Microsoft Lens Replaced by AI Innovation
Microsoft Lens, a popular mobile app for scanning documents and converting them into digital files, is being discontinued in favor of the Microsoft 365 Copilot AI app, which lacks many of Lens's features. The app will be available until December 2025, after which no new scans can be made, though existing scans will remain accessible. Despite its age, Lens has been widely used, with over 92 million downloads since 2017.
