New interaction
In respecting the user's ownership of the Start screen, the "all apps" view has become more important: it's now the only place that newly installed applications will appear. Getting to All Apps in Windows 8 was clumsy. You had to tap up the app bar, then tap on All Apps.
Windows 8.1 makes things much better, with a nod to Windows Phone. In Windows Phone, you get to All Apps by swiping the Start screen from right to left. Windows 8.1 uses an equivalent gesture: swipe up on the Start screen and you'll see All Apps. Mouse users get an arrow button to click on to do the same thing.
This makes All apps much easier to get to, and it's a substantial improvement for both mouse and touch users alike.
It does, however, have consequences for some of the other Start screen interactions. In Windows 8, tiles were selected (so that they could be moved or modified) with a 'nudge' gesture. That's not an option here because the nudge would end up scrolling to all apps. Now selection is performed with a more traditional long tap.
Overall, this change probably makes sense. Fast access to All Apps is more useful, but I'm a little sad to see the nudge go. We're still early in the evolution of touch interfaces, and the nudge felt to me like a useful new gesture for a familiar problem: selecting items in a list.
The implementation was not quite perfect, as there were reports that people accidentally nudged tiles when they meant to tap them, but it was nonetheless more fluent than a long tap. It took advantage of touch's ability to support delicate, small movements, and it didn't force you to wait forever for the long press to kick in.
Search
In Windows 8, Search was used not just for top-level, global searches but also for contextual, in-app searches. I never liked this mechanism. Search operations are often highly contextual.
Consider a mail application with a standard triple pane view (all folders, the contents of the current folder, and the currently selected mail). "Search" can mean "search all folders," "search the current folder," or "search the current mail." Each of those three panes has a meaningful interpretation of the search verb, and while related, they're all different.
The Windows 8 top-level search didn't respect the importance of context. If you invoked search from the Mail app it would just search everything.
Along with this lack of respect for context, the search charm had functional limitations. If you're writing an e-mail, you can switch to the contact picker (provided by the People app) to let you populate the "to:" field from your contacts. It's logical to want to be able to search your long list of contacts to find the address you want—but the Search charm directs the search to the app(that is, Mail) rather than the picker. Technically, Microsoft could have changed this behavior to allow search to be directed at pickers, but it hasn't.
In Windows 8.1, the search charm is repurposed as a global search. To ensure compatibility with old Windows 8.0-oriented applications, it can still be used to search within an application—change its scope from its default of "Everywhere" to the current application—but new applications aren't meant to use the charm any more. Instead, they're meant to insert search boxes or magnifying glass icons wherever it's appropriate to do so.

Background Information
Released as part of a shift by Microsoft towards regular yearly major updates for its software platforms and services, Windows 8.1 aims to address complaints of Windows 8 users and reviewers on launch. Visible enhancements include an improved Start screen, additional snap views, additional bundled apps, tighter OneDrive (formerly SkyDrive) integration, Internet Explorer 11, a Bing- [Windows 8.1 ISO Desktop] powered unified search system, restoration of a visible Start button on the taskbar, and the ability to restore the previous behavior of opening the user’s desktop on login instead of the Start screen. Windows 8.1 also added support for such emerging technologies as high-resolution displays, 3D printing, Wi-Fi Direct, and Miracast streaming.
Windows 8.1 received mixed reception, although more positive than Windows 8, with critics praising the expanded functionality available to apps in comparison to 8, its OneDrive integration, along with its user interface tweaks and the addition of expanded tutorials for operating the Windows 8 interface. Despite these improvements, Windows 8.1 was still criticized for not addressing all digressions of Windows 8 (such as a poor level of integration between Metro-style apps and the desktop interface), and the potential privacy implications of the expanded use of online services. As of March 2016, the market share of Windows 8.1 is 10.30%.
