Help to update app to Universal app

Hi,


When you have your app with same name and logo with similar functionality in both windows phone and windows store then it is a universal app.


Method 1:

So now you already have your app in windows store, So what you need to do is, Build a windows phone app with all similar functionality and publish it to the windows phone store. While reserving the same APPNAME in the windows Phone store, you will be asked to link both the app(windows store and the (new)windows phone ), so Just accept that and go ahead.

Method 2:(Preferred, and suggested)
You can create a new Universal App solution,

i) Have shared code for both projects(Viewmodels)
ii) Add UI for two projects(windows store and windows phone) within the solution
iii) Link the view and viewmodel for both projects.
iv) Compile, you will get .appx and .xap 
v) Publish individually.
