OneDrive for Windows Phone changes its interface to be more consistent with Modern UI

As we anticipated a month ago, Microsoft has been working on an update for OneDrive on Windows Phone that seeks to respond to user complaints regarding the previous update, which added a new interface to which was accused of being too similar to OneDrive for Android, and therefore being inconsistent with the appearance of Windows Phone.

Today that update, version 4.5, has finally come to light, so we can now download it from the store and thus enjoy a OneDrive application more according to the guidelines of Modern UIAmong the specific changes is the disappearance of the upper blue bar and the return to text titles to indicate each of the horizontal sections.

It's good to see Microsoft listening to user feedback in order to achieve an experience that we like

Of course, the design is not identical to that of the old versions of OneDrive either, since elements of version 4.4 are preserved, such as the hamburger-shaped buttonto indicate the main menu, characteristic of Android applications. Still, it's good to see Microsoft listening to user feedback and correcting previous steps to achieve an experience we like.

Let's remember that we can always participate in the OneDrive User Voice page to suggest other improvements to the service on its different platforms.

OneDrive for Android is also updated

And following the line of giving full multiplatform support in all its services, Microsoft has also launched an update for OneDrive on Android Thanks to it, 2 functions are added that, if Although they were already available on Windows Phone, they will surely be welcomed by OneDrive users on Google's operating system.

The first of these is support for recycle bin, thanks to which it is possible to restore recently deleted files. The second is the ability to pin folders to the Android home screen thanks to the use of operating system widgets.

Both updates can now be downloaded from the respective stores, if they have not already been installed automatically for us.
