Microsoft is combining its Copilot apps ahead of a ‘super app’

Details

Microsoft is unifying its two Copilot applications into a single Microsoft Copilot app, with mobile and web rollout beginning mid-August and Windows/Mac following in mid-September. Existing chats and content migrate automatically; personal and work accounts remain separate within the unified interface. Enterprise security and compliance controls are unchanged. The consolidation eliminates the confusing dual-icon problem in Windows taskbars. Two features are being discontinued: Podcasts and Deep Research end on August 18th, and Group Chat threads will not carry over to the unified app. Core Copilot features remain free, though usage limits may vary. Microsoft describes this as a technical milestone ahead of a more ambitious Copilot super app planned for later in 2026—though no details on what that super app will add beyond the current unified experience have been shared.
