Key Points
- Copilot now works inside Edge on both desktop and mobile for the first time
- Tab reasoning lets Copilot compare info across multiple open tabs automatically
- Journeys is now on mobile but only in the U.S., helping you pick up browsing projects later
What is changing
Microsoft is bringing Copilot directly into the Edge browser on both desktop and mobile. This means you can ask questions and get help without leaving your current page. The update combines Copilot with a redesigned new tab page, making it easier to start your browsing session.
For mobile users, this is the first time Copilot features are available in the Edge app. Tab reasoning lets Copilot read across your open tabs to compare information and surface key details. You just ask a question and it pulls relevant info from multiple tabs at once.
Why it matters
This update matters most to people who do research, comparison shopping, or multitask across many browser tabs. Students, shoppers, and anyone juggling multiple projects will spend less time switching between tabs.
The main benefit is saving time when comparing options or picking up where you left off. However, availability varies – Journeys is only on mobile in the U.S., Writing assistant is U.S. only, and some features require specific subscriptions. Have you tried Copilot in Edge yet?
