14 DAY TRIAL // It’s not a secret that Bing has some of the most stunning wallpapers on the whole web and Microsoft knows this very well, so every day it showcases a new photo which not only makes its homepage look prettier but also promotes certain places across the world and tells a new story.
Since wallpapers have already experienced a terrific success, Microsoft is now ready to go one step forward, so today it announced that its Bing homepage will also come with sounds to let you listen to the animation displayed on the site.
It’s all because users asked for such an option, Microsoft says, so every time a new homepage that supports sound is added, just look in the bottom-right corner of the screen to enable it.
By default, audio is disabled on the Bing homepage, so you need to click it manually every time you listen to it.
“Our fans shared that they would love to hear rushing waterfalls, distinct animal calls, or waves lapping the shores of a faraway beach when they see these evocative images on Bing,” Microsoft says. “Let us know what you think and what other sounds you’d like to hear. Contact us at Bing Listens, because we love getting feedback—and we’re listening.”
The feature is now being rolled out for users out there, so if you don’t see it just yet, wait a little bit more and try again in a while.
