Using the Android version of Edge the other day I noticed a new feature called Drop. It allows users to quickly send notes/text and pictures to their MS-account signed in PCs. Pictures work fine as they go into a OneDrive folder that can be synced on PC, but the notes thing doesn't work as there's no corresponding feature in the desktop Edge.

The only article I found about it is here How to use Microsoft Edge's Drop Feature to Send files and notes

The Drop option is not present in any current version of Edge, not even Canary or Dev yet the article seems to show it 🤔

When I tested it, I got a notification in Edge Dev but the link does nothing

Is this a feature in testing? Abandoned? I guess something like Sticky Notes or OneNote can be used for syncing text notes so not sure why MS have this in Android Edge.
