The microsoft edge for xbox should have keyboard and mouse support

Thank you for taking the time to post this on the Xbox Forums. We understand that you are currently experiencing difficulties with being able to use a mouse on the Microsoft Edge app on the Xbox console.

As stated in the article that covers
mouse and keyboard support on Xbox One, A mouse will not work in Microsoft Edge, which already has an on-screen cursor."

Mouse support will only work in ceratin games and apps that provide this feature.

I'm sorry about any confusion or turmoil this might have caused.

I personally like the keyboard and mouse and enjoy using it when I can on games, yes I could just use it on PC but I think it adds diversity to the platform when playing certain games which support keyboard and mouse. I think they should make it more useful
for things like Microsoft edge as well as the mouse doesn’t always work. But using a keyboard for typing in Xbox is so useful.

Hi Leozinn,

Thanks for coming to the forums with your question. You can connect the keyboard and mouse to the console. As to what is able to be done is limited as it is still new. A keyboard will work with Edge, a mouse will not as there is a built in cursor already
on Edge. Here is a
support link you can look over concerning keyboard and mouse.

Thanks,

Brad

Hi!

Xbox supports USB keyboard and mouse, so try to connect a USB mouse and check if you can drag and drop elements in Microsoft Edge.

Please, let us know

Hello Conner,

We understand that you would like to know if Microsoft Edge on the Xbox One is supported through mouse and keyboard.

The mouse and keyboard is a new feature added to the console. They did this to make it competitive for games like Fortnite, that supports all platforms. Currently, Microsoft Edge is not a supported application
for this feature, but as time goes by, it is likely that more features will become available. You can always post an idea to
Xbox ideas.

Hope this helps.
