The "touch" setting app was unpublished by Microsoft about half a year ago, and I have no idea why. I've contacted Microsoft about this recently, and I hope someone will republish it soon, although I find it very unlikely at this point. I got an older version of the app after hard resetting my...

Can you take a screenshot of the app after it has opened?

I've been wondering about the Xbox Games app recently, what is the point of it now? All your games appear in the app list now, and you can make live folders with your games on the start screen. The Xbox Extras app for changing your avatar has also been pulled some weeks ago, and has not...

Today I noticed that the Xbox Extras/Avatar editor for WP8 has been deleted and replaced with Xbox LIVE Extras for WP7 (which is not possible to download for WP8). Some days ago I could still download Xbox Extras and update my avatar. Hopefully this means that the app will finally be updated...

According to Storage Sense, the Xbox Music app is taking up 81,05 MB, from which 39,65 MB is installation and 41,41 MB is data. I don't know what this data is, since I haven't bought any music from the store, and local music files aren't counted in this amount. Is anyone else having this problem?

In WP 8.1, you can still pin albums to the Kids Corner from the old Music Hub. However, don't pin albums if you want to remove them later, since there's no way to do that other than hard resetting. If you go to Kids Corner settings and uncheck the albums, they will get checked again.

In Windows Phone 8, there was a Help+Tips app in the menu. Does anyone know why it got removed in Windows Phone 8.1?
