Ride-hailing app Uber first made its way to Windows Phone 8.1 almost eighteen months ago. Now, the company is among the first major multinational brands to launch an app built on Microsoft's Universal Windows Platform (UWP), allowing it to run not just on Windows 10 Mobile smartphones, but also across Windows 10 PCs and tablets.
You can book an Uber from your Windows 10 device, and the Live Tile on the Start menu will count down to the estimated arrival time of your ride, without you needing to keep opening the app to check. However, if you book from a PC or tablet, you will still need a phone with the app installed to complete the journey.
