Just-Eat.co.uk goes fully universal on Windows 10 with a beta app for Xbox One
British takeaway service Just-Eat.co.uk has pledged full Xbox One support for the next version of its UWP app.
Just-Eat.co.uk pools local takeaways, allowing users to browse menus, review, and order food from various restaurants directly from the site.
As detailed by Just Eat's app team on the Xbox One subreddit, users in the UK are now able to join the beta test for their Windows 10 app on Xbox One, in what is frankly, one of the most impressive UWP efforts we've seen so far.
If you're in the UK and want to participate in the beta, Just Eat detailed how you can join in on this subreddit post.
Considering the Xbox One app is in beta, it already feels incredibly polished and fully featured, and probably isn't far away from a full launch on the console. Just like the Windows 10 app, you can browse local listings, access full menus, place orders, and view restaurant location information. Account sign in works, allowing you to check on orders and make reviews. The app is speedy and full of fluid animations.
Unlike many UWP apps currently available on Xbox One, Just Eat has reworked the UI to be intuitive for use with a controller, rather than just fall back on the awkward joystick cursor seen in other Xbox One UWP apps.
Just Eat is a shining example of how good a Windows 10 app can be within the ecosystem, and we can only hope other companies take notice. If you haven't already, you can check out the existing Just Eat Windows 10 app using the link below.
