Windows 10 and Windows 10 Mobile RS2 Now Feature-Complete, Countdown Begins
Build 15031 marks an important milestone for Creators Update
Windows 10 build 15031 is now available for both PCs and mobile devices enrolled in the Windows Insider program and its release marks an important milestone in the development process of the new Windows 10 Creators Update.
Build 15031 makes the switch to the rs2_release branch for PCs and phones and concludes the release of new features, with Microsoft now switching focus entirely to fixing bugs and improving performance before the big launch projected for this spring.
With Windows 10 Creators Update preview builds now pushed to the release branch, Microsoft is no longer working on developing new features for the operating system simply because it does not have enough time to improve them and fix any potential bugs that might arise before the launch.
The next builds to be shipped to insiders until the arrival of the final version will be exclusively focused on fixing problems reported by testers and if any new features are included, it’s only because they’re part of the internal private builds and not yet available to users.
Windows 10 Mobile still lacking features
The worst thing is that Windows 10 Mobile builds are still lacking functionality included in their PC siblings, as it’s the case of the blue light filter and the recently-introduced picture-in-picture mode.
Microsoft did confirm that some features would be added to Windows 10 Mobile when they’re ready, but with Windows 10 Creators Update now being feature-complete, it’s very clear that this isn’t going to happen in the next OS update. So the next target is now Redstone 3, which should go live in the fall of 2017.
Windows 10 Creators Update is expected to see daylight in April, if information coming through unofficial channels is correct, so Microsoft has some 2 months to fix the bugs users are reporting.
As far as Windows 10 Mobile devices are concerned, there still are plenty of bugs to be fixed there, but luckily, there aren’t too many features in this update so only a few things could go wrong.
