![]() Microsoft Edge isn’t just for desktop and laptop use, either. ![]() Photography / Shutterstock) Microsoft Edge on iOS and Android It’s unstable and not recommended for use as your everyday web browser, but it provides access to new upgrades as they’re being worked on. The Canary Channel is updated every night automatically. It’s not stable, so there will be bugs, but it’s the ‘safest’ way to see some of the forthcoming bleeding-edge features. The Dev Channel sees weekly updates and is the first place to test features that have been tested and verified by the Microsoft Edge team. It’s also the last channel to receive a new build before the stable release is pushed out. The Beta Channel is the most stable and gets a major update every six weeks. Microsoft Edge has Beta, Developer, and Canary channels, and they’re all available to the public to test at their leisure. All of these channels mimic the Google Chrome channels, which is hardly surprising since both browsers rely on upgrades to Chromium as well as their own individual changes. If you like to live on the Edge (see what we did there) then there are three ‘Insider’ channels for Microsoft Edge that allow users to test preview versions of the browser. To try any of these newer builds you simply need to visit the Microsoft Edge Insiders portal.
