Yesterday Microsoft renames the Windows Phone Marketplace to Windows Phone Store which more aligns it with the Windows 8 which uses Store as well. The look and feel of the entire Windows Phone website has changed and takes on a tiled approach.  The Windows Phone Store has more than just a name change and cosmetics, the site also featured some enhancements too.

The list of enhancements for the Windows Phone Store are:

Improved App Search – Now searching for apps can handle typos better and will also allow you to find similar apps and apps in the same genre.

Smarter App List – There are new sorting capabilities to allow  you to find the apps you want much faster.

A friendlier store – Racier apps will be a little less front and center but will show up if you search for them.

 

I like the way the new site looks but I like it all so tell us how you feel about it.
