Microsoft makes its Android Arrow Launcher tablet-friendly.

Microsoft has finally brought Arrow, its launcher for Android, to tablets with support for both portrait and landscape mode. Before this update, Arrow Launcher was available on Android phones only and in portrait mode. I'm looking forward to try it on my Google Nexus 7 later today. That's the only Android tablet I own and will stick to it until it dies.

In addition to making Arrow Launcher tablet-friendly, Microsoft also added the ability to choose what to backup and restore; added support for more IM apps in Recent Pages. The latter feature lets you quickly access your most recent messages and interact with them without opening the messaging app.

Give the new Arrow Launcher - version 3.1 - a try in Google Play Store.
