What about LDS Tools and Library as Win 8 Metro apps?
Posted: Tue May 28, 2013 1:40 pm
I know that the primary focus is iOS and mobile but regardless who's publishing the numbers there's no question that at least 50M copies of Win8 are out there, with sales rate likely to exceed most if not all the other platforms. Is there official work in progress?
Please don't point to the fact that they're available via browser. I'm well aware, but that simply doesn't meet the need as internet is frequently not available in the meeting houses in my stake. And most will admit the browser experience when using the library is sub par compared with the app versions.
On LST Tech I have seen independent efforts on the apps but what I'm querying is if there's an official effort under way, and if so when we should expect to see something, if not, why not?
FYI in my household I have 2 iPads, 3 Windows phones, Multiple Win8 desktops/Laptops, and Microsoft Surface Pro and RT. I significantly prefer the Surface pro to iPad so that's the tablet I carry but I'm frequently thwarted by the lack of LDS Core Apps in Win 8 Metro.
