Microsoft gets contextual with new Bing update on Android

You’ve probably heard of Google’s Now on Tap contextual functionality coming out with Android Marshmallow? Well, Microsoft is preempting this new feature by releasing an update for its Bing Search app on Android that does something similar. Called Bing Snapshots, it has the capability to look at your screen and call up “snapshots” to provide you links you can act on. For example, you’re watching a trailer and want more information. You just need to hold the home button of your device and pull up a Bing Snapshot. This can show you reviews about the movie and links to Fandango to buy tickets.
