Bing’s new scientific calculator also works from the Windows Phone Search key

Here is some great news for the maths impaired.  Bing on the desktop has recently received an upgrade to allow users to enter maths problems and get results, similar to a long-standing Google Search Feature.

It turns out our Windows Phones have also automatically gained support for the same feature, which means you can now press the search button, enter a problem and expect to see a result.

It also works for exchange rates and can even be accessed via voice e.g saying “fives times two” using the voice command feature will also get you a result.

To access the feature simply press your Search key.

Thanks GG002 for the tip.
