Universal Windows Apps Finally!

I sure hope Logos is paying attention to the Windows 8 annoucement today.

Quote:

And the final piece with the app situation is Universal Apps. At long last, common code can be used to develop for phones, tablets, laptops, and desktops. Visual Studio will now build one application, which can have both Windows 8/RT and Windows Phone binaries. This also enables the store to allow one app purchase to be installed on both platforms without having to re-purchase the app as you do now. The keynote demonstration was the Modern version of Office, coded to WinRT, and running on both the desktop and phone with the same code base. Even better, with the update developers can now target Desktop apps (due to the windowed mode), Tablet apps, Phone apps, and even Xbox One apps, all with common code. This is a big win for developers, and I’m sure Microsoft is hoping it draws more developers to WinRT, which in turn will be a big win for consumers.

Now there's even less reason to not get a Windows 8 Phone app and perhaps even an improved regular app. This is what Microsoft should have done all along.

I don't know how many Logos users will be using the Bible! app on their Xbox, but in theory they could if they wanted to if Logos acted on this update.
