Using its sign-in alert feature, Gmail is now detecting when someone is using the new Microsoft Edge and attempting to push them back to Chrome.
Google’s Chrome browser has a dominant share on desktop computers, but competition is always out there. With Microsoft’s new Edge browser becoming ever more popular, Google is now using Gmail’s sign-in alerts to push those new Edge users back over to Google Chrome.
Whenever you sign in to a Google account on a new device or browser, you’ll get a sign-in alert on your email. Generally, these emails only contain information such as the location and device you’ve signed in with, but there’s a special message when users sign in via Microsoft’s new Edge browser.
