Microsoft is brought Snap Layouts, which allow you to quickly snap apps into the various modes that Windows 11 supports. This new version of Windows 11 will also remember where your apps are stored, thanks to something called Snap Groups. It looks like a useful way to support multiple monitors and ensure that apps always open on the correct screen.

In Windows 11 update, you can connect instantly to the people you care about right from your desktop with Microsoft Teams. Call or chat for free—no matter what device they’re on. With Microsoft Edge and a multitude of Widgets you can choose from, you can quickly stay up to date with the news, information, and entertainment that matters most to you. Easily find the apps you need and the programmes you love to watch in the new Microsoft Store, the company said.

One of the biggest parts of Windows 11 is the new store and support for Android apps on Windows. The Microsoft Store is redesigned and will support a whole host of apps that haven’t typically been available in the Windows app store. That includes apps from Adobe Creative Suite, and Android apps including Snapchat and Instagram, the verge reported.

Microsoft is also improving the gestures you can use on tablets and the touch targets. Instead of flipping into a tablet mode, Windows 11 simply adapts to allow you to touch the OS easily.

"Windows 11 takes gaming to a whole new level with graphic capabilities that rival reality. Discover your next favourite game with Xbox Game Pass, giving you access to over 100 high-quality games (membership sold separately)," the company said.

There’s no release date for Windows 11 yet, but Microsoft has promised to make it available as a free upgrade to Windows 10 users during the holiday season this year (sometime in November). The rollout will continue into 2022. In India, the Windows 11 rollout schedule is going to be the same.
