At the edge of tweaking

Microsoft has updated the Dev channel of Edge with a new build 92.0.884.2. Also, the company made available Edge 91 Beta for Linux, and also noted that the Linux Dev build may be delayed due to undisclosed issues, or even cancelled.
The released Edge Dev build adds two new features, Guided Switch and Fit To Page and Print as Actual Size for Print Preview.
Here's how to enable Shopping Coupon Finder in Edge on Android, so the browser will be able to find shopping coupons for you.
Microsoft Edge and Google Chrome have lots of shared code under the hood, but what makes the former stand out are some additional features and conveniences. One of such things is a built-in coupon finder. This feature automatically scans a website for available but hidden coupons to save you quite a lot of money. After bringing shopping features to desktops, Microsoft is now working on an identical capability for mobile.
Moving Microsoft Edge from the legacy EdgeHTML engine to Chromium has fixed a variety of compatibility issues and bugs, especially with many popular websites optimized primarily for Chromium. Nowadays, Microsoft Edge no longer behind the most popular browser in terms of compatibility, but some weird bugs still surface from time to time. During the last two weeks, users have been reporting issues with YouTube playback in Microsoft Edge 90 Stable. According to numerous complaints, YouTube playback constantly crashes the entire browser when streaming videos.
Microsoft Edge on desktop has a built-in screenshot tool called Web Capture. Although Windows 10 has plenty of tools to create screenshots, Web Capture offers a unique option to create a long screenshot of the entire page. Now Microsoft wants to bring the same utility to mobile platforms.
Not long ago Microsoft announced an "Outlook" Smart Tile feature for the Edge browser, which is tied to your Outlook inbox folder and exposes new messages and events right on the New Tab page in the browser. This change goes live for a small select group of Inisders.
Not so long ago Microsoft brought the vertical tabs feature to its Chromium-based Edge browser. Currently, if you have multiple windows open with Vertical tabs enabled in all of them, to switch to horizontal tabs, you have to do it individually in each of the windows. Today's small addition resolves this inconvenience.
Not so long ago, Microsoft invited more insiders to test beta versions of the Edge browser on iOS using the TestFlight program. If you managed to get your "seat" in the beta test, there is a big new update to try. It bumps up the version from 46 to 91 with tons of improvements and new features.
These days, Microsoft Edge is no longer exclusive to Windows 10. You can use the browser from Microsoft on any modern Windows version (including now-unsupported Windows 7,) macOS, and even Linux. On the latter, though, Microsoft Edge is currently only available as a preview version.
You can now enable Web App Post-Install Dialog in Microsoft Edge.
While some developers are ditching progressive web app support in their browsers, Microsoft, Google, and others continue investing in this feature as more and more users embrace PWAs. A few versions back, Microsoft has added to Edge a new flag that slipped under our radars. It is responsible for an enhanced PWA installation experience that gives users a few useful options right after installing a web app.
You can enable or disable Automatic HTTPS for URLs in Microsoft Edge. The browser now includes a special option to control this behavior. There is a new flag that adds the Automatically switch to more secure connections with Automatic HTTPS setting, so you can turn it on/off or further configure it under Settings > Privacy, search, and services.
