Reading list
From the old Edge I´m missing most is the Reading list function. I have used that from the beginning and it has been a lifesaver in my work. Please add it to this new Edge as well
Yeah that's my only grip with collections is that it does not work offline. This makes it unfeasible as a reading list replacement. Now, if they can make collections work in offline mode then we might have a contender for a reading list replacement but since collections is not exactly designed for that, I think having all your collections offline will not work very well.
Yes true. though you can export your collections to word or excel and keep them offline, but you know, it's just extra work, reading list would take care of this automatically.
Except not everyone has Word and Excel on all their devices. I'd have to test out if it actually downloads the entire web site (even when just a link is provided) when exporting. Something tells me it doesn't.
- If you tried a collection export you'd see that it always opens it in Word and Excel online, doesn't rely on installed versions of them.
You are aware that Word Online and Excel Online require an "ONLINE" connection. We are specifically talking about offline access which reading list provides. In addition, if we disregard the fact that this is related to offline situations, not everyone has access to Word Online and Excel Online either. So that still wouldn't fix the problem for everyone.
