I downloaded this app due to authenticator ceasing to work without it. I have a newer phone and honestly I'd love to use edge over chrome, unfortunately too many times it just doesn't work properly with links, or to open certain webpages properly, so I have had to go back to chrome too many times and it works flawlessly. It also sucks at recognizing autofill passwords like authenticator used to, so once again back to chrome as it works every time. I wish it was more reliable.
Reviews for Microsoft Edge: AI browser
you have improved. however, Edge needs to allow its users to organise bookmarks the way they want them. when I add a new bookmark it goes to the bottom of the list of the bookmark group. I need to be able to move it anywhere in that list or group of bookmarked web pages. as well, you need to allow more shortcuts in the browser. AND A HOME BUTTON ! is not that difficult.
One of the most crucial things about mobile browsers is the ability to open and interact PDFs seamlessly. Unfortunately, when I try to pinch to zoom my pdfs from my college office 365 eLMS, it stutters and lags rendering it jarring and unusable so I had to go back to chrome just to interact with it properly.
There is always room for improvement. Microsoft in regards to Edge browser could be a 5 star with simplifies configuration wizards instead of throwing users into the abyss of configuration options that are a nightmare, even for 35 year IT gurus like me. Other then that smooth experience with multi tabbing and memory usage (I have 64gig ram) features like shared history and across devices with logon is good. I prefer it over Chrome due to some of the stuff chrome gives to ABC verse Edge to MS.
The option to put the address bar at the bottom keeps being reverted and then the option disappears from the appearance menu. No matter what I do I can't get it back manually and then sometimes out of the blue the option is back in the settings menu. Then I can enable it and just wait for it to revert and dissappear again.
A solid browser but it has one major drawback: it lacks a tabs tray like Google Chrome. Without a bottom tab switcher, it's frustratingly difficult to see and quickly switch between open tabs. This makes it hard to manage multiple pages in a single browsing session, especially when trying to keep track of what’s open. For those of us who rely on fast tab navigation, this missing feature really hurts the app's usability."
Been using for years but coupon shopping has gone, so no discounts are coming up anymore and yea, I used to have this on android for a couple of years. Downloaded Canary and Beta, had shopping initially but disappeared again within a day on both versions and is now greyed out. No blue tag in address bar anymore. It was a highlight of using this over Chrome but with no coupon finder I can't use it anymore. Gutted. Tried to add via edge://flags/#edge-coupons-enable but there's no shopping option.
Really good browser, unfortunately Microsoft did an update that ruined it for a while, but this is now fixed. However, the problems that came with the update made me move to another browser as, at the time, Edge was unusable. If it wasn't for that disastrous update, I would still be using it, as I really liked it. It's a very decent browser. I still use it for work related browsing.
I personally think EDGE is actually a more versatile & capable browser and has quite a lot of tools and utilities. The UI is polished and the overall experience is smooth but it's still not as popular as other browsers. There are instances of rough bits and updates are not always stable and have bugs but still I hope Microsoft keeps it up and does a little more in its advertising department.
Microsoft Edge is a solid browser with smooth performance and fast loading. The sidebar and collections feature make organizing tabs easier, and it integrates well with Microsoft services. Privacy tools like tracking prevention add a nice layer of security. Occasionally, there are minor compatibility issues, and it can use more memory than expected, but overall, it’s reliable and has become one of my go-to browsers. Great job, Microsoft!
