Microsoft announced the Windows Phone 8.1 at the BUILD conference in the first week of April and it comes with tons of new features and improvements. We also covered on how to get the developer preview of Windows Phone 8.1 which Microsoft released in April. Although developer preview is just a beta version of the upcoming Windows Phone 8.1, millions of WP8 users upgraded to developer preview.

There were many issues in the developer preview of WP8.1. Microsoft has listened to the user feedback on this update and has announced that starting today they are delivering an update to the Windows Phone 8.1 Preview for Developers (build number 8.10.12382.878). This update includes several improvements based on the feedback we’ve received, and we’re happy to be rolling it out after just one month.
