If Microsoft wants to be competitive in browsers, they must make edge cross platform. It's a very capable browser and can hold its own against Chrome and Firefox. And it is continuously getting better. But if they keep it so tightly tied to windows 10, they are gonna have to discontinue it just like groove. I like to use edge on my laptop but there is no sync possible between my phone and it, because there's no edge for Android. Things like this keep people from adopting what is actually a good browser. Groove had the same problem. The app on desktop was pretty good, the service was pretty good, the app on Android was shit and not available in India.
If they continue like this we will soon see shutdown notices for Cortana, edge and others. A counterpoint is onedrive. They have excellent iOS and Android apps. The service is good in its own right. Onedrive ain't going anywhere.
TL;DR if you want to compete then compete.
