Microsoft announced a new update for its popular Android Launcher today, just a couple of days after the version 4.10 became available for beta testers. Today’s update is actually the phase 2 of this “major release,” and after adding a Microsoft Family integration last week this latest version brings several new features including Visual Search, Microsoft Rewards integration, a new wallpaper experience as well as a new App drawer layout.

We’re not seeing this update yet on our own Android phones, but Microsoft’s Gorden Lin shared all the details about this release on thededicated Google+ community:

If you want to try these new features, you’ll need to install this version from theGoogle Play Beta store. If you’re interested in testing the new Microsoft Family integration, we remind you that you’ll need first to set up your own ataccount.microsoft.com/family.
