Microsoft's 'super app' merge kills Copilot double icons
microsoft merges its copilot apps into one interface for mobile, web, and desktop to fix confusing fragmentation, killing features like podcasts and deep research.
microsoft has begun rolling out a unified 'microsoft copilot' app that combines the consumer chat and image generation capabilities with microsoft 365 business tools, replacing the previously fragmented app experience. available for mobile, web, windows, and mac, the update eliminates duplicate system tray icons and creates a technical foundation for a planned 'super app' later this year. while core functionality remains free, features like podcasts, deep research, and group chats are being retired immediately, and user data remains strictly separated between personal and enterprise accounts.
