I like the new Microsoft. It is unfortunate that the company made a mess of Windows Phone, but I really like the new approach. The company’s new drive in mobile application development for Android OS and iOS is in the right direction. The latest out of Redmond is that they are taking on Google in the mobile browser war. Microsoft Edge Preview for Android and for iOS is out and ready for as many as will love to take it for an early spin.
I have mentioned how good Microsoft Edge is a few times. Having used it on both a Windows PC and a Windows smartphone, it is a huge improvement over its predecessor, Microsoft Internet Explorer. Microsoft Edge is a very modern web browser.
What To Expect From Microsoft Edge Preview for Android
- You will be able to sync your information (passwords, favourites, browsing history) and use them across your devices – PC, tablet and smartphone.
- Find, view, and share content with a built-in QR Code Reader to pull up information at a touch of a button
- You will be able to use Voice Search while browsing the web
- If you are concerned about your privacy, InPrivate mode is available as well.
The same set of features are available on the iOS version too.
