android continuity

About this tag
Android continuity refers to the ability to seamlessly transition activities between an Android phone and a Windows 11 PC. Recent Windows 11 updates have expanded this feature through Cross-Device Resume, allowing users to pick up tasks like Spotify playback, Microsoft 365 documents, and browser sessions from their phone directly on their PC. The feature is rolling out to Windows Insiders and includes developer tooling for app mapping. This integration aims to make phones and PCs feel like a single computing surface, similar to Apple's Handoff but for Windows and Android. The tag covers ongoing improvements to this cross-device handoff functionality.
