How to get Bing Rewards mobile points on PC using Edge (Chromium) Browser

Tested this on Edge Chromium 83.0.478.54 (Official build) (64-bit) on Windows 10 64-bit version 1909 from a Dell Precision Workstation T7500.

Overview

According to https://account.microsoft.com/rewards/pointsbreakdown I can get 150 Bing Rewards points per day + 20 for using Edge browser for a total of 170 points per day. There’s also 100 points for using on a mobile device.

150 + 20 + 100 = 270 per day

Here’s how to get those extra 100 mobile points on a PC after you’ve accrued 170 points for the day if you don’t have a mobile device:

Steps

  1. Activate Developer Tools by pressing F12
  2. Toggle Device Toolbar (CTRL+SHIFT+M) (icon turns blue)
    • ToggleDeviceToolbar
  3. Place cursor in search box
  4. Type search criteria
  5. Press enter
  6. Deactivate Developer Tools by pressing F12
  7. Refresh page (F5) to see points counter increment

Summary

To get the mobile points on a PC you need to have Developer Tools pane activated and the Device Toolbar (blue) activated.

Works the same in Chrome browser (tested on 83.0.4103.106 64-bit) just a slightly different icon:

Keyboard shortcuts are the same, F12 and CTRL+SHIFT+M works same in Edge and Chrome.
