codenamed "OneNote MX.")

On June 25, Microsoft made available its second update of the Lync Metro-Style/Windows Store app. The updated version takes advantage of some of the new features Microsoft has built into Windows 8.1 (a k a, "Blue"), such as a resizable snap view. Microsoft is slated to release the public preview builds of the Intel- and ARM-based Windows 8.1 releases tomorrow, June 26, during its Build 2013 conference kick-off.
