During the holiday season, Microsoft discreetly launched its Copilot app on Android, iOS, and iPadOS. This app provides users with access to Copilot, which was previously known as Bing Chat, functioning similarly to OpenAI’s ChatGPT.
Like other AI chatbots, users can input questions or prompts and receive AI-generated responses. Copilot's capabilities enable users to draft emails, write stories or scripts, summarize complex documents, create personalized travel itineraries, craft job resumes, and much more. Additionally, the app features an Image Creator powered by DALL·E 3, allowing users to experiment with new styles, curate social media content, develop brand aesthetics, design logos, create custom backgrounds, build portfolios, and visualize film and video storyboards.
The app’s description highlights, “By merging the power of GPT-4 with the creative potential of DALL·E 3, Copilot not only elevates your design workflow but also inspires your creativity like never before.”
Since its holiday debut, Copilot has been downloaded over 1.5 million times worldwide across both Android and iOS, according to data from mobile intelligence provider data.ai.
With Copilot, users gain free access to OpenAI’s GPT-4 technology, a notable offering since OpenAI's own GPT app utilizes GPT-3.5 technology and charges for access to GPT-4.
This mobile launch follows the rebranding of Bing Chat to Copilot back in November. Before the mobile launch, similar functions were available via the Bing Chat feature in the Bing app. While it remains uncertain if Microsoft intends to replace the Bing app with Copilot, no official announcements have been made regarding this transition.
Additionally, the launch of Copilot on mobile complements its existing web availability. With this new release, Microsoft aims to position Copilot as a standalone service and broaden its accessibility even further.
Microsoft expands Copilot to Windows 10.
