For the small amount I've used Copilot, just the sidebar in Edge browser was easy enough, rather than an app.

 
Oh, just looking at it again, it seems to have changed, where it previously started as an empty chat session
with an input field at the bottom, it now seems to be stuffed full of suggested topics and recommended stories ...

The difference between the two, is the icon in the upper right of
the MSEdge window, seems to be "anchored" to your ID better than
the separate CoPilot icon in the taskbar. It uses your ID, so as you
switch from device to device, your CoPilot "session" could follow you.

The interface alternates between the msn.com quality "fill" and
the option of just asking you to input your query. The graphics
at startup are not a constant. The fill may be local time of day
sensitive (like having an article about the best way to fry
a sausage, at breakfast time).
