Apps is just like shortcut of an application uinstalled on a Pc/Desktop.  But the thing is Tablets or Smartphones are not good as Pc/Desktop. when in comes to Hardware PC/Desktop is very much better than a Tablet or a Smartphone especially when it comes to graphics, since in a Pc/desktop we have Accelerator Graphics Card. So with that in mind I think in the future PC/Desktop will also upgrade much better than a tablet or smartphones.

Microsoft's developer guidelines say 'design for touch and get mouse and keyboard for free' so it makes sense to understand something about using touch even if you use the mouse or keyboard. I suggest that you try it out on a touch screen, maybe on a display computer at a physical store or even on a recent Windows phone.

The edges and the corners of the screen are where it is all happening, as the following diagram illustrates. Microsoft recommends that applications should have controls where it is easier for users to touch the screen. Holding a tablet in both hands the darker areas are easier to reach. Naturally, the whiter area is less likely to be obscured by hands so it is the best place to place information that people should be able to see and read.

Windows8.1 doesn't even get a new version number, but it has some key tweaks that should finally appease desktop and laptop users—and it's better than ever on tablets.
