On both devices, I had to search a query through Bing first, and then I could tap the ‘Chat’ option to switch over to Bing Chat.Īlong with availability on iOS and Android devices, Bing Chat now supports voice input. That said, accessing Bing Chat wasn’t particularly straightforward. However, Bing Chat was available through Edge when tested on both the Pixel 7 and an iPhone XS as long as I was signed into my corresponding Microsoft account. In a new blog post, Microsoft said that Bing Chat is “available on iOS and Android today.” The blog post makes mention of the Bing mobile app and the Edge mobile browser, but in my brief testing, I wasn’t able to easily access it through the Bing app on my Pixel 7. Skype was unavailable for comment about its future integration plans.Just a couple weeks after Microsoft unveiled its revamped Bing with a new ‘Chat’ feature powered by an upgraded ChatGPT, the company is continuing its breakneck rollout by launching Bing Chat on mobile. Only a small portion of Facebook’s total global users currently have access, but a larger roll out should occur in the next few weeks, according to the report. Users will be able to make outbound calls to landlines and cellphones from within Facebook to Skype and vice versa. Skype’s vice president and general manager of products Neil Stevens told Fortune that he wants to see Skype move beyond just an application when it hits Windows Phones - with integration similar to Apple’s treatment of the Safari web browser or Skype’s upcoming video service with Facebook.Ĭonsumers are likely to see a greater emphasis on Skype’s partnership with Facebook, which adds a video chat function to Facebook. This is mainly due to restrictions on those devices that don’t allow third-party applications to access the mobile phone’s video processor or address book information. As a division of Microsoft, Skype will be able to gain much deeper integration that can’t be achieved on either iOS or Android. While Skype currently produces application support for both Apple’s iOS and Google’s Android devices, the company plans to offer something unique when it’s brought to Microsoft’s Windows Phone platform, according to the report.
