Microsoft has updated its Edge
browser for Android today, bringing along some minor but helpful new features.
The changelog mentions a new reading mode experience, but I have not seen any
change so far. The two other features in the list are more interesting though.
Share links and text
from other apps to Microsoft Edge.
From now on, Edge will appear as a sharing option throughout
Android. Say you want to open an article in a news app in Edge browser, simply
tap the share icon and you will find Edge listed among the various options.
Additionally, if you share text, this will result into a search within Edge.
Support for Android 8
(“Oreo”) adaptive icons.
App icons on our devices come in various forms and sizes –
some are round, square or a mix of both. You will agree that’s inconsistent across
the device. That is why Google came up with adaptive icons. No matter which
device you use, the icon will adjust to the one your device uses. And if you use
a different launcher that uses, say, a squircle, then the entire device will adjust
to make all other apps use the same shape.
That’s it for this update which you can download in Google Play Store.
