Math Solver is now a plug-in in Bing Chat and you can use it

Remember when Microsoft announced that it would deprecate a handful of useful features, such as Web Select, Citations, and Math Solver, on Edge not so long ago? Well, it seems that the Redmond-based tech giant is automatically adding Math Solver back to Edge, but in a different form.

According to the Windows enthusiast, @Leopeva64, who first spotted it, Microsoft automatically adds 3 new plug-ins in the Bing Chat pane, within Microsoft Edge. And guess what? Math Solver is one of them. The other two are Adobe Express and Spotify.

This doesn’t particularly come as a surprise, as we knew that Microsoft would bring these features back one way or the other. For now, it’s just Math Solver on Bing Chat, but it’s still something.

And it’s also curious that Math Solver is used as a plug-in in Bing Chat. It effectively adds an AI-enhanced base to Math Solver. This is exactly like we predicted when the deprecation was first spotted: Microsoft would find a way to bring them back with AI capabilities.

Math Solver, Citations, Grammar Tools on Bing Chat?

Well, it’s still too early to say so, but if Math Solver is back as a Bing Chat plug-in, maybe the other deprecated tool will come back, as well.

Citations could use some AI features, plus Grammar Tools could become a new Grammarly on Edge. With some AI capabilities, Grammar Tools could easily become one of the most used features on Edge, and beyond.

Especially if it’s released as a Bing Chat plug-in. If you remember, earlier this summer, Microsoft announced Bing Chat will come to other browsers as well. Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and even Opera users will be able to use this feature.

And if the Math Solver plug-in is any indication of the future plans for these deprecated tools, then Grammar Tools and Citations might be next on the list.

What do you think about it? Would you be excited to have them back?
