Here's what's new in Windows 10 Mobile build 14267
Windows 10 Mobile build 14267 has just started making its way out to Windows Insiders on the Fast Ring, which means there are some new goodies to look forward to. The latest build brings the mobile preview up to the same build as the PC preview, and includes new features for Cortana, Microsoft Edge and more. Here's the breakdown of what's new:
- Search for music easier in Cortana: We have made it easier to invoke music search in Cortana by adding a music search icon to the top right of Cortana. You can now open Cortana on your PC and click on the music search icon to have Cortana listen and search for the song that's playing.
- Word Flow now works in the address bar in Microsoft Edge on your phone: For fans of Word Flow, we heard your feedback, and we have re-enabled the ability to use shape writing in the address bar in Microsoft Edge on your phone!
- Open InPrivate tabs more easily in Microsoft Edge on your phone: We take the need for private browsing seriously, and InPrivate has been a feature of Microsoft Edge in Windows 10 Mobile from day one. However, we received feedback from Windows Insiders that the InPrivate feature was either hard to find or missing on their phones. As a result, we've moved the button to create a new InPrivate tab to appear right next to the new tab button. The next time you need a private tab in Microsoft Edge, you'll find it right in your tabs view. Try it out on your phone and let us know what you think.
- Improved Download Prompts in Microsoft Edge: Microsoft Edge will now show a prompt when you start a download, allowing you to cancel unwanted downloads.
Keep in mind that, since this build is on the development branch, it's currently only available for Fast Ring Insiders using a Lumia 950, 950 XL, 550, or Xiaomi Mi4. For more, see Microsoft's full blog post at the source link below.
