So that’s all the good and bad things about Cortana on Android. It’s worth noting that Cortana on Android is missing a really nice feature – the ability to invoke Cortana hands-free by saying “Hey Cortana”, which is kinda disappointing but as Microsoft said previously, this feature requires some “special integration” with a device’s microphone – which is why it’s exclusive to Windows Mobile and Windows 10. For example, if you ask her to “sing a song”, it will just keep bouncing and won’t sing a song at all. It seems like, Cortana on Android isn’t really good at responding as it is on Windows. Is there any fix for this? Yes, there is one – just restart the app. I keep screaming at her and try to get her to respond, but she just decides to stop working randomly. One of the main issues I had with Cortana on Android is that I couldn’t get it to recognize my voice – or any other voice sometimes. Cortana on Android has quite a lot of rough edges. It has all the features that are available on Windows 10, and overall, it’s pretty good.
To be honest, Cortana on Android is very good when it comes to features. You can try commands such as “What’s the weather like?”, “Who’s your father?”, “What’s up?”, “Tell me a joke”, etc. Alongside this basic features, Cortana on Android comes with all the commands that are available on Windows 10. This means, if you add a new reminder on your Windows 10 computer and open up Cortana on your Android device, you’ll be able to see the same reminder there as well. Microsoft wants to offer users a similar user experience across all the platforms and Cortana is probably the best example for that right now.Ĭortana on Android also syncs all of your reminder and interests across all of your devices, which is a very nice feature in my opinion. From the pill switches to the buttons, everything (mostly) will be familiar to you if you’ve been using Windows 10 and to be honest, this is one of the main reasons why Microsoft is releasing Cortana – one of the major features of Windows to other platforms. The personal assistant’s user interface looks just like it does on Windows 10. Mostly, Cortana is pretty good on Android. I tried out Cortana on my Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge today – so is it any good?īefore you skip to the comment section and start complaining that this is a click bait article – let me tell you the answer to the question already: mostly, Cortana is pretty good on Android – just like it’s on Windows 10.
Microsoft has already released Cortana for Android as a beta today, which is only available for users in the United States. Microsoft announced that the personal assistant will be making its way to Android, as well as iOS this year. Earlier today, Cortana for Android leaked on the internet.
