Microsoft announces the arrival of Edge for iOS and Android tablets after a good reception in the smartphone market

One of the secrets that can underpin the success of an application today is to have a version for different operating systems Thus We have seen how the best-known offer multiplatform versions for iOS, Android, Windows, MacOS... You cannot be outside of other ecosystems if you want to succeed.

They know it very well at Google and not so much at Apple (they may think they don't need it) and at Microsoft they follow in the wake of the former, offering their applications better known on the other major platforms, including mobile now that Windows Phone has passed away.And one of those trying to gain a foothold and stand up to the competition is Microsoft Edge.

Microsoft's browser was available for iOS and Android but in a small screen format, that is, tablets were left aside. And since it is a type of device in which the browser becomes even more important how can we not be present?

And said and done. Microsoft today announced the arrival of its Edge browser for tablets equipped with iOS and Android, a browser that can already be downloaded from Google Play and the App Store and that It is adapted to the largest number of inches of these screens ( although the line with the previously called _phablets_, now normal _smartphones_, is increasingly diffuse).

Microsoft Edge can now be downloaded from Google Play and the App Store after the launch in October of a first version in beta for the two major operating systems.
