Microsoft pushes UI refresh and new features to OneDrive and Bing Android apps

Victor, 17 April 2021

Microsoft seems to be giving some extra care and attention to some of its Android apps. Both the OneDrive and Bing apps have recently received updates. The major highlight in OneDrive is Chromecast support. It works in the usual way - just open up a photo or a video from your OneDrive and a Chromecast icon should appear on to titlebar if there are any Chromecast receivers in your vicinity. There are some other smaller tweaks in OneDrive here and there too. The Home tab, for instance, now prominently features the Recent view with the last files you interacted with, so you can quickly pick up where you left off.

The Bing Android app has basically received a visual overhaul. You can check it out in the screenshots. Many of the features are now easier to access from the Home page and there are also some new additions to the list.

UI refresh just for the sake of UI refresh is completely dumb, usually removes useful features and force everyone to relearn the UI just for the sake of relearning. So no thank you.
