This move comes after Microsoft and Google collaborated for the Android-powered Surface Duo, which comes pre-installed with all Google apps.
The unexpected embracing of Windows 10’s universal problem could also mean that Google could well be looking to bring its other apps to the Microsoft Store as well. Likewise, UWP apps also have access to a wide range of APIs for seamless integration with Windows 10 features, such as Action Center, Jump List, Share UI, and more. For instance, a UWP app will finally allow users to easily stream the service in high dynamic range (HDR), which is a feature that offers better contrast and colour on support hardware. By bringing YouTube to the Microsoft Store, Google could significantly improve the YouTube experience on Windows 10.
