[dubor99]

Windows central is an article writing app for windows which has not been updated or tailored for windows 10 for phone yet, live tiles especially don't live upto standard, articles are not real time with it, pls push an update

Windows 10 mobile is also not officially out.

U know but apps should test their readiness for the O.S

They write about apps not updated and abandoned in store, and they haven't updated their app for ages, lol.
And guess what, WC app for Android is updated frequently and is a lot better than WP version.

Store says: last update 23 october 2014. So yeah, that's been been a while

Couldn't argue with u, since Android is more usable in the hands of many so yea they will surely update every time, it was perfect for windows 8, but not so with windows 10 insider preview

This is true, but I have read that the Android app and the WP version have different developers?

Even on 8.1 this app had some problems, it already feels stale and antiquated compared to 10 and their fancy new site

but they're both official.

I just found Daniel's tweet from last week: "@ThomasAdya yes, but not for awhile. Developer issues."

That's helpful at least one can breath a sigh of relief

But, they are for same site, and both official. Looks they've gone Microsoft's route, abandon their WP app, and update and make better Android app.

They should at least update website and app UI to match Windows 10, like WMPoweruser did, Vlc player and others.

I don't think that is the case. This is a tweet from Daniel about this: https://twitter.com/Daniel_Rubino/status/636551684479709184

That make be an explanation, and the communication is much appreciated, but it still doesn't change the end result.
The WC app has less forum features on Windows Phone, and by the looks of it less updates, etc.

Windows Central, like every other developer on the planet, knows which side of their bread is buttered. The update may come, but the masses need to be served first.

I don't think that actually in true in this case, there are more WP than android users of this site.

It's time to put this to rest.
Daniel Rubino has said that they have a developer lined up to update and maintain the app: From the Editor's Desk: Is the Windows Phone community imploding? | Windows Central
