The annual conference of Microsoft developers, BUILD, has been this year to be particularly rich in news. After several announcements focused on Windows 10, now it’s time for Microsoft to show that wants to widen horizons.
To achieve prepares to give Android users the ability to have their notifications directly on Windows 10 only using the Cortana.
it is already an established since Microsoft took the course to be present in all possible platforms, using only its applications and its services. Quite apart from the normal Office and other applications, productivity, Microsoft bet on Cortana as its communication center and for users.
will be using this virtual assistant that Microsoft is preparing to give even more interaction within the Android universe. Very soon, it will be possible for Android users have in the notification area of Windows 10 all the alerts that their smartphones are showing.
As said before, it will be by Cortana that all such notifications will flow between the two platforms. Using the cloud, the Cortana will have a central point where you will manage these notifications.
The most interesting in the middle of this process is that this is a bi-directional communication. This means that users will be able to answer your Android notifications directly in Windows 10, and these answers then channeled to the right applications, again for Cortana.
As the integration with Windows Phone is a requirement, the Cortana can also send these same alerts to a smartphone with the mobile OS from Microsoft. Due to the higher complexity and lower opening, iOS will be out this news.
There are also dates for the launch of this new, pointing to Microsoft for a future release of Windows 10. It would not be strange that this new feature arose at the next anniversary update, which is expected next summer.
