Although Microsoft has improved its User Interface and the Cortana, it has still got a lot to do.Because of its limited applications in the store,Microsoft is not gaining the popularity that it deserves.
In a way to enhance its smartphone market,Microsoft is willing to support Android apps in its Windows phone.This is the first by a company(Blackberry provided access to the Android apps in its Blackberry 10.3 OS).
Although Microsoft had launched its Android phone(Nokia X and XL before it was brought by Microsoft),it failed miserably to satisfy the people.
