So you have a library of Internet Explorer (WP8.1) or Edge bookmarks/favourites, and you'd like to bring them with you onto a brave new platform? It's part of the mental equation, at least, in terms of keeping the best of the old with the best of the new. There are various ways and means to migrate hundreds of favourite URLs, but with the latest iOS 14 beta (the full release coming in a few weeks), you can now use Edge itself on an iPhone. Yes, complete with signing into your Microsoft account and having access to favourites, browsing history, etc. In theory even from Windows phones. So it's not now just Android which can mimic some of what you had on Windows 10 Mobile...

Apple announced in June at the virtual WWDC that it will allow users to set third party browsers as their default web browser in iOS 14. This is currently at 'beta 8', I have a device on this track. Note that Microsoft has also now updated its Edge preview app with support for setting Microsoft Edge as a default browser on Apple iOS 14. Google Chrome is another option, of course. Ubiquitous things just got even more ubiquitous...

If you are running the latest iOS 14 beta, you can download the Microsoft Edge browser here.

So, taking advantage of the battery life, speed, imaging, and so on, of the latest iPhones, you can also run Edge, Office, Outlook, OneNote, OneDrive, and so on. We're getting to the point where the underlying OS and hardware fade into the background while we run the apps and services we want.
