Is there an official name for the apps that are found in Windows Store? They were previously called Metro-Style apps. But now it seems they are being called Modern UI apps or Windows Store apps.

    I think it's very obvious where Microsoft is heading with the OS if they are naming the UI-style "store"... :P

They are called "Windows Store Apps" – nothing very fancy.
