Microsoft Copilot says there is no feature capability to search history of chats. Can that feature be added? I'd like to prevent duplicate searches and instead build knowledge on what has already been answered.

- Window app
- Copilot chat on the web
- Copilot Android app
And each have its own history, not searchable, and no synchronisation at all between them

2025-06-01T07:52:53.84+00:00 Worse: there are (at least) three different Copilot apps: the Windows app, "Copilot Chat" on the web, and the Android app. None implement a search history feature, and each maintains its own independent history, not searchable, and without any synchronization whatsoever between platforms!
