To get started, just type your message and send it. Alternatively, in select markets, you can click the microphone button and just say what you're thinking.
To improve your overall experience, consider trying the following:
Use natural language and interact as if you're talking to a friend. The more you converse naturally, the better Copilot can understand your needs and provide tailored assistance. This approach helps Copilot learn your preferences and deliver an even more engaging and helpful experience throughout your conversations.
Ask questions and follow up. Copilot provides direct answers and remembers your follow-up questions to give meaningful replies. Whether you want to learn more, the answer to be reframed or question the response, Copilot will respond with the context in mind.
Ask Copilot to rephrase responses. Just say something like “could you explain that in layman’s terms?”, “could you put that in simpler terms?” or “could you explain that like I’m a beginner?” and Copilot will reply with an answer that’s easier to understand.
Ask for different formats. Would you prefer to see an answer as a list or table? Just ask.

Using Image Generation
-
Image generation gives you the ability to create new images via text prompts or edit images which are generated or uploaded.
-
To generate an image, ask Copilot to generate an image to your liking. For example: "create an image of a cute puppy". Once an image is created you can ask Copilot to make edits or changes.
-
Images generated or uploaded to Copilot are available for 30 days. This includes any thumbnails, which remain publicly accessible for the same duration. After this time, images and thumbnails are deleted from our system. You can always visit to delete your conversation history sooner. Click here.
-
Images are used by Copilot for the sole purpose of helping you have engaging conversations and make modifications to images based on your requests. At this time Microsoft does not use any images for training or secondary use.
-
All images you upload for editing using Copilot Image Generation should be original images that you own or have the rights to use. Do not upload images that infringe third-party rights (including copyright, trademark or publicity rights), violate the privacy of others, include depictions of individuals without consent or otherwise violate the Microsoft Services Agreement and Copilot Code of Conduct. You are solely responsible for the images you upload. Your account or Copilot usage may be restricted or suspended if we detect an attempt to upload illegal content.
-
The latest model creates highly accurate and detailed images, which may require a few minutes.

Copilot Vision and Recall are different features with different goals in mind:
Vision works strictly in the context of what you have chosen to share for that Vision session (a site in Edge, an app in Windows, your camera on Copilot mobile). You can turn this feature on when you want Copilot's assistance with something you have open. The only memory that Copilot will have of what you conversed about will be the transcript of your conversation that is saved to your chat history. You can delete your chat history at any time. Screenshots, audio and context are not stored by Copilot.
Recall is a feature that will only be supported on Copilot+ PCs. For Copilot+ PC users who opt in, Recall takes encrypted snapshots of a user's PC screen across apps, websites, images or documents. Snapshots are then locally stored and locally analysed on the user's device. Recall will operate like the user's own virtual, private “photographic memory” on their Copilot+ PC. Learn more at Privacy and control over your Recall experience – Microsoft Support.
