Just last week, Google rolled out a new way to use Google Lens on the desktop, allowing Chrome browser users on desktop to search any image on a web page with Google Lens. The browser’s new privacy report, for example, shows how many and which cross-site trackers Intelligent Tracking Prevention (ITP) stopped from accessing your information.Ĭhrome is often considered a more attractive browser, however, with web applications such as YouTube, Drive, Calendar, Docs, Earth and Maps, among others. That said, Apple has introduced several new privacy features to the browser over the past year that could help attract users. And while Microsoft ships its Edge browser with Windows, it lost out on the mobile market due to the Windows Phone’s failure. This helps to give both tech behemoths a leg up in the competition. Microsoft Edge currently stands just fine on its own as a solid browser alternative to Chrome and the browser has almost doubled its market share despite being only a year out of beta.Apple’s web browser is automatically installed on every Apple device, while Chrome is installed with most versions of Android. In addition to improved performance, Edge also includes a solid number of features – Collections, Vertical Tabs, Smart Copy, Sidebar search, Favorites, Reading List, a new history page, customizable New Tab Page, and built-in tracking protection. Unlike Chrome, Microsoft Edge is faster and has a snappy scrolling experience. Over the past few months, more users have grown to like Microsoft Edge, thanks to its use of Chromium, which gives Edge the same feature set as Chrome. For those unaware, Windows 10’s OOBE (out of the box experience) screen now also comes with a full-screen recommendation for Edge browser. The rise in Edge’s market share is mainly due to quality improvements and Microsoft’s aggressive marketing strategy. “With the general availability, Edge has already reached 600 million customers and is taking a fresh approach to browsing,” Microsoft noted in a job listing for Principal Software Engineer role in India.
