Metro UI now available to download for Android Tablets

Metro UI on Windows Phone 7 and Windows 8 is very unique, but if you are on Android tablet you cannot experience it. But its release for Android tablets has made it possible, 'BroBot175' from XDA developers has designed and released Metro UI for Android tablets giving them the Metro tiled look of Windows 8.





The theme is flashable to your device using ClockworkMod recovery. It’s worth noting that the theme is in beta, but there is a website with instructions for installing the mod. Apparently, the mod will work on the Asus Transformer and Galaxy Tab 10.1 tablets right now. The beta release supports tablets running Android 4.0 and there are widgets under development just for the mod. If you don’t own either of the two tablets specified for support right now, another theme is coming that will support more tablets. The Metro UI theme will change your your homescreen and notifications panel.

This release is a work in progress and many other things like Music widgets, bug fixes are still in progress.






If you can't wait to experience the Metro UI on your tablet, you may install the beta version from the developer's website. Get the latest changlog and give feedback to the developer here.
