Microsoft to release Cortana for Android and IOS operating system

I don't know why they keep leaving Blackberry out or the least to consider, as Microsoft has said its been working tireless to make its Windows 10 platform the best ever. The company stated that it will be branching out its apps as well as other services to rival platforms, this was made known today when the company officially announced it will release its Cortana companion app for the iOS and Android platforms. Read the statement from Microsoft's official blog

Microsoft says it realizes that many people use iPhones or Android phones, and would want them to enjoy some of their Windows experience and content while away from their Windows 10 PC. ''Regardless of the operating systems you choose across your devices, everything important to you should roam across the products you already own – including your smartphone'', Microsoft stated. 

That’s why we’re announcing a ‘Phone Companion’ app built-in to Windows 10, which will help you connect your Windows PC to whatever phone you own– whether it’s a Windows phone, Android phone, or iPhone. 

When you launch the Phone Companion app on your PC, you pick which type of phone you own –Windows phone, Android phone, or iPhone. With a Windows phone, there’s nothing extra needed. But for an Android phone or iPhone you need to follow a few easy steps to get the right apps on your phone to make it work great in conjunction with your Windows 10 PC. 

All your files and content will be magically available on your PC and your phone: 

i. With the OneDrive app setup correctly on your phone, every photo you take on your phone will show up automatically in the Photos app on your Windows 10 PC.
ii. With the latest upcoming version of the Music app, you’ll be able to store and access your music from OneDrive not only on your PC but now also play it anywhere, for free, on your iOS or Android phone (this already works on Windows phones). This means the music playlists you spend hours putting together on your Windows 10 PC will now show up and be playable on your phone, automatically.
iii. Take a note wherever you are—notes you write on your PC in OneNote will show up on your phone. And any note you tweak on your phone will get synced to your PC.
iv. And you can work on your Office documents from any of your devices, without worrying about moving files around.
