"SkyDrive is the place to store your files so you can access them from virtually any device. With SkyDrive for Android, you can now easily access and share files on the go. You can also upload photos or videos from your phone to SkyDrive," states the official Play Store page .
The official Windows blog asserts that "In building the new SkyDrive app for Android, we wanted to ensure we kept the same intuitive design of all SkyDrive experiences while also making use of Android design patterns and conventional interactions, so this feels natural for people with Android phones."
The current SkyDrive release is available for Android phones and provides access to Google Play. Additionally, even though fully functional on Android Gingerbread and other updated versions "the new app is designed to work best with Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich)."
