In its Microsoft Chromium Edge top feedback summary updated on March 31, Microsoft has listed three feedback items as addressed. The most important for many will be the support for other search providers than Bing in the search bar on the new tab page.

This and other two features are now available for everyone in Dev and Canary channels. Bing search bar can be hidden now on the new tab page. A custom URL can also be set for a new tab instead of showing the new tab page.

We are really excited to announce that the new tab page items we started rolling out earlier this month are now available to all in our Dev and Canary channels. This means we are marking these all as Addressed today:

  • Add an option to hide the Bing search bar on the new tab page
  • Allow the search bar in the new tab page to be configured with other search providers
  • Provide an option to set a custom URL for a new tab instead of showing the new tab page
