News Synopsis

By adding AI-powered Bing to the taskbar in the Windows 11 update, users may access information without having to browse individual search results.

Apple iPhones are now supported by the Phone Link app, allowing users to view and operate their phones from their Windows Pc

Microsoft has released the Windows 11 Moment 2 update, which adds features including a Bing search engine powered by artificial intelligence, third-party widgets, a new screen recorder, and more. The update will be widely accessible in March as a required component of the 'Patch Tuesday' update package, however, it is presently only available as an optional download. The Windows 11 Moment 2 update has the following noteworthy features.

As OpenAI's language model was integrated into Bing search, it was anticipated that Microsoft would eventually add these functionalities to Windows. Bing has been integrated with Windows' search engine as of the introduction of the Windows 11 Moment 2 update, enabling users to locate information without having to view individual search results. Unfortunately, only a few users who have been approved for the initiative are currently able to use the new Bing. The new search experience won't be available on all Windows devices right away, so expect a wait.

Users can manage and access their phones from their Windows PCs using the Phone Link app from Microsoft. Formerly exclusive to Android devices, the software is now also accessible to iOS users via the Windows Insiders programme. Presently, iPhone users can make calls from their PC and view their text messages and contacts. But, future updates may include the addition of new functions like managing photographs and responding to group talks.

Microsoft has received several requests from users to support third-party apps on Windows 11. The business has finally taken consumer feedback into consideration and made its platform available for widget development by outside app developers. While some well-known apps, such Spotify, Xbox, and Messenger, have previously produced widgets, the decision is anticipated to encourage other developers to do the same now that any Windows developers can do so.

Via its most recent update, Microsoft added a new screen recording feature to the Snipping Tool. Up until now, the capability was exclusively accessible through the Xbox app and had just a few restrictions, such as not supporting desktop or minimized app recording. The improved Snipping Tool function, however, gets beyond these restrictions, making it a great tool for writing tutorials or disseminating material.

With Microsoft's most recent update, customers may improve their video conference experience by utilizing cutting-edge AI features like voice focus, backdrop blur, eye contact, and automated framing. A more user-friendly experience is provided by the update, which also makes it simpler to locate and modify Windows Studio Effects settings right from the taskbar under fast settings.
