Timeline for Phone
Another feature that mobile users will find handy. The April 2018 Update introduced Timeline on PCs,
making it easier to gain access to what you were working on. Now, this feature is available on your
phone, meaning you can scroll back in time to pick up where you left off while working on files and
browsing websites.
It is also possible to share or remove activities from a specific day or hour.
Microsoft Edge
The latest version of Edge focuses on improving reading, but also pays due
attention to the look and feel of the user interface. Microsoft also offers a bit
more customization — reading PDFs in the browser is now a more pleasant
experience, and there are several changes under the hood to improve the
technology.
For starters, Edge now comes with Microsoft Learning Tools baked in, and
the browser also offers support for themes and an offline dictionary that
serves up definitions of highlighted words.
You also get access to Grammar Tools that separate words into syllables
and highlights parts of speech to make it easier to understand. It is also
possible to have a word read aloud if you want to hear the correct
pronunciation or learn its meaning.
You can now decide whether web
videos should play automatically
on Advanced Settings > Media
autoplay. Using this new feature,
you can select the behavior
according to your preferences:
•Allow
•Limit
•Block
You’ll also find a new version of the learning tools for
Microsoft Edge available for Books and Reading View,
which now lets you choose from a variety of new page
themes and add wider spacing to improve reading fluency,
in the “Text options” tab.
To make it easier to identify the parts of speech, in the
“Grammar tools” tab, you can now change the color in
which the parts of speech should be highlighted as well as
enable a label right over it.
Also, the new line focus option, in the “Reading
preferences” tab, helps you to improve focus while
reading an article by highlighting sets of one, three, or five
lines.

Gaming
DirectX Raytracing is now fully supported on the platform, meaning users
no longer have to enable developer mode to see it in action. Raytracing is a
new rendering technique that not only improves image quality but has all
the potential to become the standard method for generating 3D worlds.
The Game Bar is now a dedicated app, making it easier to use
while also bringing a new look and new audio controls so you can
do more with your games with fewer interruptions.
Windows Mixed Reality
You can now stream audio to both the headset and the computer
speakers simultaneously.
In the Windows Mixed Reality experience, when using an
immersive application pressing the Windows key or using the
bloom gestures, Quick Actions allow users to easily Go Home,
view the time, or launch Mixed Reality Capture tools (Photo,
Video, and more).
Also, you will find a new Flashlight feature, which adds the ability
to peer into the physical world without the need to remove your
headset and prevent fumbles.
