Just one day after Microsoft announced its new Edge browser and updated Bing search engine that integrates a ChatGPT experience via OpenAI, the company has seen a huge burst of demand. The Bing app and Edge browser for iOS have shot to the top of the App Store charts.

Microsoft’s search engine Bing has updated its iPad app to offer instant translation of webpages, and the ability to display trending stories and the image of the day in the Notification Center. The app could previously translate via a Safari extension, but can now do so within the app.
The iPhone app also got a visual refresh, with a swipe-up ‘popular now’ tab at the bottom and the ability to swipe through a choice of background images for the app’s homescreen.
Bing and Yahoo are both reportedly making a bid to become the default search engine for iOS when Google’s contract expires next year.
Both iPhone and iPad apps are a free download from iTunes.
