    It’s odd how poorly phrased the text on that first image is.

    Sign in with work, personal, or school account to access to devices and apps

    Surely it should be:

      Windows has had some form of that for a while as the “Link to Windows” app on both Android and iOS, this one seems to be focused on cloud Windows streaming

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    The app essentially takes the previous Windows 365 app and turns it into a central hub for streaming a copy of Windows from a remote PC, Azure Virtual Desktop, Windows 365, Microsoft Dev Box, and Microsoft’s Remote Desktop Services.

    Microsoft supports multiple monitors through its Windows App, custom display resolutions and scaling, and device redirection for peripherals like webcams, storage devices, and printers.

    The Windows App is also limited to Microsoft’s range of business accounts, but there are signs it will be available to consumers, too.

    The sign-in prompt on the Windows App on Windows (yes that’s a mouthful) suggests you can access the app using a personal Microsoft Account, but this functionality doesn’t work right now.

    We’ve already seen a number of web-powered features appear in Windows 11, with the main search interface dynamically updating from the web, a widgets system, and even Copilot integration.

    The Windows App might just set the stage for consumers to access cloud PCs and Windows apps on devices that don’t run Microsoft’s operating system.

    The only reason I haven’t gone full time to Ubuntu, which I just installed for the first time a few weeks ago, is I want to play Starfield and Fallout 4. I think I can get Fallout 4 to run, but from what I’ve read Starfield is not able to, yet. When I get done with Starfield, I think I’m done with Windows forever.
