| 9 | +# What's new - MSIX app overview page |
| 10 | + |
| 11 | +The MSIX application overview page has received some updates to simplify the navigation and enhance the user experience. The following are some of the key changes: |
| 12 | + |
| 13 | +## 1. Submission sections can be directly accessed from the application overview page |
| 14 | + |
| 15 | +Previously, the developer had to go to the submission overview page to see the status of each of the submission sections of their product. |
| 16 | + |

| 18 | + |
| 19 | +Now, the submission sections and their respective status are directly accessible and visible from the application overview page. The old submission overview page is no longer available. The “Submit for certification” button has now been kept at the Product release section which comprises of Product submission. |

| 22 | + |
| 23 | +## 2. Delete submission and Delete product options are now clubbed together |
| 24 | + |
| 25 | +In previous experience, to delete a product, a developer had to delete a submission first and then delete the product. |
| 26 | + |
| 27 | +:::image type="content" source="../../includes/store/msix/images/old-overview-delete-submission.png" lightbox="../../includes/store/msix/images/old-overview-delete-submission.png" alt-text="A screenshot of the old msix app overview page showing delete submission scenario."::: |

| 30 | + |
| 31 | +In the new experience, a developer cannot delete just the draft submission. If a developer clicks on ‘Delete product’, the existing submission and the product will be deleted. The ‘Delete product’ option can be found adjacent to the product name on the top of the page. |
| 32 | + |
| 33 | +:::image type="content" source="../../includes/store/msix/images/new-overview-delete-product.png" lightbox="../../includes/store/msix/images/new-overview-delete-product.png" alt-text="A screenshot of the new msix app overview page showing delete product scenario."::: |
| 34 | + |
| 35 | +> [!NOTE] |
| 36 | +> The ‘Delete product’ option will be applicable only for the first draft submission. After the product is live, developer cannot delete the product. |
| 37 | +
|
| 38 | +## 3. App status is now shown on the application overview page |
| 39 | + |
| 40 | +The application status (eg: In draft, In certification, In Microsoft Store, Update in draft etc.) is now shown on the top of the application overview page. |

| 51 | + |
| 52 | +## 4. Certification status, Cancel certification, and Certification report are now accessible from the application overview page |
| 53 | + |
| 54 | +Previously, the developer had to click on 'view progress' to see the exact step in certification of their product. Similarly, to cancel certification they had to click on ‘view progress’ and then from certification status page, they could cancel certification for their product. |

| 59 | + |
| 60 | +Now, the certification status and cancel certification option are directly available on the application overview page. If the product has failed certification, the certification report can be accessed through “View report” CTA. |

| 85 | + |
| 86 | +## 7. Check product details which are live in Store directly from the application overview page |
| 87 | + |
| 88 | +If the developer wants to check the product details which are currently live on the Store, they can simply go to ‘Store presence’ section and click on product details. |
| 89 | + |
| 90 | +:::image type="content" source="../../includes/store/msix/images/new-overview-store-presence.png" lightbox="../../includes/store/msix/images/new-overview-store-presence.png" alt-text="A screenshot of the new msix overview page showing Store presence section for viewing app details which are currently live on the Store."::: |
