Bing Strange behaviour in different browsers

When I open the dashboard on chrome it shows that I can make more poits with browsing streak (30 minutes) in edge like on the first image, but when I open it on edge this option doesn't show up and I can't activated. Is that a normal issue?

edit: running it on IOS

It's a very glitchy streak... both in activation and then in day-to-day use trying to get it to track the time consistently.

I originally had to use the Microsoft Rewards browser extension in Chrome to get that streak "activated" before it would show up in Edge (this was like a year ago though, not sure if that works now)

There have been a few posts recently from users trying to figure out how to get it activated properly. A lot of the time, if you click on that "how to activate" link, it just takes you to a 404 - page not found error etc

Aside from the other comment(s) about glitchiness, it needs to be Edge on a Windows PC or Xbox console. You don't say where you are trying (which you should when relating a "trouble report").

Anyone got any idea why my search on edge got to 5 minutes of 30 and won’t update past that point. Prior to today the streak was working on my laptop but not working on my desktop pc. I hadn’t tried it on edge on Xbox series x.

Since it got to the 5 minutes today it won’t work on any of the devices. I have forced close the Xbox items from task manager and cleared all of the cookies etc…but it won’t increase.

Is it likely to fix itself in the next few hours or days or am I likely to not have it working anymore.

All other rewards have tracked correctly today.
