<h3>Key changes:</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>New Name and Icon:</strong> The app is now called the Microsoft 365 Copilot app, with a new icon to reflect this change.</li>
<li><strong>Enhanced Functionality:</strong> The app continues to serve as a productivity hub, allowing users to find, create, share, and collaborate in one place. The integration of Copilot introduces AI-driven features for tasks such as asking questions, creating content, drafting documents, and building agents.</li>
</ul>
<h3>How does this impact me?</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>A fresh look and feel:</strong> The user interface (UI) has been modernized for clarity and ease of use, including cleaner layouts, smarter menus, and a more consistent experience across apps. Helpful tip: Use the built-in walkthrough the first time you open the Copilot app &#8211; it’s a great way to get oriented.</li>
<li><strong>Updated URL:</strong> The web URL has been updated to m365.cloud.microsoft, with automatic redirects from office.com and microsoft365.com. So update those Bookmarks.</li>
<li><strong>Free access to Copilot chat:</strong> Users with a Microsoft 365 license or a Microsoft 365 Copilot license can access Copilot Chat at no additional cost.</li>
</ul>
