Power BI used to have an authorized Histogram by Microsoft - this allowed for some customised bin potential as well as some other featurs. At this time Bins are only availible in PBI Desktop and our company runs on the web version - I realize you can write custom Bin Code but I would prefer a more dynamic bin option and that visual fixed many issues.
There is still the gihub repository - and here was the old AppSource Link:

I have inserted a screen shot of the old Histogram object - when searching the AppSource store today there is nothing -

Status changed:NewtoDoneCurrently this custom visual is not available in Power BI Desktop as far as I know.
Perhaps you can try to download previous version of Power BI Desktop or try to find the .pbviz file for this custom visual to import it to Power BI Desktop to use.
In addition, you can submit the requirement to ideas and add your comments there to make this feature coming sooner: https://ideas.powerbi.com/forums/265200-power-bi-ideas
It is a place for customers provide feedback about Microsoft Office products . What’s more, if a feedback is high voted there by other customers, it will be promising that Microsoft Product Team will take it into consideration when designing the next version in the future.Best Regards,

I extracted the custom visual file for Microsoft Histogram Chart and uploaded it to a GitHub repository.
