With exactly one month until the release of Windows 10, Microsoft continues to launch new apps and updates to already available ones.

After releasing Office for Android phone, which has been in public testing for more than a month, Microsoft is now launching a smaller app that should come in handy when changing call preferences for operator networks.

Calls+ has been around on Windows Phone platform for quite a while, but today Microsoft released a new application that should be replacing the Network+ app.

The new application comes with a few extra features in tow, which will allow Windows Phone users to enable call forwarding when they don't want to answer on a certain phone/number or are simply unreachable.

But, according to Microsoft, “Call Extras is a settings app that will enable you to set your call waiting and call forwarding preferences for your network.”

Those who own Windows Phone devices that offer dual-SIM support can also configure the settings for both cellular networks they are using.

It supports non-Lumia smartphones too

If you don't have the application yet, you can now download Call+ for Windows Phone for free via Windows Phone Store. Keep in mind though that the application is only compatible with devices powered by Windows Phone 8.1.

Microsoft has yet to confirm whether or not Call+ is also working on Windows 10 Mobile Technical Preview builds, but you can try it out for free.

It's also worth mentioning that Calls+ will not be shown in the list of installed apps. This means that in order to benefit from its features, you will have to head over to Settings on the smartphone.

Windows Phone fans that use smartphones other than Lumia will be pleased to know that Calls+ is available on their devices as well, assuming they are running Windows Phone 8.1.
