Microsoft 11806 Published by

Microsoft has posted a new Phone Insider app to the Windows Phone Store, the latest sign yet that the Windows Technical Preview will soon be expanded beyond PCs and tablets to smart phones.



From Supersite for Windows:
"The Phone Insider application provides registered Windows Insiders the ability to receive pre-release OS updates on their phone, directly from Microsoft," the app description notes.

This is different from the Preview for Developers app, which lets Windows Phone users upgrade to the latest Windows Phone version—currently Windows Phone 8.1 Update 1—before it's released by wireless carriers. The key phrase there is "Windows Insiders": that's the name Microsoft gives to people who participate in the Windows Technical Preview for Windows 10.
