• Microsoft has announced that a new ESPN app will be coming to the Microsoft Store this month.
• Windows Insiders can also start testing an integration between the Microsoft Store and Amazon Prime Video starting today.
• 90% of the “most used apps on Windows” are now distributed through the Microsoft Store, according to Microsoft.

The Windows 11 2022 Update rollout caught the eye today, but there’s also news on the Microsoft Store. The revamped Microsoft Store has been a focal point for Microsoft since it was first announced, and that trend continues. Microsoft announced today that a new ESPN app is on its way to the store. Additionally, Windows Insiders can start testing a new integration with Amazon Prime Video that makes it easier to find content.

The Microsoft Store already has a WatchESPN app, but a new Sports Network app is on the way. Microsoft promises fans will be able to enjoy live events and replays through the app, which will roll out this month.

The integration between Amazon Prime Video and the Microsoft Store provides quick access to movies and TV shows. When users search for content through the Microsoft Store, they are presented with results from Amazon Prime Video alongside other sources. This feature is similar to what’s already available for Disney+ when browsing the Microsoft Store.

A new unified OneNote app will also be rolling out this month, which we covered in detail in a separate article. This app bundles the currently available OneNote and OneNote for Windows 10 apps.

Microsoft claims that 90% of the “most used apps on Windows” are distributed through the Microsoft Store. The company did not elaborate on its definition of most used. We’ve seen a wave of popular apps hit the Microsoft Store, including Zoom, OBS Studio, Canva, Visual Studio Code, and Microsoft Teams.
