  Microsoft targets Android users with Switch to Windows Phone app
Time: 09:53 EST/14:53 GMT | News Source: The Verge | Posted By: Robert Stein

Microsoft has released an app in the Google Play store designed to get people to stop using said store and the Android phones that connect to it. Simply called "Switch to Windows Phone," it scans your Android phone for all of your installed apps and then saves the results with your Microsoft ID. Then, using a companion app on Windows Phone itself, you can sign in and see all of the equivalent apps in Microsoft's own store, tapping through to install them each one-by-one. It doesn't show current Android users what those matched apps are, but it could be helpful to recent switchers.
