The Microsoft Store in Windows 11 may soon let you download third-party widgets – tiny apps that provide at-a-glance info, such as the current weather, or local traffic – according to one eagle-eyed Twitter user.
FireCube did some digging recently and spotted that the widget manifest has been updated to reference downloading widgets.
The text informing users that they can “download new widgets and widget updates in Microsoft Store” is another piece of evidence that the eventual plan is to let developers put their third-party widgets in the Store, and let Windows 11 users download whatever they want.
