Microsoft has introduced a powerful new update to Copilot Vision AI, allowing it to view and scan your entire desktop in real time. This upgrade turns Copilot into a smarter assistant that can help while you’re working, browsing, creating, or gaming—just by looking at your screen.
Here’s what’s new, how it works, and where it’s available.
What’s New in Copilot Vision AI
The latest version of Copilot Vision (v1.25071.125 and above) brings major improvements:
Featured
- Full desktop access: It can now see everything on your screen, from open apps to browser windows.
- Live help: It gives real-time suggestions and answers while you’re working.
- Voice support: You can talk to Copilot, and it will guide you through tasks.
- Click-to-activate: You control when it starts by clicking a glasses icon in the Copilot app.
This means you can get help editing a resume, designing something, or understanding what’s on your screen without typing a single word.
How It Works
Copilot Vision is built with user privacy in mind.
- You must turn it on manually.
- It works like a screen share, not like Microsoft’s Recall tool that saves screenshots.
- You can stop it anytime by clicking “Stop” or closing the session.
You’re always in control of what it can see.
Where It’s Available
Here’s a quick look at where and how the update is rolling out:
| Feature | Details |
|---|---|
| Who gets it | Windows Insider Program users |
| Region | Only in the United States |
| Systems supported | Windows 10 and Windows 11 |
| Not yet available in | India and most other countries |
Microsoft plans to expand this feature to more regions in the future.
How You Can Use It
Copilot Vision has many helpful real-world uses:
- Resume help: Highlight your resume, and Copilot suggests ways to improve it.
- Gaming guidance: Get quick help while playing a new game.
- Creative tips: Get ideas to improve your design, writing, or artwork.
- Web support: Get help filling out forms or understanding web content.
You don’t need to switch tabs or copy-paste—just ask Copilot while it looks at your screen.
What’s Coming Next
Microsoft wants to make Copilot more than just a web tool. Future updates may include:
- Support for phone cameras will enable Copilot to respond to queries based on what it observes through your mobile device.
- Deeper Windows integration will enable it to assist with files, settings, and daily tasks.
- The comprehensive AI assistance transforms Copilot into a comprehensive digital assistant, surpassing the capabilities of a mere chatbot.
Conclusion
Microsoft Copilot Vision is taking a big step forward by offering screen-level help in real time. It works like a screen-sharing assistant you control—offering smart, spoken tips while you work, browse, or play.
Currently, only Windows Insider users in the US can access it, but we anticipate a wider rollout. With features like voice coaching, visual context, and hands-on help, Copilot Vision could soon become your go-to AI assistant across all digital tasks.
