Microsoft Edge Testing Apple Account Sign-In Support

Microsoft Edge Testing Apple Account Sign-In Support

Microsoft is testing support for signing into its Edge browser using your Apple Account, potentially eliminating the need for a Microsoft account. Two new flags related to the feature were spotted by MacMagazine in the latest Edge Canary build, with the feature also rolling out to Edge Beta users.

What the Flags Reveal

One flag enables Apple Account sign-in for Edge profiles, while the other adds an Apple sign-in button to the profile menu, where a Google Account sign-in option already exists. This suggests that Apple Account sign-in will work alongside the existing Google sign-in option.

Rollout Details

In its release notes for Edge Beta 152, Microsoft already lists Apple Account sign-in support for Windows and macOS, but describes it as a "controlled rollout," so there may be some delay before all beta users see it.

This move would allow users to access Edge features and sync their browsing data without creating a separate Microsoft account, streamlining the sign-in process for Apple users.
