Summary
Six Windows 11 inbox apps—Clock, Media Player, Calculator, Photos, Paint and Sound Recorder—received feature updates, while Microsoft also began publishing standalone changelogs for stock apps on Microsoft Learn.
Clock got one of the biggest refreshes in version 11.2605.9.0, adding overdue timer count-up, a 15-minute snooze option and support for three simultaneous countdowns, alongside broad accessibility and bug fixes.
Photos version 2026.11060.2004.0 added optional Copilot watermarking for AI-edited images, while Paint 11.2605.61.0 introduced adjustable eraser transparency and fixes for crashes, JPEG saves and layer handling.
Media Player 11.2605.14.0 added customizable captions and clearer indexing and codec messages, while Calculator, Camera and Sound Recorder focused on accuracy, device compatibility, memory use and interface reliability.
The new documentation shifts app update tracking away from scattered build notes, giving each Windows app a chronological release history for users following feature rollouts.
