Major update in Microsoft Edge
As of v4.0, Browser Store Plus in Microsoft Edge now supports both the Chrome and Edge stores. The store can easily be switched using the Tab key or clicking the browser logo in the search bar. The UI will be updated to match the visuals of whichever store you're currently searching. Microsoft Edge users no longer need the Chrome extension, so feel free to uninstall it. This is a feature I've been super excited to add, and I finally figured out how to implement it. I'd love your feedback, so if you have any suggestions or experience any issues related to this update, please reach out at dev@jeremyw013.com.
Please note: As always, Edge submissions take significantly longer to be reviewed and approved than for Chrome and Firefox (around 7 business days). This release may not be available to Edge users immediately. Thanks for your patience.
