Share This Page?

The biggest feature I use with Edge is the "Share This Page" button to Share the Page via installed apps. Will this be brought over to the new Edge? Without it I have no reason to use the new Edge...

Thank you for the feedback Greg Rachocki, we are starting with the fundamentals, but work is continuing with our experience features. Please keep an eye out, and continue to let us know how we are doing.

It would be great if, when implemented, it could be implemented with a keyboard shortcut.

Thank you.

  the button itself is added in the Edge Canary with the same functionality from the old Edge (share with link, with installed apps, with Cortana etc), they'll probably add a shortcut for it too.
  
  I'm trying it on the latest Windows 10 version. sharing with Your Phone app allows me to send a URL and open it on my Android phone!

    Drew1903 HotCakeX Back home now, Thanks Mates for caring!
    
    Love that Share has been added! Have tested it for both email and "Your Phone" Both worked perfect, was great seeing the link open in Edge on my phone right to the item I sent....
    
    Now if we can add it to the top bar where it is in old edge that would be great. Right clicking it gives no options to move it/add it. Would like it up there with the fav button and the collections button....

Elliot Kirk I'll put in my vote also, the share feature was awesome. I'm sure it's probably lower down on the list and you guys will get to it.
