Remarks

Tile added from the Tile type

The tile associated with the application is customized. You have the ability to add up to 5 different customizations. These customizations can be removed by TileDeleteAll.

Tile added from an URI

A tile added from an URI is used to create a tile with update, even if the application is closed. At the end of each period, the tile will get the content of the XML file found in the URI to perform the udpate.

See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/hh779724.aspx for more details.

Note: The ..XML property of the Tile type is used to retrieve a valid XML code.

A recurring tile can be deleted by TileDeleteAll.

Special case

The first addition of a tile into an application will deleted the existing customizations (if any).
