When Microsoft created Windows 8, they had to let go of the old Control Panel and move on to creating a new way of configuring our devices, one that could also be used on tablets and other small screen devices. The Control Panel was doing its job okay, but it was based on a very old design, one that\'s been in Windows for many years. The PC Settings app from Windows 8 turned to using a much simpler design in comparison with the Control Panel. And that made your Windows settings a lot more readable and easier to configure, regardless of the devices you were using. However, the PC Settings app from Windows 8 and Windows 8.1 had a lot of room for improvement. In Windows 10 and, later on, in the Anniversary Update for Windows 10, you have the best Settings app yet. Here are the most important reasons why we love the new Settings app: 1. Clean, touch-friendly design The latest iteration of the Settings app, found in Windows 10 with Anniversary Update is much better designed than all its previous versions. Microsoft invested a lot of effort into making the Settings app very usable, by using a clean and simple design, based mostly on using switches for turning the available settings On or Off. You\'ll find the app easy to use both on touch and non-touch devices, due to the switches available everywhere and due to the fact that there are no useless visual adornments and all the major sections are logically organized.

When you launch the app, its Home screen welcomes you with a set of tiles that each represent a category of settings. Once you get inside one of these categories, you are usually going to work with settings that are clearly described and split into various sections that you can select from the left side of the window. Everything is there - easy to reach and easy to understand. Windows 10, Settings, app, features 3.
