Flip Tile template design guidelines for Windows Phone

[ This article is for Windows Phone 8 developers. If you’re developing for Windows 10, see the latest documentation. ]

In this topic, we’ll cover the flip Tile template in greater detail.

Note

The flip Tile template is modeled after the Windows Phone OS 7.1 Tile template, therefore the same design guidelines apply to Windows Phone 8 and Windows Phone 7.1 flip Tiles. If you’re designing a Tile for Windows Phone 7.1, the following flip Tile template guidelines apply.

This topic contains the following sections.

The following image describes sizing information for the flip Tile template.

Flip Tile character count info

All character counts are approximations because Segoe WP isn’t a fixed-width font. No lines wrap on their own; you’ll have to program your own line breaks.
