The AchieVer Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 Microsoft Edge Browser for Mac Gets a Dark Theme Microsoft has recently released a new update for the Mac version of its new Chromium browser, and this time the improvements are substantial for Apple users. The Chromium-powered Microsoft Edge browser is available on the Mac in preview stage as part of Canary and Dev channels, and just like on Windows 10, Microsoft tries to roll out improvements for both of them regularly. The most recent update for the Dev build, which brings the browser to version 76.0.176.1, introduces a dark theme for macOS computers. At this point, however, this isn’t yet a fully-featured theme, meaning that there still are some parts of the browser that don’t follow the new mode. However, Microsoft says the dark visual style will be further refined in the coming updates, so sooner or later, the browser should feature a complete dark theme just like its Windows sibling.Edge on Apple’s own platformWhile Microsoft Edge is clearly improving on Macs as well, the bigger challenge for Microsoft is to convince Apple users to give up on Safari for its own browser. The new Edge comes to macOS with the same feature capabilities as Google Chrome, and the software giant hopes the rich collection of extensions, as well as its improved features, would be reason enough for Apple users to at least give its app a try. Right now, however, Edge is still a work in progress, but it does show that Microsoft is very committed to expanding beyond the Windows world with as many apps as possible. There’s no ETA as to when Microsoft Edge is projected to reach the stable channel on macOS, but the software giant obviously has no reason to hurry up on this, especially as finalizing the browser on Windows 10 is the top priority for the company.
