Microsoft’s new Bing and Edge mobile apps bring its ChatGPT-powered search to Android and iOS – with voice search powers.
Microsoft’s new ChatGPT-powered Bing search engine is evolving fast – it’s now made the leap to Android and iOS smartphones with new mobile apps that also deliver voice search.
The new apps, which are available today, bring Bing’s new AI chat powers onto our phones for the first time. Assuming your account has access to the new search engine, you’ll be able to summon its chat assistant by tapping the Bing icon at the bottom of your screen.
But the real game-changer, and a harbinger for the future of AI search, is the addition of voice search to Bing’s mobile experience, which Microsoft says is one of its preview community’s “most requested features”.
This means you’ll be able to physically talk to its ChatGPT-powered brain in a more casual way than the desktop version, quizzing it about trivia or potential dinner options (like in Microsoft’s preview image above).
Not content with those new features, Microsoft is also making the new Bing available on the homepage of the Microsoft Edge mobile app – and launching a worldwide preview of what it’s calling “AI-powered Bing for Skype”.
