Do you have a Samsung or Android based tablet? Would you like to try a different user interface on it? Well let us introduce you to a new experience by trying the Windows 8 Metro interface. You can now try this interface without having to purchase a whole new tablet. There is a new App available for Android users called Win8 Metro Testbed. This will not work on the Android phone, but it definitely works best on a touchscreen Android tablet.
For the newest of windows OS versions, you will be able to use all of the touch options that are available. Some of these options include using the charms menu and then being able to move between different applications, select an app, close an app and perform a semantic zoom. All of these features can be accessed using various touch gestures. Some of the gestures include swiping from the right side of the screen, swiping from the left side of the screen, pulling from the top and pinching the screen.
Again if you want to use Windows 8 Metro UI and don’t want to have to purchase a new tablet for around $1000, then the Wins8 Metro Testbed is for you. You will need to have APC installed with windows 8 Release Preview. This is required. This app can also be used on the iPad. If you are a windows developer, this is a must have for you to add to your toolkit. It would be fun for you to make a YouTube video reviewing your experiences with this application. You can’ t go wrong by taking a closer look at the Win8 Metro Testbed application.
