    Windows Central aka "WC" a perfect acronym

    Just to give you a bit if insight/transparency: The forums integration relies on a protocol called XML-RPC, something which I was able to use a well developed third party library for in the current app, however I am going to need to write my own implementation for the new app, it's no small task!

    Windows Central app problem?

    Hey guys, I spotted this as well last night but by the time I got to looking into it the problem appears to have fixed itself. Something no doubt was going on with the server feed. I'll see if I can narrow it down any more

    WC app: Can't log on?

    Hey guys, something is up with the passport service of late, I'm trying to work with the guys to figure it out. In the meantime head to settings and delete your passport credentials if you see the option to, that should let you login cleanly

From there raise a ticket and explain the problem and error code you get and they will be able to fix it for you. Unfortunately I as the...

    Suggestion: Improve functionality of notifications

    Flerex, I agree that would be a great feature! Unfortunately Microsoft provide no way for the app to know it's notifications have been cleared from the action centre so it is simply impossible
