Several notable mobile apps will soon make their debut on Microsoft's Windows 8 operating system.
At its Build Conference in San Francisco, Microsoft confirmed social network Facebook will introduce its mobile app to Windows 8 users.
Also appearing soon on the operating system: the social reader Flipboard and fantasy football apps from the NFL.
The introduction of these apps arrives as Microsoft's attempts to beef up offerings for the variety of Windows 8 mobile devices. Tablets have access to nearly 100,000 apps, far short of competitors running Apple iOS and Google Android, both of which offer well over 700,000 apps.
Microsoft also revealed several changes coming to the Windows 8.1 update, including the return of the Start button and the option to launch in desktop mode.
