We use one app to browse the web, another to manage our email, a third for music, and so on. Whether at home or at work, multitasking across multiple apps has become the new standard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While each app may be a finely tuned experience on its own, using them together tends to be anything but; unless you\u2019re an app windowing expert, multitasking between apps means frustratingly switching back and forth. And at Microsoft, we\u2019re constantly looking for ways to help you stay in your flow online, so you can multitask smarter with less disruption.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-msxcm-cta-block theme-dark\" data-moray data-bi-an=\"CTA Block\">\n\t<div class=\"card d-block mx-ng mx-md-0\">\n\t\t<div class=\"row no-gutters bg-gray-800 text-white\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-md-4\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"960\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/microsoft-365\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/09\/MSC21_Getty_home_707435373.jpg\" class=\"card-img img-object-cover\" alt=\"Laughing Black women hugging and using laptop.\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/microsoft-365\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/09\/MSC21_Getty_home_707435373.jpg 960w, https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/microsoft-365\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/09\/MSC21_Getty_home_707435373-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/microsoft-365\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/09\/MSC21_Getty_home_707435373-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/microsoft-365\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/09\/MSC21_Getty_home_707435373-293x195.jpg 293w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class=\"d-flex col-md\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"card-body align-self-center p-4 p-md-5\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2>Microsoft 365 Personal or Family<\/h2>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"mb-3\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Everything you need to achieve more in less time. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"link-group\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/microsoft-365\/buy\/compare-all-microsoft-365-products\" class=\"btn btn-link text-decoration-none p-0 text-light-blue\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span>Explore plans<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"glyph-append glyph-append-chevron-right glyph-append-xsmall\"><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, we\u2019re announcing a new way to help you stay focused with help from two Microsoft apps that many people use daily and consistently together\u2014the classic Microsoft Outlook app on Windows and the Microsoft Edge web browser. Coming soon, for customers with a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/microsoft-365\/buy\/compare-all-microsoft-365-products\">Microsoft 365 Personal or Family subscription<\/a>, you can choose to open browser links from the Outlook app in Microsoft Edge right alongside the email they\u2019re from in the Edge sidebar pane, so you can easily access, read, and respond to the message using your matching authenticated profile. No disruptive switching\u2014just your email and the web content you need to reference, in a single, side-by-side view. At this time, users or devices in managed environments will not see this change. And in the future, links from your Microsoft Teams messages will also open in Microsoft Edge to help you stay engaged in conversations as you browse the web.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"577\" src=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/microsoft-365\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/02\/Edge-1-1024x577.jpg\" alt=\"Article about AI cloud in Edge browser, next to the Outlook email it originated from displayed side-by-side using sidebar in Edge.\" class=\"wp-image-269280\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/microsoft-365\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/02\/Edge-1-1024x577.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/microsoft-365\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/02\/Edge-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/microsoft-365\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/02\/Edge-1-768x433.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/microsoft-365\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/02\/Edge-1-1536x866.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/microsoft-365\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/02\/Edge-1.jpg 1542w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Stay in your flow with Microsoft Outlook on Windows and Microsoft Edge<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Why are we making this change?

This allows you to check out the restaurants in your browser tab and respond to your friend with your restaurant pick, all within the same window.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-msxcm-cta-block theme-dark\" data-moray data-bi-an=\"CTA Block\">\n\t<div class=\"card d-block mx-ng mx-md-0\">\n\t\t<div class=\"row no-gutters bg-gray-800 text-white\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-md-4\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/microsoft-365\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/11\/MicrosoftTeams-image-19-1024x683.webp\" class=\"card-img img-object-cover\" alt=\"Woman sitting in kitchen working on 2-in-1 tabletin laptop mode.\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/microsoft-365\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/11\/MicrosoftTeams-image-19-1024x683.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/microsoft-365\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/11\/MicrosoftTeams-image-19-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/microsoft-365\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/11\/MicrosoftTeams-image-19-768x512.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/microsoft-365\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/11\/MicrosoftTeams-image-19.webp 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class=\"d-flex col-md\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"card-body align-self-center p-4 p-md-5\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2>Microsoft 365 apps<\/h2>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"mb-3\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Boost productivity with Microsoft Teams, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and more\u2014all in one place.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"link-group\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/microsoft-365\" class=\"btn btn-link text-decoration-none p-0 text-light-blue\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span>Get started today<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"glyph-append glyph-append-chevron-right glyph-append-xsmall\"><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>And we&#8217;re always optimizing the sidebar in Edge to give you useful content and tools while you&#8217;re browsing so you don&#8217;t have to toggle back and forth between windows or even other tabs\u2014whether you\u2019re shopping online or working in a Microsoft 365 web app.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-msxcm-kicker-container\">\n\t<div class=\" wp-block-msxcm-kicker-block wp-block-msxcm-kicker--align-left\" data-bi-an=\"Kicker Left\">\n\t\t<p class=\"wp-block-msxcm-kicker__title small text-neutral-400 text-uppercase\">\n\t\t\tMicrosoft Edge\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t<a\n\t\t\tclass=\"wp-block-msxcm-kicker__cta btn btn-link p-0 text-decoration-none\"\n\t\t\thref=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/edge\"\n\t\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t<span>Learn more<\/span> <span class=\"glyph-append glyph-append-xsmall wp-block-msxcm-kicker__glyph glyph-append-go\"><\/span>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Our goal at Microsoft is to empower you so you can make the most of your time.

You\u2019ll have the opportunity to choose your preferred browser for opening links from Outlook the first time you launch in Edge.

Of course, we will continue to listen to your feedback; if we learn from user experience that there are ways to make improvements, we will do so.&nbsp;Stay tuned for continued innovation as we find new and better ways to optimize the web for Microsoft 365 apps and more, so we can work smarter, not harder, together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Try <a href=\"https:\/\/go.microsoft.com\/fwlink\/?linkid=2225652\">Microsoft Edge<\/a> today.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Despite living in a connected world, the way we use our apps can often feel distinctly disconnected.
