Tab Searches on Mobile
I am on build 11.7.28247601, OPALAND.
I am unable to get screen captures. Bing appears to be blocking them. I get an error saying, "Unable to capture screenshot. Prevented by security policy". I am able to capture screenshots of other apps as well as the "desktop". Why does Bing block screenshots?
Thanks...
HeyU-notU-U, interesting. I don't run into that error when I take a screenshot. What device are you using?

Hey Alyxe ... thank you very much for the great news! Any idea how soon? Thanks, again!
- AlyxeMar 22, 2021MicrosoftHeyU-notU-U I just got word back. Looks like the multiple tab feature will be coming back soon!

Alyxe Thanks for keeping it on your radar. I have a Samsung Galaxy S5 running Android 6.0.1 (don't laugh).
And, yes, you are correct...
Both my wife and I use the Bing App. We both were able to use tab browsing in the Bing App until my wife updated her Bing App. Now she cannot use tab browsing on the Bing App, but I can.
Thanks!
- AlyxeMar 22, 2021MicrosoftHi HeyU-notU-U I'm still working on this! If you could confirm your device type and operating system that would be extremely helpful. Thanks!
I also want to recap to make sure we're both on the same page:

I'm sorry...thought you were trying to solve the screenshot issue.
Her phone is a Samsung A21 running Android 10.
I'll work on the screenshots later and get them to you when I figure it out.
Thanks!

HeyU-notU-U I can submit your feedback to the developers. However, knowing which device or at least the operating system you're using would give them a frame reference for your version number.
Also, without knowing your device type or operating system I can't speak towards the issue you're experiencing with screenshots.Alyxandria (she/her)

Alyxe maybe we're getting off in the weeds? The issue is about missing Search Tabs and Restaurant button.
Is there something about my description of what she did that doesn't make sense? If so, I'll try to clarify.
I don't have time right now, but I'll see if I can figure out the screen shot issue later. I'll send them when I get it figured out.
In the mean time...let's see what we can do about getting the Search Tabs and Restaurant button back.
