Microsoft Copilot Launches as a Standalone Android App
Microsoft has released a dedicated Copilot app on Android, offering an improved user experience and increased productivity.
Improved User Experience and Productivity
Microsoft has launched a dedicated Microsoft Copilot app on Android to help users improve their productivity. The AI-powered chat assistant, previously known as Bing Chat, offers the same features as it does on apps like Bing and Microsoft Edge. It can perform tasks such as writing content and creating images, providing a more focused and optimized user experience.
By releasing Copilot as a standalone app, Microsoft allows users to directly access the chat option without any delay. This eliminates the need to navigate through multiple apps to access the service. Additionally, launching the app on the Google Play Store increases its visibility and accessibility to a larger audience.
Compatibility and Requirements
To start using Microsoft Copilot on Android, users need to download and install the app from the Google Play Store. The app has a download size of 86.37 MB and requires Android 11 or above. Users with older Android devices may not be able to install the app, so it is recommended to upgrade to at least Android 11 for compatibility. Additionally, a Microsoft account is required to fully utilize the app's features.
While Copilot is now available as a standalone app, it will still exist within apps like Bing and Microsoft Edge. There is no information on when or if the app will be made available for iPhone users.
