Microsoft SkyDrive apps adds live support to Windows 8 and RT. People are accessing, viewing, and sharing files that theyve stored on SkyDrive, as well as saving files directly to SkyDrive from other apps. Microsoft announced changes to how youll see SkyDrive from your Start screen.
The SkyDrive app from the Windows Store will start showing you notifications on the live tile when you add new files to your SkyDrive. Now the tile for the SkyDrive app will be useful for more than just launching the app, by providing at-a-glance info on whats going on in your SkyDrive. Whenever you add new files to SkyDrive, the app tile shows you relevant details. If you add a document, youll see the document name, along with when it was added, and what folder its in. If you add photos, the tile gives you a nice view of those photos.
Youll find that the new live tile info enhances your Start screen and makes it feel even more alive and personal to you. This new feature will be rolling out throughout the day, so if you dont see any new info on your SkyDrive tile just yet, sit tight, youll see it very soon!
