A header menu is part of the hierarchical navigation pattern for Windows Store apps. It offers the user a shortcut to navigate to different sections of your app without needing to click the back button and drill into another section. The items in the header menu should match the sections of your hub that the user can drill into. At the bottom of the list, you should include an item to return to your hub, or home.
