  3. If you know exactly what you’re looking for, type the name of the app in the search bar at the top of the Store window. You will get a number of results related to the term, sorted into apps, games, artists, albums, songs, films, and TV shows. You can filter the results by clicking on the relevant category on the left. 
  4. If you don’t have something specific in mind, you can browse top apps, games and collections by clicking on the different buttons on the Store home page.
  5. Once you’ve found the app you want, you can download it. If it’s a free app, simply click on ‘Free’ to download it. If it’s a paid app, you can either click on ‘Free trial’ to see if you like it or pay to own it. 
  6. Once you’ve purchased or downloaded an app, you can use it on any compatible device you use your Microsoft account to log into, including your phone, laptop, desktop or Xbox.
