Microsoft Edge Can Now Switch Profiles in PWAs

Microsoft has just announced that Microsoft Edge now supports switching profiles in PWAs. The feature is now available for all users, as long as they are running the browser on Windows 10 May 2020 Update or newer.

As you probably know already if you’re a Microsoft Edge user, the browser already allowed easy switching between profiles when loading websites for work and personal accounts, but now the company has enabled the same functionality in web apps too.

PWAs are becoming increasingly important for Windows 10 users, especially as they help deal with the lack of apps in the Microsoft Store. At the same time, more and more companies are adding PWA support for their websites, including search giant Google.

Earlier this month, Google has officially started offering a YouTube web app to users loading the website, and it’s believed the company is also working on adding offline functionality.
