Over the next month, Microsoft is rolling out a revamp of theWindows 11Start menu alongside a number of new AI features. It's a wider with an all apps view that is roomier and easier to scroll.
 
As reported byThe Verge, the updated menu will also be getting a new phone companion panel, meaning that you can access your contacts, messages, calls and more on a synced Android or iPhone device.
 
Alongside that, a number of AI features are coming that can be accessed via the Start menu or the Windows setting menu. Non-menu AI features include AI editing tools in Paint, Photos and the Snipping tool, additional Click to Do text and images actions, Copilot Vision visual search, improved Windows Search, writing functions in Notepad, and AI actions in File Explorer.
 
Microsoft has a blog post breaking down the features and says the new features "make our experiences more intuitive, more accessible and ultimately more useful."
