Now every Bing app for Windows Phone feature a new option to sign-in with a Microsoft account, which makes possible to sync configuration and data between Windows 8 PCs and Windows Phone devices. Microsoft describes it as a seamless integration between devices: “You only need to set your preferences once, and your favorite stuff will always be there”.
The new apps
In the new wave of updates, Microsoft is also releasing three new apps for Windows Phone:
