Is there any possibility to add another accounts to manage published application for Windows Phone?
I was looking something similar to this:

Sadly, it is currently not possible.

Is it possible to create a client-side only app, with no server backend, that stores data in a way that one user can see things stored by another user on the app?
To give some context, I am trying to create an cross platfor phone application, preferably using html, that will allow users to log their hours in a punch in, punch out style and then have these hours become viewable by a supervisor, however I will not have any server power to store any data.
I'm sure this is possible, perhaps using something like google spreedsheets or something similar to store this data, however I am at a loss how I would do this. Any help would be appreciated.
The short answer is "No."
However you can use a service such as Firebase to host your data for you.
I want to more rapidly release updates for my application. Is it possible to call Web APIs from the Windows store to publish updates to my Windows 10 apps directly to the Store without manual interaction?
As far as I know .. there's no official API from Microsoft for that, you could ask for that : https://wpdev.uservoice.com/forums/110705-universal-windows-platform .
Using Box api, is it possible to enumerate list of applications installed by an user? Ideally, I want to be able query permissions also.
Seems like it can't be done as of currently available APIs
EDIT: To clarify, I am referring to the local database support: Local Database for Windows Phone 8 using Microsoft.Phone.Data.Linq namespace. I believe that the technology is based on SQL CE.
I have an existing Windows Phone 8 application that I would like to migrate to the new Universal Windows application framework. The application relies heavily on Linq to SQL that is baked into the Windows Phone Silverlight API. I understand that I can stick with Silverlight, but it seems to me that it is only a matter of time before Microsoft pushes us all to Universal. Additionally, it just makes sense if I want to present this application as a Windows application too.
So, I'm really struggling with how I could make this transition and not screw my existing users over. Clearly I could just rearchitect the application with a different data layer and let the users re-create their configuration, but that isn't a desireable way to treat my users.
I'm happy to migrate to a different persistence mechanism, but still the problem remains of how to get their existing configuration to migrate the data? The only option that I've come up with is to create an intermediate version using Silverlight that migrates the data to a new format, and then to later upgrade the application to universal. In this scenario it is still possible to lose users along the way if they miss the intermediate upgrade.
Ideas?
An intermediate release of your Silverlight app that performs the migration is the best way to go. If you have that version in the store for a while, you should get most of your users transitioned over, especially once they upgrade to Windows Phone 8.1, which auto-updates apps by default.
Amm... I'm not shure, but SQL for Windows 8.1 is already available and SQL for Windows Phone 8.1 is in preview status. It's not a LinqToSQL, but it works. So, I think, You can try to use it to interact with current data-files on your users clients, until they are SQL-database too.

I have developed a few forms for analysing data on a access database. Now I would like to know if it would be possible to host the forms on a link over the net having the database in a different system. Basically I want the database to be in a different system, the user should see the forms and use it but all processing, must take place in the system where the database is. The user must then be able to see the results.
Is this possible?
No, it's not possible. The web has a separate client for user interaction (usually the browser) and a server for storage. Browsers do not support Access for GUI interaction.
However, you can still use Access for storage (although this is not advisable), but you will have to find a solution for converting the Access forms to web forms. Fortunately, there are plenty of tools available that can do that for you.
There are various limitations in Access/Sharepoint combination. Like union query is not supported in web access and other things. Access can be better deployed over net by using remote connection with mysql (or other server dedicated or cloud) as backend.
Since Access 2010, it is possible to run Access forms on-line. This can be seen in Access 2010: Outlook-Style Calendar in Browser, by Albert Kallal
