Microsoft Buying "Echo", Application Popular Android Lock Screen


es officially declared that the Startup Double Laps, application developers Echo Popular Android Lockscreen Notification was acquired by Microsoft. Of course this is not the first time Microsoft acquired a variety of popular apps in the Google Play Store, as well as the application To do List Wunderlist and calendar applications from Sunrise.

Application is true lockscreen 1 -5 million times already installed by Android users. Feature that is given is not only to shift the open lock in Android lockscreen like most others, but more than that.

Echo Notification Lockscreen is equipped with features to categorize incoming notification sequence when ignited. Cool again this application could set a notification which will be in when you are in a place based on the priorities you've set. For example when you are at home you can set up e-mail - a personal email so that incoming email while you are working will be delayed the entry. Cool right?

Microsoft itself initially also already has apps Next Lock Screen that was done by Microsoft Garage and must be published for Android and already installed up to 1-5 million times. UI design is also not much different from the Echo application, which distinguishes it exists on the sale price on the priority feature echo that feels better and productive.

Confusing thing is that Microsoft already has applications on Android and Installation Launcher also has reached 1-5 million times, then why buy applications that almost resemble?

It is clear why Microsoft did not hesitate - reluctant to be on top of mastering cross platform ecosystem. Microsoft wants to satisfy their customers of any platform. Microsoft also wants his business to run smoothly and ecosystem productivity apps master any platform, be it Windows or not

There Echo Notification Lockscreen is going dibranding repeated with Microsoft services, or it could be associated with the product - other Microsoft products such as Office, Calendar, Outlook, and the other - just like they did with apps Sunrise (which is used as Outlook Calendar) and Acompli ( which is used as Outlook Mail).
