Quick Guide

Easily mark up and share web pages
Only Microsoft Edge has the built-in technology that lets you write or type directly on webpages. Add your
thoughts on the page and then easily share it with others or save to OneNote. Transform any webpage into your
canvas with Microsoft Edge.
Best reading. No distractions.
Microsoft Edge delivers the best built-in reading experience. A new reading view option lets you enjoy online
articles in a distraction-free layout optimized for your screen size. You can also have any webpage or PDF file
saved and organized in your reading list for convenient access later.
Find it faster
In a big improvement over typical address bars, Microsoft Edge makes recommendations to speed you to your
online destination. You can also get quick answers for weather, stock, definitions, and calculations – even the most
popular fun facts like ―How tall is the Eiffel Tower?‖ – right from the address bar.
Get more done with Cortana built in
Microsoft Edge lets you move quickly from browsing to doing. With Cortana enabled, you get instant access
to key actions – like making reservations or reading reviews – without leaving the page you‘re on. You can
also highlight an unfamiliar term to get a contextual explanation that doesn‘t take you away from where you are.
*Cortana available in select markets at launch, experience may vary by region and device.
