The official name of Windows 10 Build 1809 is Windows 10 October 2018 Update

Microsoft released a blog post in which, in addition to showing some of the new Windows 10 PCs released this week at IFA 2018 in Berlin, Microsoft officially announced that the next feature update for Windows 10 would be called the October 2018 update. The name continues to use the naming method of the Windows 10 2018 update that was released earlier this year.

As you can see from the latest version of Windows 10 Insider Preview, the version number for this update will be 1809. However, the version numbers between different categories of Windows 10 devices are different. For example, the update codenamed Redstone 5 is on the Xbox One console with a version number of 1810.

One of the critical points of the Windows 10 October 2018 update is stability, but it does include some new features, such as Your Phone, which is an app that lets users interact with their phone’s photo library and send and receive text messages, make and receive calls, etc. This is an application that can be downloaded from the Microsoft Store. Apps that were updated in April 2018 should also be updated at some point. There is also a file manager with a dark theme.

The long-awaited feature set was cancelled during the test, or at least delayed. It may appear in the preview of the next feature update after this, codenamed 19H1. In other news, Microsoft pointed out that Windows 10 is still only installed on nearly 700 million devices.
