Windows 10 Mobile Build 14310 Screenshots Show New Update Options

A new Windows 10 Mobile build is likely to be released by Microsoft in the coming days, but till then more information about the features that could be offered to insiders is emerging through unofficial sources.
              
Active Hours is an option that's not available in the current Windows 10 builds. It will allow users to choose the hours when they usually work on the device, so Windows Update can avoid restarting to complete installing new updates.
There's another option that allows users to select a custom restart time and which should supersede settings in active hours. The description of the feature by WinFuture said, "This option allows you to temporarily override active hours and schedule a custom time to finish installing this update. Make sure your device is plugged in at the scheduled time."
The reports about Active Hours first reached the web in late March. As it turned out, similar functionality is expected on all Windows 10 devices, including PCs and mobile devices, so the next build released to insiders might include it too.
Undoubtedly, this feature will be part of the Anniversary Update coming this summer, so for the moment Microsoft's only preparing to collect feedback to further develop it before the public launch.
