14 DAY TRIAL // Microsoft launched the Windows Insider program in October 2014 with one goal in mind: develop Windows 10 together with its users and introduce the features that they ask for.
With this strategy, the software giant has also attempted to show everyone that it has become a company that really cares about what users have to say, so several of the features they've implemented are more or less based on customer feedback.
Living proof is the recent fourth live tile column introduced in Windows 10 build 10547, which allows users to configure four different live tiles in the Start menu. Previously, the Start menu was limited to just 3 columns and multiples of threes, which obviously was really unhandy on some specific screen sizes.
Now that's available for Windows insiders (everyone is expected to get the same options in the stable version of Windows 10 sometime in the near future).
It's a little bit more clear that Microsoft is indeed keeping an eye on the feedback it receives.
Right now, the fourth live tile in column is the most requested feature in the Windows Feedback app (after an entry that has nearly 3,000 votes and that points to a bug affecting desktop notifications shown in the action center).
Obviously, this is a good thing, but there's clearly more work to be done when it comes to Windows 10, and many more features need to be implemented in future updates.
