Hello!

Working with Universal Apps is quite grateful. However, before the build 10.0.10240.0, trying to find out the kind of platform that our app was running was a bit complicated.

Today we can solve it with a single line of code, using AnalyticsVersionInfo. In example:

return Windows.System.Profile.AnalyticsInfo.VersionInfo.DeviceFamily;

It returns us a value of the type:

  • Windows.Desktop
  • Windows.IoT
  • Windows.Mobile
  • Windows.Xbox

And with that we can now continue working. It is most common in this case, is the decision to use a specific API in a platform.
