This tutorial will show you how to use Copilot Vision in Microsoft Edge and in the Copilot app on Windows 11.
Copilot Vision on Windows lets you share any browser or app window on your screen and talking about it with Copilot. Copilot can then help analyze, offer insights, or answer your questions, coaching you through it aloud. Copilot can hear your voice and respond like a friend in a conversation. This requires the Copilot app update (version 1.25034.133.0 and higher) rolling out across all Insider Channels via the Microsoft Store. Copilot Vision on Windows will first roll out to Insiders in the U.S., and file search will roll out to Insiders worldwide. Not all Insiders will get the update right away.
Microsoft Copilot Vision is a new way to have AI work with you as you navigate the web in Microsoft Edge. When you activate Copilot Vision, it uses voice to answer questions about what the page you are reading and can suggest what to do next.
