Spotted by
eagle-eyed users, the Copilot application quietly landed on December 19 on the Google Play Store, offering a simplified experience to AI enthusiasts. Currently, there is no listing on iOS for this
app, however, Bing for iOS remains an option.
Although no login is required, anonymous users face a daily limit of five shorter prompts and responses, which can be unlocked by signing in with your Microsoft account. The connection allows unlimited queries and opens the door to image generation, turning your phone into a mini art studio powered by DALL-E 3.

While the Copilot feature may seem familiar, it's much more than just Bing AI in disguise. This app ditches the clutter of web search and focuses solely on AI-driven interaction. Ask complex questions, get simplified explanations or ask Copilot to write creative texts of any kind: everything is at your fingertips. And the best? It includes text, images, and even voice prompts, making interaction natural and intuitive.

Microsoft is on a mission to integrate this AI powerhouse everywhere, from Windows 11 to Bing. This dedicated app could be the next step in its evolution, positioning Copilot as a standalone digital assistant that thrives beyond the confines of web browsers.
Offering this application for free, while bundling GPT-4 and DALL-E 3, is a bold move on Microsoft's part. Currently, using the free version of OpenAI's ChatGPT only gives you access to the GPT-3.5 model and will cost you $20/month to upgrade to the Plus plan which unlocks GPT-4 and DALL-E.
So if you're looking for a taste of next-gen AI on your phone, look no further than Microsoft's Copilot app. It's free, it's powerful, and it's just getting started. The future of AI assistance is here, and it fits right in your pocket.
