I usually used chrome as my default browser but seeing this video makes me want to use Edge now. Thank you for sharing this information it really helps a lot. 😊

[@rano12321]

Immersive reader is better than any extension I could find for google chrome. It makes listening to articles a breeze.

[@jeffbrown66]

Another useful feature is Split Screen. I use this when viewing two web pages side by side.

[@axandraalex5869]

5:41 the one you just demonstrated wasn't OCR. OCR is when you select something from an image format and extract its text data. What you selected was already a text data from that website, it wasn't an image.

[@kenanarslan4644]

PDF Editor and Drop Tool are the best ones for me. Thank you

[@FlippedClassroomTutorials]

Thank you for sharing you favourites. I do agree the drop feature is incredibly helpful once you start using it!

[@SaiyanParmos]

Great post, I knew you could open PDFs and Edge but I did not know you can edit them. My favorite has always been read out loud I'll get PDF books and I'll just let Edge

[@mohamedsamy4418]

Too much useful 😊 thank you 🙏🏼

[@FlippedClassroomTutorials]

Great to hear that 👍

[@leriava]

Great tips. Thanks for sharing!

[@FlippedClassroomTutorials]

Thank you!

[@patugwu2]

Amazing video, and amazing tools.

[@FlippedClassroomTutorials]

Thanks! Which is your favourite?

[@AlitSaputra157]

I don't see grammar tools anymore on the immersive reader mode, did they remove it? Bing said so, but I just don't understand why they did it

[@polymy]

Thanks for another useful video. For me the PDF annotation and immersive reader make Edge my favourite browser for using on the interactive whiteboard - it works well with a stylus. One oddity I noticed was that ctrl Z didn't work with with annotations in my tests a few months ago, things may have changed since then. Of course you can just erase a mistake and start a new annotation.

[@FlippedClassroomTutorials]

Love the annotations and must say I agree with you when looking at responsiveness and my IWB.

[@jessejames4444]

I like the video, thank you!

[@FlippedClassroomTutorials]

Glad you like it

[@AMGJason]

I've been playing around with Edge lately. But I'm totally impressed with all the embedded features I wasn't even aware of, till I watched your video. Thanks again, very help tips to maximise productivity. Bye bye Chrome.

[@BrookeT9462]

I just started today

[@SonNguyen-bt9wd]

I am watching the video from the MS Edge :)

[@user-el1kn7zv6g]

Does Edge still have 'Make a Note'? The ability to mark up a webpage and save the webpage + annotations as a pdf?

[@RalfSiegesmund]

great tips

[@FlippedClassroomTutorials]

Thanks!

[@craigwelch3721]

awesome explanation!

[@FlippedClassroomTutorials]

Thank you!

[@heygabbybaby8187]

Very compact and useful. Will try using drop

[@dianekmk]

The OCR is not shown on mine. Could my admin have turned it off?

[@Ibrahim920]

As Associate Professor of Biology i need a software in which i can Generate edit Graphics for paper publications. Please make a good video like this one.

[@Ibrahim920]

You should be a brand ambassador of Edge

[@FlippedClassroomTutorials]

Haha! Thanks!

[@BusoKrenix]

OMG the PDF editor! All this time messing around with Adobe's BS and Edge has a built in tool.

[@FlippedClassroomTutorials]

Yes! All built in, and it eorks great. I'm glad you like it.

[@TheTastefulThickness]

There are browser based tools like ilovepdf and pdf candy as well that you can use.

[@rafpeeters9731]

Thx for the video. Didn't know edge can do so many things chrome can. Edge seems to be catching up. Nice to see my favourite edtech source (eric) as an example. Would it be fun to set up a battle of the browsers video?

[@FlippedClassroomTutorials]

Many great browsers are available! Most Chromium based, so yes, would be a lot of fun.

[@stephencooper3583]

Honestly, Edge caught up to and surpassed Chrome a while ago.

[@FlippedClassroomTutorials]

And it keeps getting better. What are your favourite features?

[@Ibrahim920]

Waooooooo amazing

[@baris_c]

is citation still alive? I cannot even find it on developer tools

[@user-gl9ew9hc3w]

No, this feature was removed in previous versions as unnecessary.

[@easternyellowjacket276]

Number one reason I physically uninstalled Edge: Restore Pages tab that pops up every....single....time I open the browser. It is an incredibly annoying PITA. And a major fail from MS. If anyone knows how to completely remove this feature, I'd consider redownloading Edge and using it. Until then...nope.

[@electrology]

The collections now show sponsored creators in them. I don't like that. How to have collections without those sponsored creator contents?

[@paul5324]

I tested this. If you add more and more collections, eventually the sponsored ones go away.

[@electrology]

@@paul5324 thank you. They removed the global media control. Without it, I prefer the UI of Firefox

[@wall-e7179]

Pity edge doesn't allow custom thumbnails for the homepage/speed dial. Such a basic thing to overlook. Instead you get tiny squares with random favicons and an extra searchbar I'll never use.

[@khushalyadav8965]

First comment for 1st view

[@liowyew]

Edge browser and Windows OS cannot be together

[@Wildcard2Kplus]

No i wont ! I was having Program Files\Edge_Bitsxxx folders popping up and seeing Flashes of my screen made And When i remove Edge like i did 24 hour's ago Where i used you have LOTS of those Folders created during that time NEVER running Edge? SO Not A SINGLE ONE ??? Oke so Edge SPY's on my screens Without me Ever running it ? I Don't Have a microsoft account So they never go anywhere

[@turkeyphant]

so basically half of these "features" are worse versions of pushbullet and sharex?

[@torch4x4]

Edge uses Chromium codebase and can run Chrome plugin extensions, other features like split screen or visual search are difficult to do with plugins in Chrome or other browsers or 3rd party apps

[@turkeyphant]

What's that got to do with what I said?

[@torch4x4]

@@turkeyphant That means No need for Pushbullet and ShareX anymore, but you can still use them optionally while using Edge, I can see a huge advantage instead of a "worst version" of something else

[@turkeyphant]

Er. Sharex isn't plug in. And Sharex is actually useful with a incredible feature set. This is like comparing paint with photoshop. And the point is why bake these into your browser for everyone who might not even want them and why reinvent the wheel (but worse)?

[@torch4x4]

@@turkeyphant All browsers are customizable now, you can use features or disable features, Sharex is dumb, this is comparing paint-AI with photoshop, because with Sharex you can do more but cannot do simple steps to get more, for instance to search images or translate what is inside an image real quick, also Sharex is not multiplatform, won't run on linux, a browser runs on multiplatform, capturing part of the screen with a browser and get browser options is something better than having tons of options but missing the most important

[@goofydog2960]

edge gave me 40 extra frames

[@Lu_vvv]

And all your data goes to Microsoft

[@FlippedClassroomTutorials]

As with any service online there is always a chance they will get/use your data. The same goes for Chrome, and any other service such as Social Media Platforms. Its a personal descision people make. If data and privacy is a real concern, have a look at Brave browser and the DuckDuckGo browser

[@patewilliam]

Imressive.

[@FlippedClassroomTutorials]

I'm glad you liked the video. What's your favorite Edge feature?

[@patewilliam]

Collections

[@KaivitiSingh]

Edge is a cheap "third-world-banana" poor quality browser with copied style ideas from Google Chrome. This browser is just about advertising Microsoft ... when you open a new tab it opens their own shit and there is no way to change that, got sick of it. I will stick with Google Chrome....
