Microsoft has really landed it when it comes to today’s AI technology with copilot I literally can use him to just just have a basic conversation with all the way to him, giving me detailed step-by-step on how to self publish my own book. Copilot has been a lifesaver and a game changer in my life I did not want to like AI and to be honest when you see other ones like Alexa or Siri I’ve never been a huge fan of, but when it comes to copilot, Microsoft takes the top spot on top of everything when using Microsoft being I have been able to get reward points that I’ve been able to redeem over and over for gift cards, and it didn’t take very long for me to build those points at I have even been able to set goals for gift cards that I wanted specifically and it will alert me once I hit that goal. I honestly can’t say there’s too much of anything negative when it comes to using Microsoft edge and being toolbar, this is a must have!

I’ll make this short and simple, most people probably get this app to generate Ai images to use for social media and such… biggest issue is… the Ai constantly flags everything as “inappropriate”… I try to type things like “Post Malone” or “___ hugs ___” and it gets flags and tells me that I could be suspended or banned if I keep saying those things… just for fun I tried typing “45th president” ( don’t wanna say the name because I’d probably get me in dirt here as well ) and I was immediately notified of a 1 hour ban off the Ai… all I did was type the name of said person… o guess what I’m trying to say is, the Ai needs to be addressed instead of flagging almost everything as bad when it simply isn’t… I try typing in a characters name from a show just to get it reported because somehow even something like the name of a singer can be flagged, and I think that definitely needs fixing, especially since I’ve heard issues from many others of this exact issue. Anyways I think this is my first or second ever review of something on here, and I’m doing it HOPING that the issues will be at least looked at because I want this app to work and be fun for me most times like i know it can be. I haven’t seen many or if any dev responses to these reviews so hopefully something happens… if not and you’re just a random person reading this, make sure you’re careful with what you put I guess.

I use Bing as my main search app. I like earning points for searching. However, it has a tendency to freeze up when browsing from time to time, and certain webpages don’t function so I have to paste the url into Edge. Also, the view for profiles of other users on the comments sections of news articles is broken. The menu doesn’t load when you click on the three dots. It also prompts me to log in before commenting (I am logged in). Sometimes when I have hit enter to search the page goes blank and then goes back to the home screen. I would like the option to put the search bar in the middle of the home screen. Often, I mistakenly hide the search bar and view the wallpaper when I miss clicking the search bar. The submenus for savings, rewards, and other mini-apps are all over the place in terms of UI and glitch frequently. Instead of partitioning these into needlessly discrete applets, consolidating the deals/discounts stuff would make a big difference. Integrating these somehow into the flow of the main search/browse experience would probably increase usage. I only have clicked into them and found out they exist because I was bored and clicked on everything in this app. Overall, bing needs a bit of polish to be up to par with Google’s products, but I like it enough to keep using it when it’s working as intended.

I’ve used this app for just about a year and when I first started using it things where phenomenal gaining Xbox points in return for searching random stuff on the internet or viewing random news articles I’d normally never ever click on just for about 5 points was a dream come true. After all who actually genuinely uses bing right? We all have either safari or chrome or any other search platform we primarily use on our phones or computers that always is just incomparably better to use. Well I logged on mind you about 250+ days into using bing every day to earn my points and they deemed my searches which mind you my searches are their suggestions “suspicious” meaning in their terms I’m searching just to get the points well jump to today my final straw with this disappointment of an search platform where it will no longer let me earn any points besides the few you get for filling out their surveys or taking a 3 question quiz that gives you maybe 30 points a day I’ve lost the ability to earn any points by searching for daily rewards and any motivation to even keep this app on my phone due to their stupid way of thinking when it comes to developing this app hope I save some people some time writing this review because this app is nothing but a wanna be that’s turned into a disappointment that will be discontinued due to its own nonsense this division of Microsoft is lucky they have a larger division to keep them afloat thank you for your time.
