Current issues I find testing Edge as a potential daily driver:
Windows:
- Right-click tab -> "Add tab / selected tabs to a new collection" (currently only all pages in the window)
- Home screen search bar is Bing only
- Simple color schemes for drifferent profiles (don't need/want fancy themes necessarily, just set color to top bar to keep profiles distinct)
- Collections -> Send to other targets (maybe SharePoint lists, OneNote, To Do?)
- Option to open new tab at the end of the line instead of next to current one
- Being logged in to my MS account for most services is Good. Having to be logged into them is Bad.
- Having to use Bing logged in and it not having a no history, no logs mode is Bad. I don't want my search history saved or associated with my accounts, even if I otherwise might like Bing as a search product. Being unable to separate Bing from my account and have it collect no history is an MS adoption blocker.
- OneNote web clipper is automatically associated with the MS account I use to sync and I can't associate it with a different one. This is undesirable. The web clipper being logged in with the account I'm using to sync Edge is a good default, not being able to change it to a different one is capital Bad.
- Option to choose which profile to open an external link with.
Android:
- Android platform issues are a big blocker for proper desktop adoption.
- Limited profile support (only one personal account, account shared with MS Launcher because ???)
- Apps should let me have as many accounts as I want and if they need content to include, choose which ones I want freely. Apps being one profile dominant is absurdly irritating.
- This and Bing are real adoption blockers for MS ecosystem apps. Different accounts on different platforms need to be a thing for it to be smooth. Powerful multiaccount support and separation/fusion by my own choice would make adopting a lot of MS apps easy, now many are blocked, eg. Edge, Office for Android, Launcher.
- MS apps fusing data from all accounts I'm using on a device is absurdly irritating. Let me choose what I see.
- Apps should let me have as many accounts as I want and if they need content to include, choose which ones I want freely. Apps being one profile dominant is absurdly irritating.
- UI. Needs option to keep UI visible when browsing, preferably for top and bottom bar separately.
- No Collections
- Hard to determine where a new Favourite will be saved.
- Can't edit image address. Have to copy it, and then enter it into the address bar, then edit it. Stupidly clunky workflow.
- Option to choose which profile to open an external link with.

Android:
Got Collections from the beta.
This seems like probably the best mobile tab/bookmark solution I have ever seen, at least as far as browsing existing collections goes.
Main fault is that when you open a site from a collection, the bottom bar doesn't let you delete a collection item. Have to expand it to get options on individual items.
Need:
Ability to move items between Collections
Notes in Collection items
I want an interface like this for tabs. Yesterday. The collections UI is amazing.
- DeletedJul 28, 2020Yeah, Notes in collections for mobile will be good, but the ability to move items will be tricky to add, they should add another option which asks users to which folder they would move the selected items, Whatever it is I'm excited to welcome the new features always!
