User reviews

Chrome extension works for google search on Edge browser. Britannica Insights Edge extension does not work for bing searches.

It seems that this extension only works on Google Chrome but it doesn't seem to work on Microsoft Edge. Any bugs?
by Victor, 2021-02-24

It's okay, the search sites like bing and google already provide most of the detail this does. When you click on theirs to get more well you need to be a paid member to get more.
