Choose from Small, Medium, or Large. Some tiles have another choice, and that choice is “Wide”. If you choose the “Wide” option, the tile will span two columns. If you have a Weather, News, or a Photos tile, Wide is a great option since it makes details easier to see.<\/span><\/p>\n Turn live tile off:<\/strong> Speaking of “Live tiles” such as the Weather, News, and Photos tiles, this option prevents real-time information from streaming to the tile.

It brings you to a page that lets you rate the app on a one-to-five-star basis and write a review. The rating and review appear in the app\u2019s description in the Microsoft Store.<\/span><\/p>\n Share:<\/strong> This lets you share a link to the app using email, Twitter, and more.<\/span><\/p>\n Depending on your setup, you may need to click “More” to see these options.<\/span><\/p>\n Organize Your Tiles<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n You can even drag the tiles to rearrange them any way you want them.
