Microsoft has released a beta version of the updated Cortana app for Windows 10, featuring a brand-new chat-based User Interface allowing users to type or speak natural language queries.
The company is testing a new chat-based UI for Cortana on Windows 10 PCs. The new beta app is now available to testers, and it supports text and voice queries, it is reported.
In addition to most of the existing Cortana features, the app also supports light and dark themes in Windows, a less intrusive screen for “Hey Cortana” queries, new speech and language models, and better performance.
This new feature is currently being rolled out to Insiders in the US with more regions becoming available at a later date.
This Cortana app is available in the latest Fast Ring preview of Windows 10, build 18945. It will eventually debut to all Windows 10 users in the first half of 2020, the report added.
