Microsoft Edge now lets you add an Outlook Smart Tile to its new tab page
The new Outlook Smart Tile on Edge lets you quickly see your latest emails and create new events and emails.

What you need to know
- A new feature for Microsoft Edge brings an Outlook Smart Tile to the browser's new tab page.
- The Outlook Smart Tile shows your most recent emails and shortcuts to create a new email or event.
- You have to manually enable the feature from the new tab page on Edge Canary.
Microsoft Edge just got a new feature that makes it easier to keep track of your recent emails. On the new tab page of Microsoft's browser, you can now enable an Outlook Smart Tile. This tile shows your three most recent emails and shortcuts to create a new email or event.
To use the feature, you have to add Outlook as a website to Edge's new tab page. Outlook should appear as a suggestion when you click the "+" button to add a website. You will then have the option to enable the Outlook Smart Tile.
Microsoft announced the feature back in January, and it was spotted in action by Reddit user Leopeva64-2. The feature appeared for Leopeva64-2 on Edge Canary, but it's also available on the stable version of Edge, at least for some people. I have the option on Edge stable, but there's a chance that the feature is rolling out gradually.

Is this part of a PWA feature that others can also implement in their site?

So, it must be an edge feature and not an outlook feature. Nice.

Isn't it cool how the Edge team managed to nail how the News & Feed thing should have been in Windows in the first place?
I am somewhat disappointed in Panos. -
Is Edge going to replace Windows, what nonsense is this?
