Windows 10 mobile build 14342: what's new

Microsoft is still working on the renewed Windows 10 Mobile and has released a new build to the 'Redstone' branch including new features and solving a large number of bugs. The build in question is 14342 and in the following we will detail which are the most important news that it implements.

What's New in Windows 10 Mobile Build 14342

In this new build Microsoft warns us that the version number that we will see in the phone settings will be 10.0.0.1001 instead of 10.1.14342.1001 and three new phones have been added to the Insider program, the Nokia Lumia Icon, BLU Win HD LTE 150e, and BLU Win JR 130e.

First of all we have to talk about the Applications for Websites, this feature had been announced in the last BUILD 2016 and with it we will be able to redirect web pages so that they will be with an application. Although its use is currently limited, the option is already enabled in Settings> System> Applications for websites.

We recommend reading our analysis of Windows 10.

The Microsoft Edge browser retrieves gestures with the touch screen to go to the previous or next page, this was very requested by users in the feedback and the prayers have been heard.

Another section that has been improved is the Feedback Hub, where users can leave suggestions and report bugs. Now when new feedback is created, the Assessment Center will suggest categories and subcategories based on the title and description that has been written.

All these news and solutions will come with the 'Anniversary Update'

The list of errors that this new build solves is endless but if we had to highlight some of the most important we could talk about that it solves an error when playing DRM content such as Netflix or Amazon Instant Video, the random blocking of the phone when it is received notifications in this mode, the voice and language packages that were not installed correctly, the improvement in the performance when recovering the GPS coordinates or the problem with Windows Hello when I had to scan our irises, etc. If you want to read the complete list of changes you can enter the official Windows blog.

All the news of Windows 10 Mobile Build 14342 will reach the 'common' user when the great update of July 29 called 'Anniversay Update' is released , commemorating the first year of Windows 10's life.
