The new Notepad sports a completely overhauled UI and features rounded corners, Mica material, and other tweaks. The design of the renewed notepad aligns with the visual design of Windows 11.  

Microsoft states that the changes aim to provide a “modern spin on the classic app” with improved functionality. 

The all-new Dark Mode is the highlight of this version of Notepad. This feature was added due to the ‘demand from the community’. This version can adapt to the system’s theme preference by default with the addition of the font options.  

Microsoft has also redesigned the notepad’s ‘find and replace‘ option for an improved workflow. The undo feature allowed users to go back only one step in previous versions. 

 Microsoft is also working on improving its Notepad’s performance when users open very large files. 

In the company’s Insider program, announced on 2014, they have allowed owners of Windows 10, Windows 11, and Windows Server licensee to gain access to pre-release builds of OS.  

Today, the program boasts millions of users who provide valuable feedback and engage with Microsoft engineers. Its platform features three channels – Dev, Beta, and Release Preview.

While Microsoft is yet to start testing its Focus Sessions in public builds of Windows 11, but from the teaser video, it appears to be built into the OS’s Clock app.   

Windows 11’s Focus Sessions looks quite similar to the Pomodoro Technique, which is a method of managing time by breaking it down into smaller chunks of work with short breaks.  

Today, there are a variety of Pomodoro websites and apps that helps users focus on a list of tasks.   

Microsoft’s integration with Spotify might be their way of trying to stand out from the crowd.  

Besides, this is also the first time that we are seeing some significant Spotify integration in Windows since the Groove Music service retired in 2017.   

This is not the first time that both the giants have worked together. Previously, they have joined hands on a Windows 10 app and a separate app for Xbox consoles.
