Lyft is finally coming to Windows 10 devices. The company today released its brand-new Universal Windows Platform app to the Windows Store, allowing users to get a ride from their Windows 10 PC as well as their Windows 10 Mobile device. Lyft’s Windows 10 app is rolling out to users right now, and it will be available shortly to all users.

Here’s the description of the app from the Windows Store:

Need a lift? Use Lyft to get an affordable ride in minutes. Instead of hailing a cab or waiting for the bus, just request a car with the tap of button, and get picked up by a nearby friendly driver who’ll take you to your destination right away. Enjoy a welcoming, affordable, and memorable ride today.

Our app cheaper than a taxi, faster than the bus, and easy to use. And now you can use your Windows mobile phone or table to request your Lyft rides:

  • Getting Started: After downloading Lyft and signing up, simply open the app and request a ride.
  • Paying: Never worry about having cash for a cab or the bus again — with Lyft, you pay through your phone. It’s easy, fast, and secure.
  • Split the Cost: Easily split the cost of a ride with friends through the app. No more IOU’s.

The app itself is currently rolling out, so we weren’t able to get any screenshots of the app just yet. But a Microsoft employee tweeted a screenshot of the app listing where you can get a small idea of how the app looks. From the looks of things, it seems like the app might just be a web wrapper for the company’s web app — but we will let you know once this has been confirmed.

The Lyft app for Windows 10 will be available here from the Windows Store shortly.
