There is an upcoming improvement to the “Find on Page” feature in Microsoft Edge. This enhancement aims to make it easier for users to search for specific words on a webpage by moving the feature from the three dots menu to a more accessible sidebar. As seen onTwitter, the new sidebar will display sentences containing the search term, enhancing the feature’s usability. Canary had another trial last week with a button thatenables the export of browsing data in Edge to a CSV file.

Find on page in the sidebar now shows you the sentence that contains the term you are looking for, this is available in Edge Canary:https://t.co/mZvsBWWZ6t.https://t.co/MU51tC5Cky.https://t.co/crfBgenwMOpic.twitter.com/B8Xdhtjk5O

This change is currently available in the Canary channel of Microsoft Edge, an experimental browser version. It might take some time before the new feature makes its way to the stable release of Edge.

This improvement appears to enhance the user experience of searching for content within a webpage in Microsoft Edge.
