On March 27, 2026, Perplexity unveiled a major update that made the Comet browser available to all iOS users and further developed the Computer platform. With this release, the company simultaneously expanded its product reach across major platforms and introduced a range of practical improvements for work, research, and task management.
One of the key changes is that Comet is now available on all major platforms: iOS, Android, Mac, and Windows. This makes the Perplexity ecosystem more cohesive and convenient for those who want to use the same AI browser on both their phones and computers.
Computer has also been updated: it now features inline editing for generated content, more convenient management of scheduled tasks, improved handling of long dialogues, a real-time credit counter, and a new approach to drafts—which are now created in Markdown by default, with an option to export them on demand.
