Arrow Launcher updates and brings a lot of news

Arrow is a favorite launcher for AndroidPIT readers. The app was created by Microsoft in 2015 and aims to gather information on the system start screens that is useful to users in widgets. An update full of new features has come to Arrow, which is what I'm talking about next.

In fact, Arrow is a good choice for those looking for a functional smartphone or tablet launcher. I've used the same on both of these devices and I confess that I liked the result. Of course, some aspects still need to be improved, such as RAM and data management, as the app updates real-time background information.

The final version of Arrow available on the Play Store is 3.7, but news is coming in the app's beta channel, also available in the store, through compilation 3.8. This update brings updates to calendar, news, and contact widgets, which have been redesigned and now display more information.

In addition, the spacing of icons and folders has been optimized on the desktop as well as in the app drawer, making the look even more minimalist and clean. The update still provides bug fixes and optimizes Arrow's performance, but Microsoft does not detail whether improvements have been made to the app's memory consumption in the background.
