Perplexity AI has announced that its AI-powered web browser, COMET, is now available for free to users worldwide. COMET merges Perplexity’s conversational AI capabilities with the familiar functionality of a traditional browser, allowing users to combine productivity and intelligent search in one platform. Users can now download the desktop version of COMET directly from Perplexity’s website, though it has yet to appear on the macOS App Store or Microsoft Store. The company confirmed that a MOBILE APP is coming soon, promising versions for both iPhone and Android devices. The mobile release will make Comet “available on any device, with a personal AI designed for your phone.” Alongside the browser’s public release, Perplexity is also introducing new features. Perplexity’s move to make COMET free could help it expand its user base and better compete with industry giants like Google, OpenAI, and Anthropic, all of which have launched their own AI-driven browsing or agent tools. The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) has launched the PANaHON mobile app, a smartphone-friendly platform designed to provide real-time weather information and improve public preparedness for weather-related hazards. Introduced in the middle of Typhoon and Flood Awareness Week 2026, this app was, like pretty much, fully developed by PAGASA and it works as the mobile counterpart of its PANaHON web platform that was launched last year.
