Recent Updates (v2.8) - Just released (today) for UK & US users: You now have the option of a 'Wide' tile! Showing a pitch layout with scorers, bookings, scores, match stage during matches. The 'Today' page (as well as showing the usual live data across all leagues for the day) now lets you...

Thanks for starting this thread as I'm trying to find more information on this subject myself (both off the web and from Microsoft) on how it might be fixed for those affected. Four of my users (of my app) have noticed this issue too. It's not consistent across 7.8 users as I've got a lot of...

I write a lot of ASP.Net / HTML5 / etc. and (like you) find myself largely ignoring the designer. In terms of XAML, however, I find myself using the designer a lot more - not the visual studio one (which I sometimes find painful for XAML); but Expression Blend. Blend will make your life a lot...

Recent Updates (v2.7): During a match the tile now shows the live match events (scorers plus yellow and red cards) on the back of the tile. On the front it shows live scores, and the stage of the match. On non-match days the live tile now shows the points from the league table for your...

The football app Premier Leagues + got an update released at the weekend (version 2.7): The 'Today' page now shows the live match minute (e.g. 23') & match stage (e.g. Half-Time) so that you can quickly get an overview of where all the day's matches are up to (previously, even though it...

The football app Premier Leagues + has had its live tile updated :excited: During a match the tile now shows the live match events (scorers plus yellow and red cards) on the back of the tile. On the front it shows live scores, and the stage of the match. On non-match days the live tile now...

New version coming out next week! Lots of users emailed me asking for PL+ to add English League Two so it's now added :) This includes multiple news feeds for each of the League Two teams. UK & U.S. users will have access to an additional 5 leagues (15 in total) including the usual tile updates...

Touch screen makes a great difference for: Using the laptop in bed / on the sofa (much quicker tapping a web link than using the trackpad) Playing games (drag and drop etc. so much nicer on touch - and many of the new games are designed around it). Using a stylus if your laptop supports that -...

It's usually a month before I get payments (for purchases from the previous month) - however some are slower (e.g. where they have to go via credit card companies in other countries) which can take up to 3 months (although those are in the minority).

I’d recommend just trying to write a really simple app first – just something that has a bit of text, maybe some pictures, on screen and lets you tap some things. If you haven’t chosen between using Visual Basic or C# as the language to learn yet I would choose C# as it’s more popular, and also...

Why not send an update to one version with a message in it explaining the need to move to the other (if they want updates), and make it easy for them by having a button which launches marketplace at the other version. As it's a free app it's pretty painless for people to reinstall (and then...

Hi, Thanks a lot for the reply, and for offering to check out my app! My app actually has 8 different themes in it :) So if you want it to look more minimalist & metro then that's no problem! I found that some of my users like things more glossy, and a lot like it more metro, so I've given...

Thank you for looking at my football (soccer) app! I'd love you to give it a free trial so here are some great reasons: - Live Tile, Goal Alerts (toast), Multi-league, Live Scores & Events, Live Commentary, News feeds for over 450 teams, and too many other great features to mention here!!!! -...

Yep - amazon are already showing the logitech t620 (the one I'm tempted by) for ?68. You can the three Logitech offerings here: Logitech launches Windows 8-ready touchpad and mice I've got a fantastic mouse already though - but not multitouch - how do you find using the magic trackpad makes a...

Well done on making the video :) Really good. I'm loving Windows 8 too. You might want to re-post it on XDA's Windows 8 forum: Windows 8 General - xda-developers
