One of the lesser-known gems of Windows Phone was Contact-based reminders. You could tie reminders to people and be reminded whenever you interact with them. I used it regularly. Has this been copied anywhere else??
The specifics of their keyboard implementation were also really great. And that UI! The well-designed apps which followed their design language were so goddamn clean.
WP had many unique ideas but was always on the outside looking in.
i was doing this stuff on windows phone with the good version of Cortana (before they shoehorned it into windows pc and completely ruined it)
