Microsoft has continued its new trend of releasing apps outside of its own ecosystem, unveiling a slew of MSN-branded apps for iOS, Android and Amazon.
The apps are all free and were originally developed for Windows 8 and Windows Phone devices.
Among the new apps are News, Weather, Sports, Food & Drink, Healthy & Fitness, and Money.
MSN's portal page still receives 400 million users per year, and the name still resonates with consumers. Previously, the apps were branded as Bing, which has less recognition despite being more modern.
Each of the apps are newly coded for their respective platforms, and not just ports, says Microsoft.
