Another Preview for developers app? Possibly for Windows 10?

[Usama Jawad96]

Look what I found in the store. Can't login btw,even though I'm part of the Windows Insider Program for PC. Might be for Microsoft employees because it requires a Microsoft domain account. It says more or the less the same thing which the Preview for Developers app stated regarding pre-release software.

Phone Insider | Windows Phone Apps+Games Store (United States)

No idea what it is. It was last updated a month ago, so was possibly hidden from the store until now. Tipped Windows Central, waiting for their response/article about what it is.

I just try this but i can't login. not sure if my P4D account works here.

So only Microsoft employees can login?

Interesting.
This may be how MS will roll out its windows 10 mobile preview software instead of preview for developers in the coming weeks.
OR its simply early testing builds for MS and some app devs, and will still use preview for developers for users like us.

I found it too. downloaded but till now not for users i suppose. well icon is same as of preview for developers.. thats make sense

 

[TheMiseryOfMe]

I was able to download it and install it but have no idea what I'm supposed to do with it...

Apparently, WMPU believe so and so do I as said in my Original Post.

 

[Mohamed Ashid]

Okay, played around with the app.
And, good news! I found a way to bypass the login.
But Bad news! It says "no updates available for this account"

 

[Legoboyii]

Okay well I read the article. Possibility to also receive carrier firmware through it would be absolutely divine. I hope this possibility is true.

 

[Usama Jawad96]

How did you bypass the login?
You have that Microsoft domain thingy?

No you are wrong read the sentence before that

Downloaded the AP and successfully logged in with my Microsoft account. After the process, it says something "You need to have Windows Technical Preview"...followed the link and says something "Sorry, not yet for Windows Phone"...

 

[Malaya Mohanty]

Dude:

1- As the person above me commented, this app is for the phone's pre-release software, not desktop.
2- I'm already part of the Windows Insider program but can't sign in from my login-ID.
3- It's for MS employees participating in testing only as the MS domain is used by them as can be seen from here- https://corp.sts.microsoft.com/adfs...&wrefresh=0&whr=http://corp.sts.microsoft.com

4-Also the 'easy to use app' you've highlighted in the description is for the PC, not for the phone.
5-Thankfully, Windows Central has published an article which has confirmed my thoughts.

New Microsoft Phone Insider app may be a prelude to a Windows 10 preview for phones | Windows Central

OK. Thanks for the updates. We'll see. As they say in the WC article: "take this speculation (and everyone else's) with a grain of salt."
