Top feedback summary for October 15
Thanks for the update,
Is there Any ETA for when the Edge developer team can make their decisions about the "Under Review" feature requests? most of them are very important to make the Edge browser different than Google chrome and unique.
The Acrylic/Transparent theme, Fluent language design for browser UI, Provide run/open/save/save-as for downloaded files etc.
.
Please Don't
1. Integrate the new Edge browser with Google in any way.
2. make the browser address bar smaller like Google chrome.
Please Do
1. make the browser UI Consistent, all the button should be square like the rest of the Microsoft products design.
2. Add Read Aloud for PDFs. currently only available for web pages.
3. Add an ability to auto scroll PDF files. when we are reading an article or book in PDF, the auto scroll would help so we don't need to use our mouse scroll all the time.
HotCakeX, please stop asking for squared design. See where Microsoft as a whole is heading towards. The UI is consistent with new design choices Microsoft is making throughout their products.

A lot of folks would disagree with you (myself included) but more importantly we shouldn't be telling others not to share the feedback they have on a post dedicated for feedback.

Currently in the Edge insider Canary toolbar, the bookmarks'/favorites' highlight animation shadow is circle while the rest of the shadow highlights are square (e.g the ellipsis menu, extension buttons, collections button, favorites button), that's called inconsistency.
the Edge classic has square UI but this circular UI is coming from google chrome and it's ruining Microsoft's design.
IMO Microsoft should implement their own Fluent Design system to the new Edge insider and get rid of these.
