Live updates at a glance
Vibrant and beautiful, the Start screen is the first thing you'll see. Each tile on the Start screen is connected to a person, app, website, playlist or whatever else is important to you. Tiles light up with the latest info, so you're instantly up to date. In one glance, you'll see that photo you were just tagged in, tomorrowâÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂs weather and messages from your friends.
It's all yours
In Windows, even the little things are all about you. Like the screen that appears when your computer is lockedâÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂit can be any picture you choose. And you'll see quick notifications on your lock screen before you sign in to your computer or open a single app.
With picture password, you can sign in by tracing a pattern on a picture of your choice instead of typing a password. Zigzag over your dogâÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂs face? Three taps on your childâÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂs nose? The choice is yours.
Work and play
Use your new tablet or laptop for entertainment, work, or both. Chat with a friend while scoping out a map, or play a game while getting stuff done. Go from spreadsheet to video in one swipe, or snap them side-by-side for easy multitasking.
