Windows Phone Power Tools–a must have extension for all Windows Phone developers

The Windows Phone Power Tools are a natural extension to the developer tools that come with the Windows Phone SDK.

• Instead of allowing you to only install developer xaps the Power Tools let you test update scenarios by allowing you to update an existing developer app.
• Instead of having to step through the IsolatedStorage file browser on the command line, the Power Tools provide a GUI to allow you to interact with your applications.

Here are some screen shots :

We can connect to a Windows Phone device(after launching Zune)

Or select an Emulator for your choice

Note:

1. You can browse only the applications that you have installed through your developer license.
2. You cannot browse through IsolatedStorage area of applications installed through Windows Phone store.
