Choose colors that work best for you

High contrast can make a difference. Page Colors lets you adjust text and background colors for better readability.

Adjust text for better legibility

Readability of text on websites can vary. Immersive Reader declutters the content of a webpage and allows customization of text size, spacing, and background colors to enhance visibility.

Quickly enlarge images without extra clicks

Need a closer look? Magnify in Microsoft Edge lets you see enlarged images without needing to download a file or open it in a new tab.

Ensure scrollbars are always easy to find

Some websites make scrollbars harder to see. Turning off Custom Scrollbars keeps them clearly visible for easier navigation.

Get descriptions for images

Unfortunately, not all images on the web come with alt text. Automatic Image Descriptions in Microsoft Edge generates descriptions of unlabeled images for your screen reader, helping you understand visual content.

Mobility

Enhance your browsing efficiency

Use Copilot in Microsoft Edge to speak with an AI assistant that can help in gathering whatever information you might need from the web.

Complete forms quickly and easily

Entering your details each time you shop or log into a website can be time-consuming. Edge securely stores and autofills your addresses, emails, passwords, and payment information for convenience.

Navigate without a mouse

Browse the way you prefer, without letting clicking and scrolling slow you down. Keyboard navigation lets you traverse your browser using only the keyboard while caret browsing adds a blinking cursor to webpage text, allowing you to select and interact like in a document.

Language

Understand complex content more easily

Have a question or complex content you want help understanding? With Copilot in Microsoft Edge, you can type or even speak to Copilot in your preferred language.

Hear text pronounced aloud

Facing challenges with pronunciation? Read Aloud offers the functionality of vocalizing text, helping you learn how words sound in different languages.

Separate your work with ease

Juggling multiple projects? Workspaces let you save groups of tabs, making it easy to switch between tasks without losing track. And since your workspaces sync to the cloud, your tabs will always be right where you left them.

Kickstart tasks without the mental block

Struggling to get started? Copilot in Microsoft Edge helps you brainstorm ideas, get feedback, and summarize content—giving you the boost you need to take action.

Organize tabs your way—or let Edge do it for you

Browsing multiple topics at once? Tab Groups help you stay organized by letting you manually name and color-code tabs, keeping related pages together and reducing clutter. Prefer a hands-off approach? Organize Tabs uses AI to automatically group related pages, so you can stay focused without the extra effort.

Working Memory

See more, switch less

Constantly jumping between pages can cause mental fatigue. With Split screen, you can view two tabs side by side, making it easier to compare information and stay on task.

Keep your favorite tools in reach

Need quick access to your go-to tools? Sidebar keeps them in one place, so they’re always within reach without having to dig through menus.

Pick up right where you left off

Ever worry about losing an important set of tabs? Workspaces automatically saves your tabs and groups, so everything is right where you left it—no need to start over.

Reduce the stress of juggling multiple pages

Too much to track across too many tabs? Tab Groups let you visually organize your pages, so you can keep related content together and find what you need faster.

Process information faster with less effort

Dense, long pages can be overwhelming. Copilot in Microsoft Edge distills content into key points, making it easier to absorb what matters most.

Reading & Writing

Customize your reading experience

Reading should feel comfortable, not frustrating. Immersive Reader lets you adjust text size, spacing, background colors, and more—so you can read in a way that works best for you.

Worry less about typos and grammar

Spelling and grammar mistakes can make writing tricky. Microsoft Editor catches errors in real time, while text predictions suggest words as you type—helping you write faster and with fewer interruptions.

Listen while you read

Read aloud turns text into speech, helping you follow along and absorb information in a way that works best for you.

Attention & Focus

Tame tab overload

Having too many tabs open at once can be distracting. Tab Groups help you stay organized by keeping related tabs together—so you can focus on one topic at a time.

Hone in on what’s most important

No time for fluff? Copilot in Microsoft Edge condenses content and highlights key points, so you can get the information you need, without the extra noise.

Split your screen, not your attention

It can be easy to lose focus when going back and forth between tabs. Minimize distractions and multitask more efficiently with side-by-side screens within a single browsing tab with Split screen in Microsoft Edge.

A cleaner view for better reading focus

Websites can be cluttered and filled with distractions that make it hard to concentrate. Immersive Reader simplifies your screen so you can read with fewer interruptions.

Skip reading and listen instead

Reading isn’t always the easiest way to absorb information. With Read aloud in Microsoft Edge, you can listen to text in web pages, PDFs, and documents—letting you take in content audibly instead of visually.
